1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The computer based treasury management systems have its problem facing the people making use of the system. In the year 1970, many treasurers were facing a lot of challenges and stress due to the manual operations they were making use of, but as time goes on, changes takes place as the economy environment was hit by recession which favored the emergence of new short term monetary policy instrument and the first hint of deregulation of financial market but treasury management of payment and collection and the maintenance of bank balance position.

INTERNET FACILITIES: The demand for internet user is greater than the internet centers available also the browsing capabilities is very slow making it difficult to get research material at ease because there are so many user in the internet centre.
TIME LIMITATION: A researcher cannot boast a present accuracy of the research work due to difficulties ranging from other academic work, health condition and other distraction during the period of the research work, because in the work there is limited amount of time even from the research to be carried out.
COOPERATION AMONG THE STAFF: The researcher should approach to the staff of organization treasuring management system. Some of the responses to the researcher because of fare in the society. They filled that some researcher are fraud star. I find it difficult to get the accurate information.
COMPUTER: This is an electronic device that access data work on the data to bring out information (output)
PROGRAM: This is a set of instruction which the computer can initiate specified or defined to produce a designed objective
