A second ‘cleanup’ project called phase II, which is the subject of this project, is required in order to continue this restructuring according to specific requirements and in order to correct also a few shortcomings of phase I with regards to configuration and case data. The goal is to achieve a fully coherent Argus database and application with none of the functionalities (such as expedited reports scheduling and generation of follow-up reports) being hindered by any side-effects of the restructuring of the configuration data
