  • Allow users to retrieve data via web services
  • Overlay/Form layout modification
  • Multi-system integration
  • Complete "ERP" creation and "ERP" modification/manipulation
  • Diagnostic, injection and manufacturing machine integration with IBM AS400 and iSeries
  • Communicate with other entities via web services
  • Technologies:  MAPICS, Java, SOAP web services, RESTful webservices, XML, Javascript, RPG ILE, RPG CGI, RPG III, RPG IV and HTML

   

 

 

Pharmacy - Multi Facility

  • Encables S/36 COBOL to communicate with a document managment system via web services.
  • Technologies: Java, RPG and web services.

 

World Wide Financial Institution:

 

Created programs and modified existing programs to create the new ARS web site for use by company personel and Banking Institutions.  This would allow everything to be entered via a website, but use the AS/400 as the data storing, data reporting to the business and banking personel and IRS reporting for the banking institutions.  Modified the home grown implementer program to allow for RPG IV coded programs to be installed.  All new prograrms were coded in RPG IV.  Coded interfaces between the JAVA layer and the AS/400.  Coded trigger programs to record data changes.  Additional  responsibles included maintaining the existing system while the new development was being done.  Created report programs that generated data files for Crystal Reports to use.

 

Food Distribution:

Created new programs in RPG IV that allow for order processes between what is called an Upstream Distribution Center and a Downstream Distribution Center.  Some items are kept in a central Distribution Center (the Upstream DC) that many other distribution centers (the Downstream DC) can access.  This way, the slower moving items are kept in one distribution center (the Upstream DC) instead of taking up space in many distribution centers.

I created programs and modified existing programs to create the new ARS web site for use by WKFS Personnel and Banking Institutions.  This would allow everything to be entered via a website, but use the AS/400 as the data storing, data reporting to the WKFS and banking personnel and IRS reporting for the banking institutions.  I also modified the home grown implementer program to allow for RPG IV coded programs to be installed.  All new prograrms were coded in RPG IV.  Coded interfaces between the JAVA layer and the AS/400.  Coded trigger programs to record data changes.  I also was responsible for maintaining the existing system while the new development was being done.  Created report programs that generated data files for Crystal Reports to use.

 

For Nash Finch:
We created new programs in RPG IV that allow for order processes between what is called an Upstream Distribution Center and a Downstream Distribution Center.  Some items are kept in a central Distribution Center (the Upstream DC) that many other distribution centers (the Downstream DC) can access.  This way, the slower moving items are kept in one distribution center (the Upstream DC) instead of taking up space in many distribution centers.

Operational improvement is more than just putting in an 'ERP', tight controls on inventory turn and accurate reporting.  It is the marriage between what your critical IT systems add to the value of your operations and the processes upon which the data is extracted and reported.
