The key entities of this system are administrator,
efforts, departments,Employees , projects, knowledge elements. The activities

departments and projects that are associated with it. The administrator of the
organization is sole responsible for the maintenance of the entire system.

employees) then the administrator can manually handle the system but, if the
size increases then managing the work will be cumbersome, tedious and error
prone.

so that by involving the GUI any authorized employee can access the system for
viewing the efforts And the task of the administrator becomes easy.

which help the manager to take timely decisions and provide a better and more
efficient service.A proper system is the one that has good management and a
good management always requires the information in all fields in a proper and
effective manner.
