After the parcel being sent has been processed a sent is sent with estimated time of delivery and the customers will be updated once there is a delay moreover a notification will be issued to the customers for pick up however if the receiver is a distance away they can also request a delivery thereafter the customer dashboard is updated that the meal is sent out and the estimated time of delivery once the parcel arrives at the destination then the dashboard is updated to be delivered .Since this will reduce the man required at the front desk it will reduce the loss of goods and services and accountability in terms of credit. This project is developed using PHP, JavaScript and MYSQL. This system is an online application which can be hosted online and therefore the user needs an internet connection or the company’s local area network.
