The ESports Partners allows customers to add items in a shopping cart without losing the items ordered. Customers may view the contents of their shopping cart at any time and may add or delete items as needed. The program automatically calculates the subtotal, sales tax, shipping charges, and grand total. When a customer decides to checkout, the order information including the buyer\'s name, address and billing instruction is emailed to the order department and a receipt is sent to the customer. This module also allows users to be assigned different roles like system admin, staff, customers and manage their profiles

This Project contains two Modules:

• Kroger-3D and
• Kroger-SCR

The main theme of the Module Kroger -3D, is to collect the items that have one or more UN Codes assigned to them by Kroger external business partner, 3E. For each item classified as hazardous, flammable or agricultural, generate a Bill of Lading which meets Federal DOT regulations and treat the products as “flow” so that they are sent directly to the stores rather than being warehoused.

Kroger’s Stores SCR module involves enhancement and maintenance of stores applications running to
keep its retail business floating. In this module we will resolve the defects in the application which is in
production stage. Kroger Corporation has initiated this Module to provide improved performance and
features in the applications which in turn may result in more productivity in the business processes
