Besides this, staffs will have to record the booking manually and it will be difficult to produce a monthly report or an annual report. Manual system does not allow client to booking online and hard to keep track on the record of rental cars. Consequently, difficulty in manual process makes the need for computerized web based application to be developed to solve manual problems in the area of car rental services.
