Swift Bank Queueing System

✨ Project Overview

The Swift Bank Queueing System is a desktop application developed with Java in NetBeans, utilizing MySQL Workbench for database management. It's designed to efficiently manage customer queues and service operations within a bank.

This system streamlines customer flow, provides real-time service insights, and enhances overall branch efficiency.

🌟 Key Features

The Swift Bank Queueing System provides the following core functionalities:

• Ticket Generation: Allows customers to generate numbered tickets for various banking services.
• Agent Interface: Provides tools for service agents to call customers and mark tickets.
• Service Analytics: Tracks the total customers served at each counter.
• Customer Display Integration: Support for displaying currently served ticket numbers.

🛠️ Technologies Utilized

The Swift Bank Queueing System is developed with the following technologies:

• Java: The primary programming language for application logic and GUI.
• MySQL: Relational database management system for persistent storage of queue, service, and user data.
• NetBeans IDE: Integrated Development Environment used for project development and UI design.
• MySQL Workbench: Visual tool for designing, developing, and managing MySQL databases.
• JDBC: Java Database Connectivity for connecting the Java application to MySQL.

🚀 Getting Started

These instructions detail the process of setting up and executing the Swift Bank Queueing System.

📋 Prerequisites

• Java Development Kit (JDK 8+ recommended): For compiling and running Java applications.
• NetBeans IDE (Optional): For project development and modification.
• MySQL Server: Installed and running.
• Git: For repository cloning (if applicable).

⬇️ Installation

1. Clone Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/angelb9967/SwiftBank-Queue-System.git
   cd SwiftBank-Queue-System

2. Database Setup:

   • Create Database: Using MySQL Workbench or a client, create your database (e.g., bank_queue_db).
   • Import Schema: Execute the provided SQL script (e.g., schema.sql) to create tables and initial data.

3. Open in NetBeans (Optional):

   • Launch NetBeans IDE.
   • Go to File > Open Project... and navigate to the cloned repository.

4. Add JDBC Driver:

   • Ensure the MySQL JDBC driver (mysql-connector-java-x.x.x.jar) is added to your project's libraries in NetBeans.

5. Build the Project:

   • Within NetBeans, right-click the project and select Clean and Build.

▶️ Usage

Upon successful building and database configuration, the Swift Bank Queueing System can be operated as follows:

1. Execute Application:
   • From NetBeans: Right-click the project and select Run.
2. System Interaction:
   • Interact with the application's GUI to manage queues, serve customers, generate tickets, and monitor operations.
