Qwest Sales Compensation: On this 11i implementation project, Qwest has start using CRM product ( CN ) for their

sales compensation . Initial project phase I was responsible for Qwest custom development for this project. Development

involve writing multiple interfaces

• Interface between company’s hierarchy manager to Oracle CRM product(JTF, HR)

• Collecting customer’s transaction from 17 billing systems. These collections include database to database load,

flat file of delimiter or fixed width file to database load. I was a designer for this C++ generic loader framework.

With a help of 2 team members this product was deliver with testing in 2 months from scratch.

• Responsible for writing complex Pre-processor, assigns transaction from customer to sales reps and handle all

RETRO’s . Module has concurrent processing mechanism which process nearly 20 million transactions in

recoded 2.35 hrs, by using 10 processor S class HP UNIX server.

• Responsible for process performance tuning include

SQL tuning

Job Forking

Developing a generic concurrent batch processing mechanism

• Architecture of Quota Engine design, which predicts sales reps quota -- Quota Engine has a capability of dynamic

formula configuration.

• Working with Core CRM product Oracle development team on various TAR’s

• FIN project – Design project interface which is Sorbonne Auxiliary compliance. Project loads more than

$520,000,000 dollar revenue collection for BMG sales compensation system.

Commission Calculation: This is a batch engine of commission calculation, written in C++, which calculates the

65,000 agent’s commission depending upon their sales plans.

Responsibilities

• I worked on the batch process of loading data from various database, flat files to our project database and then

commission calculation process.

• Apart from ongoing maintenance responsibility, I implemented the 2001 sales plan in this system. By using a

design patterns code become more generic and standard. Use of Rational Rose to create new project classes,

interaction diagrams, helps me too in documentation.

• I improved the performance of the batch engine nearly 35 % by avoiding the parsing & reparsing of the same

query. This is achieved by converting normal queries into bind one. ( previously engine is taking 13-14 hrs, now it

takes 7:30 – 8:00 hrs )

• To resolve the production problems, correction of production database, I had written number of cursors,

procedures, triggers.

• To accommodate the new 2001 sales plan design, I suggested & design the new database tables. As SQL’s are

the hearts of the project. I improve the performance of the database by avoiding a table latching.

Title – Consultant

Covasoft Product- This is a real time business Management system.

• I was responsible for the writing a module (as a statically link library) for the smoothening the communication

between client & server in TCP/IP socket communication. I started this work from scratch & written nearly 15

classes in C++ to achieve this aim. By creating abstract classes it become true modular. Advantage of this

modular design is, it gives good traits to write client modules. By using abstract classes, virtual functions achieve

advantage of run time polymorphism.
