Courier Management System using PHP/MySQLi with Source Code

Project: Courier Management System using PHP/MySQLi

About

The Courier Management System is a simple PHP/MySQLi project that helps a courier company or businesses manage their customers' parcels or packages details. The system stores all the branches or the company that can be also used when setting a destination where the recipient will pick up their packages or parcels. The system has a tracking feature where can help to monitor the movement of the customer's parcel. The system has 2 types of user which is the Admin user and the Branch Staff user. The Admin user can manage all the data in the system including managing the branches and branches staff user. The Branch user can only track a parcel and manage the list of parcels where the origin or the destination of a parcel under the logged-in staff branch. The couriered items have multiple statuses which are the "Item Accepted by Courier", "Collected", "Shipped", "In-Transit", "Arrived At Destination", "Out for Delivery", "Ready to Pickup", "Delivered", "Picked-up", and "Unsuccessful Delivery Attempt". These statuses will help to determine the movement of the parcel. The system also generates a report between two dates and selected status. The couriered items of the clients can be set into "Deliver" and "Pickup". The parcels that marked as "Deliver" are the items to be delivered directly to the recipient while the "Pickup" will be delivered to the branch of the company near to the recipient address. The system admin or staff user can store or adds multiple items at the same time but these items will be stored in the database separately because each package has a different reference number or different tracking number. For example, Client 1 has 3 boxes of the package to be couriered in the same recipient, the system user can submit the parcel registration to the system at once but will be stored separately so that the system will generate a different unique reference number in each item so that they can track easily each items.
