Home Interiors & Gifts, Inc. - September 2003 to November 2003 (One World
Xe)
Home Interiors is a retail client on OneWorld Xe using Oracle as the
database. The client's auto-cash processed ran 2 times which corrupted the
Accounts Receivable database. The error was undetected for 2 days and the
problems proliferated. Home Interior's has thousands of small dollar
transactions per lockbox, which is posted nightly through auto-cash
process. This amounted to a potential of up to 12,000 affected clients.
Peoplesoft determined that there was no good way to resolve the issue and
the only suggestion was using SQL. This was not possible due to the time
delay and the amount of ongoing transactions. I was brought in to evaluate
the problem and to assist in resolving. Through the creation of UBE's,
working hand-on with a developer, the data cleanup was successfully
completed.
