 Abstract— This paper entitled Automation for Customer

Care System is total end to end solution for all types of companies which provide support to customer. In effect,

we maintain a helpdesk database of all details like all

queries, problems and solutions. Also it will maintain all

the database of super user, corporate client and corporate

user. We are attempting to improve our existing system

that helps many end users when they know their problem

after communicating. 

Customer Care System is very useful for the corporate

clients who want their business to extend worldwide i.e.,

by keeping contact and good relation with the corporate

users who buy their products. The corporate clients whobuy Customer Care System for their business can know

the various problems of their product which are coming

from their users so that they improve their products to the

user needs. Any user who knows a little about of the

computer can handle Customer Care System.

I.  I NTRODUCTION 

Customer Care System is customer care management system.

Customer Care System is called Help Desk System. It is so

called as Help Desk System because it tries to solve all the

HD (helpdesk) problems, which are coming from the users of 

Customer Care System. Customer Care System will take care

of every request coming from their users and try to solve and 

 produce the solution of the particular request. Customer Care

System also will store the responses for the future use.

Customer Care System contains six main members who play

very important role in this Help Desk System. They include

super user, level 1 administrator, level 2 administrator, level 3

administrator, corporate client user and corporate user (or end-

user).

Super user is the chief head of the organization that assigns

first level, second level, and third level administrators. The

super user is responsible for all the three level administrators

including the corporate clients. The Super user is the sole

 person who is responsible for creating categories, modules and 

the support team.

Super user creates new categories only if HD problems don’t

 belong to those categories present in Customer Care System

and similarly with the creation of modules. When the super 

user creates new categories and modules he will label these

categories and modules as levels and appoint one

administrator for each of them. When the super user gets the

HD problem as request he can modify the request or can

answer it by sending solution to the level3 or the support team

who is responsible for messaging the response or the solution

to the end-user (corporate user).

Corporate client is the one who buys Customer Care System

Product for his business purpose. He can create corporate

users for his product. Corporate user is the one who has to

register himself to the corporate client before he submits the

HD problems to the super user and corporate user is the actual

end-user of the product or service.

Corporate user will register to the corporate client and 

corporate client sends all the registration details to the super 

user, and after the registration the end-user will submit the HD

 problems to the super user. When the super user gets the HD

 problems he will check the details of the end-user and send the

responses to the support team who will message the responses

to the corporate users.

II.  EXISTING SYSTEM 

This project mainly deals with automating the task of the

Customer Care System (CCS) that helps many end-users to

know the solutions for their request within no time. Customer 

Care System can be done manually but there may be problems

that have to be faced so to overcome such problems. We need 

to automate the Help Desk System.

If the system is maintaining the list of all the details of 

corporate users and corporate clients, manually it will take a

lot of time to retrieve even single information such as

retrieving or deleting single information becomes very

difficult task.

The updates for the list such as creating a new creating new

end-user details or creating new corporate client details and 

including the details of the categories and the modules that are

created newly by the super user becomes very difficult

manually. Once all information is provided manually it

 become quite difficult for updating the records with new

information manually, so we automate the system to overcome

all such difficulties.

III. PROPOSED SYSTEM 

Proposed system are those that are automated, so that it is easy

to retrieve the responses from the system and updating the

details once the response or services are provided to the end-

users upon their request without any difficulty and saves time.

IV. PROJECT MODULES 

Customer Care System [help desk system] is a customer caremanagement system. The following are the modules related to

Customer Care System [help desk system] are as follows:1.  User Module2.  Super User Module

3.  Administration Module

4.1 User Module

In this module user can register themselves to the Customer Care System if they are new users, otherwise they can login

directly and can then post their queries to Customer CareSystem. First user has to register with corporate client. Inorder to send request the end-user has to login and the login

details are stored in the database maintained by Customer 

Care System. Database checks the details of the user, if he isvalid then allows the user to access the help desk system.

Corporate Client User:

A Corporate Client User (CCU) is one who buys customer care products. He can create corporate users for his productand related field.

Corporate User:

A Corporate User (CU) is one who the one who registers

himself with the corporate client and who is the actual end-

user of the product or service.

4.2 Super User Module

In this module Super user is the chief head of the Organization

who assigns 1st

level and 3rd 

level administrators. The super 

user is responsible for all the three levels administrators

including the corporate clients. The super user is the sole

 person who is responsible for creating categories, modules and 

support team.

Super User will take all the registration details of theCorporate Users so as to check with the queries which in turnconsist of the query and also the user id.

Super user has the right to remove any level or add any leveland also responsible for creating modules and categories.

4.3 Administration Module

Depending upon categories and modules created by super user the three levels are allotted. They are three types of administrator:

Level 1 Administrator:

Level 1 Administrator: the first level administrator is the onewho can add HD problems to a category created by the super 

user.

Level 2 Administrator:

The second level administrator is the one who can add HD problems to the modules.

Level 3 Administrator:

The third level administrator is a member of the support team

who provides services to the corporate clients and corporate

users.

V. PRODUCT FEATURES
