The existing system faces the following problem like;

File control mechanism is very tedious and complicated: this means every activity done by paper
based like the customer comes to the office first will register on the paper and the same to that
payment system

The customer can be register in manually: the customer can be register by come to physically.

The customer can pay directly: this means the customer can be pay physically from the financial

Difficult to get right information on time: this means the organization system works manually so
that the customer information is not order at this time it is very ambiguous to get specific user
information
