CONVERSION OF MANUAL TO COMPUTER BASED SYSTEM

Description also available in video format (attached below), for better experience use your desktop.

Introduction

·       A manual system does not rely on computers, the information is stored in files in paper form

·       Manual data processing utilizes the non technological tools which shall includes

o   Paper

o   Writing

o   Physical filling Cabinet for storage

·       The end to end process is facilitated by humans without any support of computer system

·       On the other hand, In computer based system the data is retrieved & stored in computer based programs, Excel sheet etc

·       A computer based system uses computers to collect, sort, analyse, distribute & stored the information for the business objectives

·       The main components of computer based system includes

o   Hardware

o   Software

o   Data

o   Procedures

o   & People
