Creation of key user tools within a master data application
Project duration: 7 months
Brief description
Creation of a key user tool within the customer’s master data application (individual software). A separate area is created for certain users of the system, in which the processing of errors and irregularities can be checked. The functionality is used to monitor and assess functional and technical errors.
Supplement
The master data application is programmed with Visual Studio 2008 in the C# language and the key user tool is also developed in this project. The database is accessed via SQL Server 2008 R2. Errors that occur are saved as independent database entries. These are updated if the errors recur. If an error has been marked as fixed, and it happens again, a new data record is written. Errors can be distinguished by their technical category.
Subject description
Before the introduction, the technical and functional errors that occur were only stored in log files that were only accessible to the administration of the application. As a result, specialist users cannot detect the reason why the execution of process was not completed. Using the tool, errors relating to the functional categories of settlement, interface processing, and the generation of invoices and discount documents can be checked and marked as cleared. Only particular users receive authorization for this area via the existing authorization concept.
