Project work in detail:
Audit File Archiving Developed to support 4000 Audit Staff. This goal was to meet several governing body regulations for Audit File archiving and retention. My roles in this project included coding, planning, design, requirements analysis and project management. ASP.NET Written in C# with several custom components including an AJAX File Upload Control with Progress Bar, Audit File Analysis (also mentioned below) to pull information from the audit file and verify completeness, Custom Configuration component to enable easy management of configuration settings of the application, Reporting control to enable creation of custom reports using SQL syntax outputting tables and simple graphs. SQL Server SQL Database with many tables. Stored procedures and views are used to improve performance and maintainability. MS Exchange/SMTP Mail Used for email alerts, notification and workflow. Lotus Notes An existing lotus notes database is used for pick lists and drop down boxes on some forms. SAP Again SAP provides some information during form filling.
Audit File Analysis The Audit File Analysis tool was developed to analyse and produce statistics on Audit Files. This Class Library is now used by many global Deloitte offices. C# Class Library The main library and entry point provide developers with several options. It can return datasets for further analysis, output to XML, MS Access or SQL Server. It can also provide individual statistics on common aspects of an audit file e.g. File types used, Reviewer information and File status. Dynazip Controls This is a third party control used to extract files from audit file backups (Zip compression is used for audit file backups). C# Windows Forms The forms part adds a GUI to the library and also does some further more specific/custom analysis of the audit file.
MS Office Automation VBA Automated word and excel documents/templates (Engagement letters, Working papers). Use of forms, custom menus, custom toolbars. Wizard style user input dialogs. Integration with SQL, Access and XML. Some web based (ASP/VB.NET/C#/ASP.NET) templates that output word documents.
Audit Office Add-ins COM+, VB.NET and C# Microsoft Office Add-ins. Automate tasks within MS Office and Leverage existing API available within in-house products to automate common tasks and workflow. Used daily by 4000 Audit staff in the UK and also many over global Deloitte offices.
PDF Creation Secure electronic documents suitable for email communication. Classic ASP, VB.NET, ASP.NET Interfaces with a Third Party component, SQL Sever, Uploads files to be converted, Generates random passwords. Supports Word, Excel, PowerPoint, JPEG, TIFF and PS file formats. Applied one of three levels of predefined PDF security including passwords. Also adding watermarks if selected. ActivePDF Third party component used to convert files/documents to PDF format. SQL Server Records usage including security settings. This solution served many Deloitte offices within Europe and even extended to the US and Australian offices converting an average of 300 documents per day by 7000+ unique users. Saved licensing costs of Adobe Writer software in excess of £1m (UK only).
Intranets/Extranets Developed a number of intranet/extranet websites using ASP/VB.NET/C#/ASP.NET/JavaScript development languages and other technologies including XML, SQL 2000/2005, MS Access.
