Controller handles HTTP Request and Response in database. Controller is the heart of MVC Architecture.

Right click the Controllers folder and then open the context menu. In the context menu Add -> Controller and then click Controller Label (Figure 1.1)


                                                               Figure 1.1

Open Add Controller windows and enter Controller Name. You can use Scaffolding features and then select Template.

Other templates available are Empty MVC Controller, Empty MVC Controller With Read/Write.

Select Model Class table name Like “EmpMst” as in the following figure 1.2:


                                                            Figure 1.2

Select Data Context class (CRMEntities) and also select View Types.

                                                            Figure 1.3

After that select DataContext class and views. Click Add button for adding Controller. (Figure 1.4)


                                                               Figure 1.4

Scaffolding features are automatically adding Views and Controller in Action Result.

Figure 1.5 also shows Action Result in EmpController.cs file.
