Report for November 2012
- Report Date
- November 2012
Achievements last period
- Release 1 went live 8th November, this was slightly later than planned as testing was delayed due to the late delivery of the new barcode scanners from the supplier.
- Release 2 went live as planned on 13th November
- The following stores all successfully went live on eStores during November: -
- Chemistry (barcoded)
- Swann (barcoded)
- Ashworth (barcoded)
- QMRI (online)
- Chancellors (online)
- SCRM store is planned to go-live w/c 10th Dec, which leaves only Roslin stores.
Issues
- Chemistry stores experienced some issues with the overnight interface to eFinancials, which were caused by historical data errors in the eFin stock records and resulted in orders being delayed in the interface. These data errors have now been resolved and the orders are being interfaced more promptly.
- Similar data issues were encountered at Chancellors store, where outstanding purchase orders as old as 2009 caused stock levels to be incorrectly reported. These data errors have now been resolved.
- The new barcode scanning devices are intermittently losing their WiFi connectivity. This is a believed to be a manufacturing fault and is being pursued with the supplier. The project team have supplied a workaround to the stores to allow them to still download their orders even if the device won'r connect over the WiFi.
- Roslin stores have yet to agree to a go-live date. This has been escalated to the Project Sponsor as the project is due to close before the Christmas break.
