Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 Introduction to E-commerce
E-commerce means using the Internet and web for business transaction and for commercial
transaction, which typically involve the exchange of value (e.g., money) across organizational
or individual boundaries in return for products and services. Here we focus on digitally
enabled commercial transactions among organizations and individuals.
E-business applications turn into e-commerce precisely, when an exchange of value occurs.
Digitally enabled to transactions include all transactions meditated by digital technology and
platform; that is transactions that occur over the internet and the web.
An e-commerce website is information technology method in which traders,
business/distributors/markets can sell product/services and the customer can purchase on that
website electronically by using the internet on the mobile and computer. It means an e-
commerce website is an online shop. E means electronic. Commerce means business. Website
means the group of HTML web pages and that is created to market /sell
information/product/services.
Some basic types of E-commerce are listed below:
• Business-to-Business(B2B)
• Business-to-Consumer(B2C)
• Consumer-to-Business(C2B)
• Consumer-to-Consumer(C2C)
1.2 Introduction to MIS
Management Information System or ‘MIS’ is a planned system of collecting, storing, and
discriminating data in the form of information needed to carry out the functions of
management.
1
The three components of MIS provide a more complete and focused definition, where
system suggests integration and holistic, view, Information stands for processed data, and
Management is the ultimate user, the decision makers.
Management information system can thus be analyzed as follows:
1.2.1 Management
Management covers the planning, control, and administration of the operation of a concern.
The top management handles planning, the middle management concentrates on controlling,
and the lower management is concerned with actual administration.
1.2.2 Information
Information, in MIS, means the processed data that helps in management in planning,
controlling and operations. Data means all the facts arising out of the operations of the
concern. Data is processed i.e., recorded, summarized, compared and finally presented to the
management in the form of MIS report.
1.2.3 System
Data is processed into information with the help of a system. A system is made up of inputs,
processing, output and feedback of control.
Thus, MIS means a system for processing data in order to give proper information to the
management for performing its functions.
The major components of a typical MIS long form (Management Information System) are:
• People - people who use the information system.
• Data - the data that the information system records.
• Business Procedures - procedures put in the place on how to record, store and analyze
data.
• Hardware - these include servers, workstations, networking equipment, printers, etc.
• Software – these are programs used to handle the data. these includes programs such
as spreadsheet programs, database software, etc.

1.3 Introduction to e-commerce site
Ecommerce online shopping has become popular business and had increased rate in business
sector. It has made rapid competition among them. Booker online shopping store is one of
them that is in Itahari. It provides a lot of young plants.
List of Books available in Booker online store are as follow:
• Novels
• Biography
• Audiobook
One of the weaknesses when doing such a system is the calculation of money which is done
manually, and end process of calculation is to know the income. If we use paper-based, it will
spend much time. Therefore, it can give disadvantage in many cases. Paper-based system will
make difficult the worker when giving service toward their customers or guests.

Chapter 2: Planning
2.1 Introduction
The success of a strategy in ecommerce should be measured by the sales that are generated
and ultimately profits made. The most important thing is to have strategy and to define this
by setting and measuring ongoing targets and goals against your plan.
2.2 The E-commerce Planning Process
The e-commerce planning process must have a six key steps that`ll get you up and running
with e-commerce. It covers the key skills, systems and sales know-how you need to drive e-
commerce success.
a) Identify the opportunity.
b) Validate the opportunity.
c) Channel planning
d) Develop experiences.
e) Sell
f) Evaluate and optimize.
a) Identify the opportunity.
The first step of the e-commerce planning process is to identify the opportunity. What
benefit is e-commerce going to have for your target audience and your brand? What
ecommerce insights do you have that make you confident you`ll make money selling
online?
You need to spend time defining the opportunity more specifically than just “sell online”.
That’s too broad.
The move to sell online is like the decision to launch a new product.
b) Validate the opportunity.
4
So, once you`ve identified the opportunity, you need to test out if it is big enough to be
worth pursuing. There`s no single best way to do this. It very much depends on the size
and nature of the opportunity. And your approach to opportunities and risks.
c) Channel planning
Once you’ve identified and identified the overall e-commerce planning opportunity
for your business, it`s now time to think about where you will sell online.
d) Develop experiences.
This is where there are a series of steps consumers go through before they become
loyal and regular purchasers.
So, they need to trust your brand, be aware of your brand, be persuaded to consider
it and so on.
e) Sell
Once you have all these elements of the ecommerce planning process lined up, then
your focus moves on to how to continue to sell your products online.
f) Evaluate and optimize.
To setting up an online store and online retailers, we expand more on the day to day
operations of online selling once you’ve gone through the ecommerce planning
process.
On-going, it`s important to think like a retailer.

2.5 Feasibility Analysis
Feasibility Analysis is an assessment of the practicality of a proposed website. It provides the
degree of viability of a proposed website. A feasibility analysis helps us to determine the
value of the proposed website, whether there is a market for the proposed website, determine
if the proposed website is financially viable, and eventually, decide whether or not it is worth
investing time and money into the proposed website project. In short, a feasibility analysis
evaluates the projects potential for success. Following Feasibility Analysis was performed
prior to working on the website project.

Chapter 3: Network Infrastructure
3.1 Network Infrastructure
The network infrastructure of E-commerce: Network Infrastructure is required for e-
commerce to transport content. I-way is a high-capacity, interactive electronic pipeline used
to transfer content in case of ecommerce.
I-way can transfer any type of context like, text, graphics, audio, video. In other words,
multimedia contents are easily transported through I-way.
A network can be defined as: -
• Building block of E-commerce.
• Technologies to integrate Business Process
• Mediator for Digital transmission of Digital
• Content/Message/File/DATA
• The interaction between Entities of business
• Like Supplier/Distributor/Partner etc.
• A framework with security and ease.
World Wide Web
• Motivation: Developing a global distributed hypermedia system.
• Started 1989 by a research paper issued by Tim Berners-Lee who worked at the
CERN.
• 1993: First usable browser (MOSIAC) issued.
• 1994: Foundation of World Wide Web Consortium(W3C)- W3C then started
developing HTML, HTTP and style sheets.
Internet
The internet is the entirety of all connected computers that use the package of internet
protocols at their network systems topmost layer. The collection of internet protocols
8
implements a packet-oriented Wide Area Network for connecting networks of diverse
protocols and different connection characteristics.
WWW
The world wide web (www) is a distributed hypermedia system that relies on some of the
internet`s services. Most important are the naming service provided by the Domain Name
Service (DNS) and the quite reliable connection-oriented transmission service provided by
the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).
3.2 Connecting to the Internet
• Dial-up Connection: computers that are serving only as a clients need not be
connected to the internet permanently. Computers connected to the internet via a dial-
up connection usually are assigned a dynamic IP address by their ISP (Internet service
provider).
• Leased Line Connection: servers must always be connected to the internet. No dial-
up connection via modem is used, but a leased line. Costs vary depending on
bandwidth, distance and supplementary services.
In these Given Network of Internet, it would be easy to use as well as no issue will
be found while running the website.
• WPA
• 3G
• 4G
• 5G
3.3Components of I-way:
• Consumer access equipment.
• Local on-ramps,
• Global information distribution networks.
9
Consumer access equipment are devices used by consumers to access the multimedia
interactive contents of e-commerce. In this segment, hardware and software vendors are also
included.
Local or access road, or on ramps: this segment of I-way simplifies linkages between
businesses, universities, and homes to the communications backbone. These are four different
types of provider of access ramps: - telecom-based- cable-TV- based-wireless-based and –
computer-based online information services. These providers link users and e-commerce
application providers.
Global information distribution networks are the infrastructure that is connecting countries
and continents.

Chapter 4: Process of Building Website
4.1 process of website Building
This online shopping websites is a single vendor website, which is made on WordPress CMS
platform,
Some step of the procedure of website building are as follow:

11
Chapter 5: Payment Gateway
5.1 payment Gateway
A payment gateway is an e-commerce application service application service which facilitates
the sharing of relevant information between banks during an attempted credit or debit card
transaction. It allows the appropriate information to be sent to the acquiring bank, and then
collects a response from the issuing bank (whether the exchange has been approved or
declined).
Generally, the service is needed by any business that wants to trade online and accept card
payments from its customers. With the total value of B2C e-commerce sales currently
standing at almost RS1.5 trillion year- and major growth accepted in the coming years- this
group is likely to include many commercial organizations.
In my e-commerce application, I integrate E-Sewa as a Payment Gateway.

Chapter 6: Handling Security Issue
6.1 Handle security issue
In our website, admin panel handle the security by different layer.
If anyone try to login and access, our admin panel must be:
• Enter the correct username/Email and password which is stored in database and then
only one can access.
• If username/Email Id is correct but password doesn’t match from database, unable to
login.
• Consumer also goes through the same process for login on own dashboard to buy
products.
