LOAN SERVICE SYSTEM 1.1 The list of username and passwords to test the application: Username: Password: Welcome12 Username: Password: Welcome Special features in the project: Some of the features that we included in the Loan Service System are, 1. In this application users can apply for an education loan. 2. User has to register his/her details to apply for a loan. A user is generally a student who has completed high school education and is going to college. 3. User will receive the confirmation once the loan is approved. 4. After the payment is done to the student, he again gets a credited mail to his/her registered address. 5. The user has to login to see the loan details. 6. Upon successful login, the user is redirected to My Account page where various details about the loan like the current balance, monthly payment amount, due amounts, current amount and statement due date are displayed. 7. There is a feature called "Recover My Password" where users can retrieve their password which will be sent to their registered mail id. 1.3 Future scope: Implementing online form to fill loan application. This eliminates the paper work in the present system. Making the interface more user-friendly. Providing admin an interface to manage system. 2. INTRODUCTION The software product to be produced is Loan Service System which will automate obtaining a education loan system. This online system manages loan accounts of students. The system consists of admin and student modules. When a person logs in to the system, system will be able to identify whether he is a student or administrator. If the user logs into system as a student, he/she will be able to see all the loan details, last account update dates, payment dues, and statement due dates. If the user logs into system as an admin, he will be able to update all the student details and make necessary changes to the system like addition or removal of students who are no longer students and are not active with the respective system. The proposed project contains mainly three modules: I. Admin Module. II. Student Module. 3

DESIGN OVERVIEW Application can be used for applying education loans and maintain all the student loan accounts. Generally student has to approach a bank or any credit unions to apply for a loan which is a waste of time. To eliminate such problems our online system is very useful. Students can register first with the system to view and manage their loan accounts. Lack of prompt updating- various changes to information like interest rates and updating of loan account details is delayed as paper work is involved. The system lacks online web form to fill a loan application. This is included in the future scope of the project. Loan Service System helps the students to apply for loans and manage their loan accounts, reducing the necessity of going physically to banks and credit unions. They can view various details by logging into system like current balance, monthly payment amount, due amounts and current amount. The students are provided with password recovery option, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ s), Forums, and Contact us options to ensure no problem in using the system. Only registered student can interact with the system. To apply for a loan, User should have to go through 3 steps Step1: Register with the system by clicking on the Login link and further clicking the Register Now link. The user has to provide a valid address and other personal details like social security number (SSN), date of birth, first name, last name, and address. Step2: Login Page, where you login into the site and can view various details related to his/her loan account. Step 3: My Account Page, the main page which displays all the account details. 4

STEPS TO DEVELOP AND DEPLOY THE APPLICATION 7.1 Develop Application: 9

10 In order to develop a web application using ASP.NET the following should be installed in the developer PC. 1. Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 or higher 2. Microsoft SQL Server Express 3. IIS Follow the below steps to create the project and individual project files, 1. Open visual studio IDE, Click on File New Project 2. New project dialog will be opened. Choose Visual C# web empty web application and give appropriate name 10

11 3. An empty project with default class files, reference files and web.config files will be created 4. To add default.aspx page. Select the project solution name and right click to select new item and then empty aspx page 11

12 5. Design all the client/server control as per requirement and edit their properties using CSS and control properties dialog. 12

13 7.2 Deploy Application: To deploy the web application, all the configuration about the web server should be configured using the publish menu. Select the project solution name, right click and select publish menu item. The publish web dialog will then open. Configure the web server name as DCM Server and go to the connection tab to input the publish method as FTP, Server address pointing to the given web DCM server at uhcl.edu, give user login details and finally give the destination URL to open after publishing the web application. The user can click on validate connection button to test if the connection is successful with the given configuration settings. After all the settings are given click on the publish button to publish the web application. If the hosting is successful then it opens the website URL and displays the contents designed using the ASP.NET. If there are any issues with the coding or hosting then the URL returns an error code. Most of the issues can be easily found using the error code. The developer can also verify if the hosting is successful by going to the ftp path and check manually if it contains all the necessary files under pages folder. 8.
