&unctiona' Requirements :
G(I 2escribes the graphical user interface if present. This section should include a set of screen dumps or mockups to illustrate user interface features. 1.Description The user interface must be customi*able by the administrator 2.Criticality This issue is essential to the overall system. -ll the modules provided with the software must fit into this graphical user interface and accomplish to the standard defined. 3.Technical issues )n order to satisfy this re7uirement the design should be simple and all the different interfaces should follow a standard template. There will be the possibility of changing colors and images, plus switching between interfaces with the minimum impact for the users. 4.Risks To reduce the circumstances under which this re7uirement mightn8t able to be satisfied, all the designers must have been developed web sites

previously and they must be aware of html restriction and cross browsers implementations before starting the designing. )n order to reduce the probability of this occurrence the entire design team will be trained in basic html development and macromedia fireworks, this tool will be used instead of 1hotoshop. 5.Dependencies with other requirements -ll user interfaces should be able to interact with the user management module and a part of the interface must be dedicated to the login/logout module.
