could not be able to handle the massive volume of orders. Under the old manual ordering systems, it takes up too much time to process. Real time ordering and improved efficiency has been the focus of entrepreneurs. As with many business scenarios, getting rid of paper improves efficiency, reduces human error and allows information to flow to an infrastructure without a time consuming data input process. There is also less chance of handwritten orders being misread and a higher customer turnaround as customers will be served faster.

Through this chapter, the readers can familiarize to the study of the proponents. The related and previous studies presented in this chapter would give the readers and future researchers, an idea of the proposed system of the proponents. The proponents selected and reviewed these studies and previous works to provide information for the readers.

Chapter III METHODOLOGY
Research Design This research was concerned generally to see how new technologies come into the Everyday lives of different people, through online services. In order to complete the study, certain activities were accomplished. The proponents reviewed the current enrollment system of 3Ms Pizza. How they manage their Ordering system, the manual way. The proponents reviewed the data for consistency and completeness and verified question data with the company in the said school. In our opinion, the compilation of this information provided reasonable estimates of Online Ordering of 3Ms Pizza at any given time. Requirement analysis is the first step conducted by the proponents to describe the entire task. Requirements analysis is important part of the software engineering process,
xiii
whereby system analysis or software developer identifies the needs or requirements system. Requirements were gathered from the pizza parlor by conducting interview to their staff . The proponents studied, established and identified the list of valid problems being encountered in the process of the manual system. After identifying all of the problems encountered in the current system, the proponents analyzed the system needs by creating Data Flow Diagram to graphically chart the input process and output processes. The proponents made some necessary recommendation on what should be done to improve the current state of the enrollment. The information that was collected by the proponents was used for the logical design of the information system. In this phase the proponents created an organized form and screen design for effective input records. Aside from that, user interface was also developed so that the user can connect with the system. Database was also created to minimize the redundancies of the data and help to improve the organization of records. Before the system could be used, it should first be tested if there are still errors being encountered. The files of the existing system are converted to new ones and transferred in the new system; equipments are also installed in the site to be used with the system productively. Sources of Data Both primary and secondary data were used in the study. Primary data like interviews were made to gather information needed for the study. Secondary data such us

research results from the Thesis Section, Research engines from the internet and the files that was given to the proponents by the school. Instrumentation and Data Collection The proponents used some instruments to gather information in conducting this study like communication letter which was used to request for a permission to implement the study with the approval of the Manager. The proponents then conducted an interview on the person involved in the Online Ordering system to have a better understanding on how the current system works. Other sources of information are the company documents and which contains information necessary for generating reports. Information gathered through pizza parlor documents is insufficient for the handbook only gives the history of 3Ms Pizza; however in the interview the proponents found out that the customers files are not secured from unauthorized personnel, data loss and inconsistency for it is manual and only placed on a cabinet.

Chapter IV DISCUSSION OF DESIGN
Use Case The proponents would be using CASE tools to draw the modeling constructs needed for the database that would serve as the back end of the system. It would also be used for the code generation that would contain the database definition commands that would be passed to a database management system.
