ABSTRACT

The work presents a design of a electronic payment in business organisation.  Online is direct communication between a user and a computer which allows a request to be processed and the results displayed immediately on the terminal screen. Electronic payment in business organisations are used for processing of student various fees like accommodation fee and school fee etc.  The design was implemented to facilitate the payment system for UNN administration.  It will be less time wasting and cheap to run. It is expected that if full consent is given to this, it will enhance the bursary department UNN administration. This design is achieved with Macromedia Dream weaver, flash and fireworks, Visual Basic and Microsoft Access.

ORGANIZATION OF WORK

This project work is primarily designed to give an insight to Electronic payment in business organisations.

Chapter one talks about introduction to Electronic payment in business organisations UNN Enugu, study of problem and objectives as well as definition of the scope.

          Chapter two comprises the literature review. Chapter three gives the detailed information about the existing (old) system, while chapter four and five deals with the design and implantation of new system.

          Chapter six document the project work, while chapter seven summaries,  conclusion and suggestions were made.

A law to establish a University in the Eastern Region of Nigeria was passed in 1955. While that date marks the formal beginning of the history of the University of Nigeria, the enactment of this legislation was the culmination of many years of thought and discussion by several Nigerian leaders, and inspired particularly by the then Premier of the Eastern Region, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe. One of the first steps taken by the Eastern Nigeria Government towards the implementation of its commitment was an invitation to both the United States of America and the United Kingdom to send advisers to help in the planning of physical and educational aspects of the proposed university.

Under the joint auspices of the Inter-University Council for Higher Education and Overseas and the International Co-operation Administration (now the United States Agency for International Development), J.W. Cook, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Exeter, Dr John A. Hannah, President of Michigan State University and Dr Glen L. Taggart, Dean of International Programmes at the same university, came to Nigeria in 1958. The team surveyed the site at Nsukka, and extensively investigated a great variety of factors pertinent to the establishment of a new university. The results of their efforts were contained in a white paper issued by the Eastern Nigeria Government on 30 November 1958. They had recommended “that the development of the University of Nigeria based upon the concept of service to problems and needs of Nigeria, is a desirable project and one that should receive support from any source which could help to make it a sound endeavour”.

They further recommended that a provisional council be established to “draw upon the technical and consultative resources available throughout the world for help in planning the institution”.

This provisional council, authorized by the Eastern Nigeria Legislature, was appointed by the Governor in Council in April 1959, and given necessary financial and administrative powers to build a sound university.

The provisional council reflected the spirit of international cooperation which has given birth to the institution. It consisted of Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, Chairman, Dr T. Olawale Elias and Dr Okechukwu Ikejiani from the Federation of Nigeria, J.S. Fulton from the United Kingdom, Dr Margueritue Cartwright and Dr Eldon Lee Johnson from the United States of America.

The University was formally opened on 7 October 1960, as the climax to the Nigerian independence celebrations in the Eastern Region. Her Royal Highness, Princess Alexandra of Kent, representing Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at the Nigerian independence celebrations, performed the opening ceremonies and laid the foundation stone of one of the University’s early buildings.

Classes began on 17 October 1960 with an enrolment of 220 students and 13 members of the academic staff. The opening convocation addresses were delivered by the Chairman of the Provisional Council, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, the first President of the Federation of Nigeria, and by Dr John A. Hannah, President of Michigan State University, USA. Thus was the University born?

1.1   STATEMENT OF PROBLEM

Owing to:

  • The difficulties people encountered during payment of school fees.
  • Time wasted in manual processing of school fee receipt.
  • Improper accounting for school fees collected.
  • Many receipt that full the office.
  • Time wasted in sorting student receipts.
  • Unable to collect and process for many people school fee receipt at a time.

The need arise for the development of Electronic payment in business organisations for the institution.
