VOLTS use Microstrategy 7.5 to generate reports and Oracle 9i as its

backend. VOLTS run on citric server. Currently VOLTS application has been

upgraded from version 4.2 to 4.3. During this process of upgrade changes

were made in the database. New tables/columns were added, some of the

existing columns deleted or moved to another table. There were some changes

being queried from the database and manually pasted in the Excel

spreadsheets from where graphical reports were generated. This involved

tremendous manual effort in collecting the data from database and modifying

it to the reporting format.

reports using Microstrategy. This was a challenging project since we were

generating Engineering graphs using business reporting tool.

AMERICAN EXPRESS (AMEX), NY, USA Dec

'03 - May '04

Cognos Developer

Project # 1: IMEX Reporting

Imex is an application that American Express uses to track the status of

Letters of Credit in whose transactions the bank was involved. The

application is a reengineering project of an existing access application.

The project involves the generation of reports in Cognos Impromptu. The

reports would be delivered to the users through the web. A scheduled batch

process would create reports daily. The application would require executing

queries on an Oracle 8.1.7 database server and displaying the results as a

formatted report.

Responsibilities:

. Creating and validating complex queries. Many of the queries in the

system looked up around 15 tables and used many Dynamic tables.

. Query optimization for poorly performing query objects using query

hints and analytical functions supported by Oracle 8.1.7 instead of

sub queries.

. Writing a Macros and Batch, this will run all the 25 reports at once

and generates as a PDF and XLS format. Then all the reports which are

generated are moved to QA and to Production Environment.

. Schedule the batch to run everyday around 5 P.M NY time. Batch should

start once it receives the trigger file from the .Net process

otherwise batch needs to check for the trigger file once in 10 mts.

Once it receives the trigger file then only the batch should start the

entire process.

. Estimation plan for the new requirement from the Client for the

different regions (New York, Frankfurt etc)

Achievement:

. Appreciation and Award from client for the timely delivery of reports,

Immediate bug fixing, New Requirement Implementation and for the

Production Support.

Project # 2: CBMIS (Correspondent Banking Management Information System)

The CBMIS was created to provide a means of measuring the performance of

Relationship Managers and of giving them the tools to understand the

profitability of their customers. The system produces two basic reports:

"Business owner" reports which show the breakup of revenue from an

individual Relationship Manager's customers; and a "Scorecard" reports

which measures performance of business units (RM, Team, Region) against

agreed business goals.

The objective of the project was to design and build a data mart, for data

Extraction, Transformation and Loading using the SQL Server 2000 DTS. Data

was extracted from SQL Server, Access and Flat file data source, cleansed,

Transformed & Loaded in a separate repository using which fast & efficient

reports were generated using Cognos Impromptu. These reports give an

insight into business trends and make them better forecasting decisions as

well as provide business users with a customer centric view of

heterogeneous data.

Responsibilities:

. Validating the Reports, Testing etc.

. IWR Report Publishing.

. Loading a Fresh Data using SQL DTS

. Production Support
