Online auction is a group which is based for auction. If you want to something sell by auction then you post that on website. It just a selling of products. This project user can do a bid on particular Products. The main objective of the e-Auction process must be to obtain best value and the highest price. It cannot be possible to achieve best value outcomes whilst the focus remains on price. There are two categories of persons one is customers and second one is vendor. Vendor can sell his products on this website and customer will purchase it. Product will be given to those customer who put a high bid price on product to purchase. One user can do a more than one bid on products. There are two categories of persons one is customers and second one is vendor. Both have their own registration form.

There is a common login page for vendors and for users but when both login in, it would be easily find out that ether it is a vendor or a user because of their registration details because their registration forms are different. There are two home page i.e. one page behave different if vendor login then show the vendor’s menu or if customer will login then customer menu will show.Coustomers should have an appropriate knowledge of the e- Auction subject its market, its market price.. In this website anyone wants to sell products will have to register first then a unique id is given to the registered users. After registered user have to give details of their products like (price of product ,at what price he/she wants to start the bid, image of the product) if he/she wants to sell his/her product . Product will be given to that customer who put a high bid price on product to purchase. One user can do a more than one bid on products. After completion of bidding process all the bids are check and the product will give to that customer for purchase who has a high bid price. The bidding exercise will have a specified opening and closing time. The E-Auction will close when no new bids are received and the closing time has expired. If however, a new (lower) bid is received just before the Scheduled closing time, the allocated bidding time will be extended. User can also give their feedbacks about on this project. There would be Three type of feedback which user can give they would be negative, positive. And average experience of this project. If user have problem related and wanted to know that what is e-auction they can chat with the experts through live chat.

Online Auction is loaded with features and functionality that allows you to create an auction that is powerful and useful for buyers and sellers.

1. User (customer, vendor)

In our project there are two types of users one is customer who wants to buy products by auctions and another is vendor who wants to sell his products.

At the time of registration user can select that he want to be a vendor, customer or both. If he select vendor he can login with his vendor id and password vendor can add his product details, edit existing product detail and he can delete product also. But he can’t participate on auctions to bid on a product.

If he registers as a customer then he will login with his customer id and password he can choose any product which is available for auction from the menus then he can bid on that product. But he can’t set any product for auction to sell.

If he selects both at the time of registration he can buy and sell products he can perform all the functions of customer and vendor.

2. Auction management

In auction management module there are many sub modules

For vendor

· Add a product

When a user clicks on ADD A PRODUCT dropdown will open in which user enters details about their products like (price of product, at what price he/she wants to start the bid, image of the product).Help is also available for users “how to add a product for auction”.
