Computerized Enrollment System
I.0 INTRODUCTION
Information System (IS) or application landscape is any combination of information technology and people's activities using that technology to support operations, management, and decision-making. In a very broad sense, the term information system is frequently used to refer to the interaction between people, algorithmic processes, data and technology. In this sense, the term is used to refer not only to the information and communication technology (ICT) an organization uses, but also to the way in which people interact with this technology in support of business processes. Some make a clear distinction between information systems, and computer systems ICT, and business processes. Information systems are also different from business processes. Information systems help to control the performance of business processes. One type of Information System is Transaction Processing System. Transaction processing systems (TPS) automate the handling of data about business activities or transactions, which can be thought of as simple, discrete events in the life of an organization. The analysis and design of TPS means focusing on the firm’s current procedures for processing transactions, whether those procedures are manual or automated. The focus on current procedures implies a careful tracking of data capture, flow, processing and output. The goal of TPS development is to improve transaction processing by speeding it up, using fewer people, improving efficiency and accuracy, integrating it with other organizational information systems or providing information not previously available. One example of Transaction processing system is Enrollment System. Enrollment system that will provide the needed and storing information in a faster, more convenient way by storing file of the student enrollees in a computer system that will lessen the effort of faculty staff in storing files of each student every now and then. This will also server as information
