Feasibility
The functions and attributes defined can be implemented with in the cost and time constraints. The major problem with video rental systems is they do not provide the employees with simple transactions. The new rental system will provide a user-friendly interface, an easy to use menu option screen, and furnish information about customers in timely manner. The direct contribution of the proposed system will result in more business for the video store and minimal time and cost expenses on training employees to use the system

2.USE CASES
Typical Course of Events
A customer comes into the store. If they do not have an account we can register them and issue them a card. Then they can search for a video, rent one or return one.
If a customer cannot find a video on the shelf, the clerk can search the store records to see if we have that video, and if so, what is the status of that video.
Once a customer makes a selection, the clerk scans their store ID and the video. The customer account and the video records are updated, and the customer is given the charges.
When a video is returned the clerk scans the video, the records are updated (including late fees if applicable), and the video is set to return to the shelf.
