Training Report

Objective of the project

To capture data at source thereby eliminating the multiple recording and decrease probability of clerical error.

To increase speed of result availability by making the information available to the users online

Interaction with Other Processes: Assets Management will interact with other modules in the following way as shown below:

a) Interaction with Accounts Process: Assets Management will get the receipts of purchase of items for the company and appropriate entries would be made and reports would be generated so that the generated information would be available to administrator or relevant user of system.

b) Interaction with HR Process: Assets Manager will forward the information regarding the reports of issues on the employees, which will help the HR Department to help in the task of making the documents such as NOC, clearance Receipts etc.

To provide Reports, to assist Official processes such as.

Items Stocked At particular date. Total Count of items stocked in particular month. Total Items stocked between two dates. Total No. of items issued to particular employee. Total no. of items issued in particular month. Category wise count of items issued. Total no. of items received from particular employee. Items received on particular date.

16

Training Report

Presently the system is working in partial computerized mode, i.e. all the receipts are made through MS-WORD and MS-Excel manually. All the processes involving in maintaining stock records and documentation are also manual. This is not only time consuming but require lots of manual work to accomplish the single task.

To overcome this, computerized information system is needed to be designed. This application will be capable of interacting with the different departments to fetch the relevant Information.

Once the application is developed and running then, the users can directly create required information and overcome the delay in progress of office activities.

System Analysis

Identification of the stakeholders

Preliminary investigations

17

Training Report

Identification of need

Need Identification was carried out in the following manner:

I. The stakeholders in the computerization of the assets management system

were first identified as follows:

i. Administrator.

ii. Authorized User.

iii. Employee departments (Development, Implementation, Marketing,

Stores)

II. The stakeholders were interviewed to find out their information generation

and usage habits.

III. Documents used for recording (registers) and exchanging information

(forms/reports) were studied.

IV. Need was identified for each Stake holder as follows:

i. Employee departments were interested in the timeliness and fast

activities. They also wish to have simplified approach for receiving

and submitting assets of company.

ii. Authorized User of system was concerned with controlling the

operations of the assets management. He was interested in seeing

the list of received, issued and pending items on employees, an

error free recording of items, which would conform to all the

18

Training Report

output reports being generated. In addition, he wishes to monitor

the management on the periodical basis, like daily, monthly, and

even yearly.

iii. Employees were interested in reducing the paperwork

involved in Obtaining NOC from the organization when leaving

the company. Thus, reduction in paperwork would be

welcome. This will also help in maintaining the unnecessary

files and help in redundant free data storage.

Preliminary Investigations

Preliminary investigations carried out included:

1. Interview of Sr. Manager (Accounts).

2. Interview with the authorized User.

3. Inspection of Reports and registers maintained.

The purpose of the preliminary investigation was:

1. To understand the present system/procedure of operations

2. To find out deviations from the basic system if any

3. Evaluation of alternative solutions

4. To determine the scope of the project

19

Training Report

5. Gather information for the feasibility study

The procedure of purchasing, storing, maintaining inventory,

allotment, receiving and reporting was found to be as follows:

I. Entries of items purchased by company are first recorded in the master

register. Depending on the requirement, available items may be allocated

to the employees immediately or later.

II. Allotment of items: The items allotted to an employee are recorded on

excel sheet with relevant entries and issue no. is given to employee to

whom items are issued.

III. Reporting of results: The authorized user in-charge make appropriate

entries in the register and report to Administrator who inspects the results

for probable errors. Separate reporting documents exist for reporting of

results to the respective departments. The results are transcribed on to

these documents. An issue number is given to each document from the

issue register. The issue number is copied on to the master register before

each item is issued.

Deviations of the main procedure could occur in some case, reasons as

follows:

I. Lost or non-receipt of items: items may be lost in transit from department

to employee. They may also be received later than the due date.

20

Training Report

Alternatives considered for the project included variations in the

extent of computerization possible for example:

I. A standalone system for recording the purchasing, issue, receipt of item.

II. An integrated project including inventory, and assets management

information system.

by other departments.

The Administrator of the assets Manager, for maintaining the top-level records

and other purpose, is using the first computer. Second system is used for taking

reports on the activities performed department wise.

Department wise client computers would be required for implementing the

system.

SQL Server for Windows XP/NT/VISTA/2000 and Microsoft ASP.NET for Application are the software was available for implementing the system.

Operational Feasibility

Assets Manager :

Assets Manager is not interested in recording and rerecording of data. With this

work reduced from their duties, they would be happier. They would thus be

willing to support the project.

22

Introduction of Technologies Used

1. Visual Studio 2005

Visual Studio 2005, codenamed Orcas, was released to MSDN subscribers on 19 November 2005 alongside .NET Framework 2.0. The codename Orcas is, like Whidbey, a reference to an island in Puget Sound, Orcas Island. The source code for the Visual Studio 2005 IDE will be available under a shared source license to some of Microsoft's partners and ISVs Microsoft released Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2005 on 11 August 2006.[58]

Visual Studio 2005 is focused on development of Windows Vista, 2003 Office system, and Web applications. For visual design, a new Windows Presentation Foundation visual designer and a new HTML/CSS editor influenced by Microsoft Expression Web are included. J# is not included. Visual Studio 2005 requires .NET Framework 2.0 and by default configures compiled assemblies to run on .NET Framework 2.0, but it also supports multi-targeting which lets the developers choose which version of the .NET Framework the assembly runs on. Visual Studio 2005 also includes new code analysis tools, including the new Code Metrics tool (only in Team Edition and Team Suite Edition).[59] For Visual C++ Visual Studio adds a new version of Microsoft Foundation Classes(MFC 9.0) that adds support for the visual styles and UI controls introduced with Windows Vista.[ For native and managed code interoperability, Visual C++ introduces the STL/CLR, which is a port of the C++ Standard Template Library (STL) containers and algorithms to managed code. STL/CLR defines STL-like containers, iterators and algorithms that work on C++/CLI managed objects.

Visual Studio 2005 features a XAML based designer (codenamed Cider), workflow designer, LINQ to SQL designer (for defining the type mappings and object encapsulation for SQL Server data), XSLT debugger, JavaScriptIntellisense support, JavaScript Debugging support, support for UAC manifests, a concurrent build system, among others.[63] It ships with an enhanced set of UI widgets, both for WinForms and WPF. It also includes a multithreaded build engine (MSBuild) to compile multiple source files (and build the executable file) in a project across multiple threads simultaneously. It also includes support for compiling PNG compressed icon resources introduced in Windows Vista. An updated XML Schema designer will ship separately some time after the release of Visual Studio 2005.

26

Training Report

The Visual Studio debugger includes features targeting easier debugging of multi-threaded applications. In debugging mode, in the Threads window, which lists all the threads, hovering over a thread will display the stack trace of that thread in tooltips. The threads can directly be named and flagged for easier identification from that window itselfIn addition, in the code window, along with indicating the location of the currently executing instruction in the current thread, the currently executing instructions in other threads are also pointed out. The Visua Studio debugger supports integrated debugging of the .NET Framewor 2.0 BCL. It can dynamically download the BCL source code and debug symbols and allow stepping into the BCL source during debugging. Currently a limited subset of the BCL source is available, with more library support planned for later in the year.

2. ASP.NET:

ASP.NET is the new offering for Web developers from the Microsoft .It is not simply the next-generation of ASP; in fact, it is a completely re-engineered and enhanced technology that offers much, much more than traditional ASP and can increase productivity significantly.

Because it has evolved from ASP, ASP.NET looks very similar to its predecessor—but only at first sight. Some items look very familiar, and they remind us of ASP. But concepts like Web Forms, Web Services, or Server Controls gives ASP.NET the power to build real Web applications.

Advantages of ASP.NET:

Advantages of ASP.NETTo make a clean sweep, with ASP.NET you have the ability to

completely separate layout and business logic. This makes it much easier for teams of programmers and designers to collaborate efficiently. This makes it much easier for teams of programmers and designers to collaborate efficiently.

Support for compiled languagesdeveloper can use VB.NET and access features such as strong

typing and object-oriented programming. Using compiled languages also means that ASP.NET pages do not suffer the performance penalties associated with interpreted code. ASP.NET pages are precompiled to byte-code and Just In Time (JIT) compiled when first requested. Subsequent requests are directed to the fully compiled code, which is cached until the source changes.

27

Training Report

Use services provided by the .NET FrameworkThe .NET Framework provides class libraries that can be used by

your application. Some of the key classes help you with input/output, access to operating system services, data access, or even debugging. We will go into more detail on some of them in this module.

Graphical Development EnvironmentVisual Studio .NET provides a very rich development environment

for Web developers. You can drag and drop controls and set properties the way you do in Visual Basic 6. And you have full IntelliSense support, not only for your code, but also for HTML and XML. State management

To refer to the problems mentioned before, ASP.NET provides solutions for session and application state management. State information can, for example, be kept in memory or stored in a database. It can be shared across Web farms, and state information can be recovered, even if the server fails or the connection breaks down

Update files while the server is running!Components of your application can be updated while the server is

online and clients are connected. The Framework will use the new files as soon as they are copied to the application. Removed or old files that are still in use are kept in memory until the clients have finished.

XML-Based Configuration FilesConfiguration settings in ASP.NET are stored in XML files that

you can easily read and edit. You can also easily copy these to another server, along with the other files that comprise your application.

Architecture of ASP.NET

Architecture is explained form bottom to top in the following discussion.

At the bottom of the Architecture is Common Language Runtime. NET Framework common language runtime resides on top of the operating system services. The common language runtime loads and executes code that targets the runtime. This code is therefore called managed code. The runtime gives you, for example, the ability for cross-language integration.

.NET Framework provides a rich set of class libraries. These include base classes, like networking and input/output classes, a data class library for data access, and classes for use by programming tools, such as debugging services. All of them are brought together by the Services Framework, which sits on top of the common language runtime.

28

Training Report

ADO.NET is Microsoft’s ActiveX Data Object (ADO) model for the .NET Framework. ADO.NET is not simply the migration of the popular ADO model to the managed environment but a completely new paradigm for data access and manipulation.

ADO.NET is intended specifically for developing web applications. This is evident from its two major design principles:

Disconnected Datasets—In ADO.NET, almost all data manipulation is done outside the context of an open database connection. Effortless Data Exchange with XML—Datasets can converse in the universal data format of the Web, namely XML.

The 4th layer of the framework consists of the Windows application model and, in parallel, the Web application model.The Web application model-in the slide presented as ASP.NET-includes Web Forms and Web Services.

ASP.NET comes with built-in Web Forms controls, which are responsible for generating the user interface. They mirror typical HTML widgets like text boxes or buttons. If these controls do not fit your needs, you are free to create your own user controls.

Web Services brings you a model to bind different applications over the Internet. This model is based on existing infrastructure and applications and is therefore standard-based, simple, and adaptable.

Web Services are software solutions delivered via Internet to any device. Today, that means Web browsers on computers, for the most part, but the device-agnostic design of .NET will eliminate this limitation.

One of the obvious themes of .NET is unification and interoperability between various programming languages. In order to achieve this; certain rules must be laid and all the languages must follow these rules. In other words we can not have languages running around creating their own extensions and their own fancy new data types. CLS is the collection of the rules and constraints that every language (that seeks to achieve .NET compatibility) must follow.

The CLR and the .NET Frameworks in general, however, are designed in such a way that code written in one language can not only seamlessly be used by another language. Hence ASP.NET can be programmed in any of the .NET compatible language whether it is VB.NET, C#, Managed C++ or JScript.NET.

3. AJAX

It's almost impossible today to be involved in web application design or development and not be aware of Ajax, a technology that includes but is not limited to Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. That's because Ajax is currently the primary technique for driving the high responsiveness and interactivity of some of the most popular applications on the web such as Google Maps and Flicker. These applications are representative of a new generation of highly responsive, highly interactive web applications, referred to as Web 2.0 applications, that often involve users collaborating online and sharing content.

Ajax has different implications for developers working in different roles. For example, component developers creating custom components for web applications build Ajax functionality into the design. Page authors use these Ajax components, along with widgets, JavaScript technology, and other techniques, to incorporate Ajax functionality into their web applications. Ajax impacts other roles too. For example, enterprise application developers need to add logic in server-side components to handle Ajax-related requests directed to the server.

Underlying all of the approaches for adding Ajax functionality to a web page is JavaScript technology. In this article, you'll see that in some approaches, such as using an Ajax-enabled Java Server Faces component, the component encapsulates the JavaScript code, so you don't have to do any JavaScript coding. In other approaches, such as using a widget in a JavaScript library, the library provides most of the JavaScript code, but you will need to add a little JavaScript code yourself. If you don't find components or widgets that provide the Ajax functionality you need, you must do a lot more JavaScript coding yourself. However, you don't have to rely on any one of these approaches

AJAX Control Tool Kit for ASP.Net Applications

Ajax Control Toolkit is set of server controls created by Microsoft and community to work with ASP.Net AJAX applications. It is available as separate download in asp.net site. This toolkit contains number of ASP.Net AJAX extender controls and an array of web controls that can be used to build rich internet applications. Extenders are server controls that get coupled with an exiting server to provide more client side functionality in AJAX applications. Basically, it is a control which emits some JavaScript code to give extended functionality to an existing control. For example, when we have a delete button we will add a JavaScript code

30

Training Report

to alert the user with confirmation message manually. This can be done by ConfirmButtonExtender control available in the toolkit.

To provide an auto complete feature to a textbox we can use an extender control called AutoCompleteExtender available in the toolkit. Additionally, we can also develop our own extender control by inheriting an abstract class called Extender Control System.Web.UI namespace.

Ex. Use of Calendar Extender

Steps

1.      Drag a textbox control.

2.      Drag a CalenderExtender control.

3.      Set the textbox ID in the TargetControlID property of CalenderExtender control.

<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

<cc1:CalendarExtender ID="CalendarExtender1" runat="server" TargetControlID="TextBox1">

</cc1:CalendarExtender>

Execute the page. On clicking inside the textbox the calendar control will displayed where we can select the date.

4. CSS(Cascading Style Sheets)

31

Training Report

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used to describe the presentation (that is, the look and formatting) of a document written in a markup language Its most common application is to style web pages written in HTML and XHTML, but the language can be applied to any kind of XML document

CSS is designed primarily to enable the separation of document content (written in HTML or a similar markup language) from document presentation, including elements such as the colors, fonts, and layout This separation can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification of presentation characteristics, enable multiple pages to share formatting, and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content (such as by allowing for tableless web design). CSS can also allow the same markup page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser or screen reader) and on Braille-based, tactile devices. While the author of a document typically links that document to a CSS stylesheet, readers can use a different stylesheet, perhaps one on their own computer, to override the one the author has specified.

CSS specifies a priority scheme to determine which style rules apply if more than one rule matches against a particular element. In this so-called cascade, priorities or weights are calculated and assigned to rules, so that the results are predictable.

Context Diagram of assets management system

The Assets Management System has been designed as a client server system to

serve the following purpose as shown by the context diagram below.

i) Assets department should be able to enter the details and view results of

item purchased

ii) Should be able to view the Item list and be able to issue and receive items.

34

Data Flow Diagrams

A data flow diagram is a graphical technique that depicts information flow

and the transforms that are applied as data move from input to output. The

data flow diagram is also known as ‘data flow graph’. Various symbols are

used to depict the data from one level to another level.

The data flow diagram must be used to represent the system or software at

any level of abstraction. In fact, data flow diagram may partition into the

levels that represent increasing information flow for functional modeling as

information on flow modeling. In doing so it satisfies the second operational

analysis principle i.e., creating a functional model.

Training Report

Context Level Diagram

As Shown above the context level diagram of assets, management system shows the major functionalities and the key users, with the central database application.

Store Manager is the most critical user of this system, having the administration rights, he is the sole person to handle and manage the entire application. Apart from managing the application, his responsibility is to maintain the constant follow of information in the application.

Store as a department is significant departments, because the functionality of the store is different and critical. Store functionality is as mentioned below.

Receiving the receipts from accounts department, for the items purchased. Making entries for the items purchased for the company. Issuing the items, after the requisition has been made from the other

department. Once issued, the items then received from employees after their use.

Once received, the status of items is then recorded for evaluation or the damage made to item.

The HR department for giving the NOC to the employees leaving the company uses receipts of issued items.

Therefore the most crucial and important task in this application is handled by the store itself.

The database is maintained so that the data can be sent, received and even updated by the respective users.

Store Users :

Store user can be simple Store user that can enter the items purchased, issued and received from employees.

Store user can also be Administrator that can edit the results.

Assets maintaining system, i.e. the application can be further decomposed in to level 1DFD’s as depicted below

Handling reports

Various reports are generated by the application at the various levels of execution. Depending upon the requirements of the store and the guidelines provided by the ISO 9001:2000 certification, reports were designed accordingly.

For example, the store can generate reports as

Total count of items Stocked in particular month. Category wise Count of items stocked at particular date Total no. of items stocked between two dates. Total no. of items issued to particular employee. Total no. of items issued in particular month. Category wise count of items issued. Total no. of items received from particular employee. Total no. of items received in particular month. Items received on particular date

Handling item information

The other prominent part of the first level DFD is “Handling item information”This process is divided into following non-decomposable sub processes

1. Enter new category type (store Manager task)

When the store manager add another category type, then this process can be use to add new category type. If the category type already exists. Then there cannot be multiple categories of same type. Category Id for the item is generated automatically. This process is further not decomposed in any sub processes.

Training Report

2. Enter new item (store Manager task )

This process can add new item,. When adding the item, the item id is automatically generated. User has to enter the name of the item and the units,. Similarly, the items can be edited, or deleted. This process is further not decomposed in any sub processes.

3. Issue Item (store Manager task )

When store manager wishes to issue any item to employee then he have to make entries for that item in issue master. This process is further not

decomposed in any sub processes.

4. Receive Item (store Manager task )

When store manager wishes to receive any item from employee then he have to make entries for that item in receive master. This process is further

not decomposed in any sub processes.

Database Creation

Creation of the database for the application is the most critical task. Proper care and futuristic approach should be used while the creation of the database. The application is developed to serve the assets management system for a long period so the size and all the constraints for the database should be so created that in near future there are no chances for the modification or even up gradation of the database design.

Database should be designed in such a way that while coding, the design of the database help in various functions and procedure and unnecessary burden is removed.

Linking of the database with the Front End Application

Once the database is created, it should be linked with the Front-End application, for the development of the user interface with the Database.

If the SQL Server 2005 for Windows XP is installed on the system then database can be created on that system.

After the creation of the database on the Server, the connection must be established between the client and the server, so that the client can access the database. This is done by using the ODBC drivers and SQL Server ADO.Net objects on the client side (SQL Server 2005).

The server side SQL database is usually managed by the DBA (Database Administrator).

Structured English

Following is the general approach that was used in the creating the processes stated above and depicted in the Data Flow diagrams.

For convenience in the reading, the processes are configured and numbered according to the process and its constituent processes.

47

Structured English

“Structured English is the marriage of English language with the syntax of structured programming.”

Structured English is a form of narrative English written as a series of blocks that uses capitalization and indentation to represent the hierarchical structure of the

logic specifications.

Structured English has much of the rigidity of a computer program but it is still missing a number of important details such as specifications for reading or

writing physical files, counters or error flags, or any physical design.

Unlike Decision Tables and Decision Trees, which show, only branching logic, Structured English contains complete step-by-step statements.

Development strategy and efficiency

This application is supposed to serve the Store department which needs to be interacted with the Accounts and HR department.

Therefore, the development strategy should be like, that all the departments have some common task, which is grouped together in the store task. Therefore, there would be a single integrated application that is capable to serve all the three departments.

The code development strategy is thus as follows

1. Developments of single form containing add Category task, AddItem task and Item Detail Task embedded in one single Page.

2. User can stock Items, issue and receive Items back.

3. Store department will contain all the forms that they are supposed to use by them, mean they are authorized to view them.

TEST PLAN

Testing

Software testing is any activity aimed at evaluating an attribute or capability of a program or system and determining that it meets its required results. Software testing is basically done:

Confidence Building – Software testing adds to the confidence of development team whether software to be delivered is up to the mark or not.

To improve quality - Quality means the conformance to the specified design requirement.

For Verification & Validation (V&V)

Have we built the software right (i.e., does it match the specification)?

Have we built the right software (i.e., is this what the customer wants)?

For reliability estimation - The probability that the system will satisfactorily perform its intended function under given circumstances, such as environmental conditions, limitations as to operating time.

78

Training Report

Test Plan

The test plan document has to be prepared before the testing phase is started, which clearly lays down the objectives, scope of test, tasks to be performed and the test matrix which depicts the schedule of testing. The test strategy identifies multiple test levels, which are going to be performed for the project. Activities at each level must be planned and it has to be formally documented. Based on the individual plans only, the individual test levels are carried out.

In all test plans, the ETVX {Entry-Task-Validation-Exit} criteria are to be mentioned. Entry means the entry point to that phase. For example, for unit testing, the coding must be complete and then only one can start unit testing. Task is the activity that is performed. Validation is the way in which the progress and correctness and compliance are verified for that phase. Exit tells the completion criteria of that phase, after the validation is done. For example, the exit criterion for unit testing is all unit test cases must pass. In our project, we have performed Unit Testing, Integration Testing and Device testing.

Requirement Review

The requirement will be reviewed by both team and our Mentor. The issues and concerns will be raised and the final requirement document will be created.

Design Verification

The design document needs to be developed by our team based on the Software Requirements Specification document. The Design document needs to be shared and discussed with the Quality Assurance (QA). The involvement of Project Manager, Developer and Quality Assurance is important and critical in this process.

79

Training Report

Unit Testing

Unit testing validates that individual units of source code are working properly. A unit is the smallest testable part of an application. In object-oriented programming, the smallest unit is a method, which may belong to a base/super class, abstract class or derived/child class. This phase deals with white box testing of each discrete unit and function involved in the system. It verifies that all functions of the system are correctly implemented and the code is properly written. Developers (we) are responsible to test their respective modules. Unit test cases will be created and executed by us.

Integration Testing

Integration testing is the phase of software testing in which individual software modules are combined and tested as a group. It follows unit testing and precedes system testing.

Integration testing takes as its input modules that have been unit tested, groups them in larger aggregates, applies tests defined in an integration test plan to those aggregates, and delivers as its output the integrated system ready for system testing. It is basically done:

To test the software for dependencies within modules

To test the interfaces within modules

Conformance to the functional specifications

Consistent implementation of standards

Testing Strategy

This section describes the testing method/strategies specific to high-level functionalities. As we have used client server architecture to access the Database. So we have to check whether network is working or not. Once the connection is established, we have to create the ODBC Connection, to be connected with the Database.

80

Training Report

Tools/Software required:

Following tools will be required for testing

Two systems are required, one acting as client and another as server. Database should be installed on the server and the client is connected with the server. Client should be installed with the necessary software, and the application is installed on the client.

Exit Criteria

The status of the test cases is updated in the Word file.

The bugs are logged in, if found fixed than should be marked verified. In addition, old bugs are re-verified and closed.

The system is tested successfully along with the added features.

Test ExecutionAll the test cases covering the released functionality will be executed.

Staffing and TrainingSupervisor: Mr. Arvind Dungerwal

Trainees: Executives’ and department heads, from concerned departments

Defect Management

Test cases shall be written and reviewed in the word sheets covering all the required functionality to be tested.

Test Cases

Project Name Assets ManagementOperating System Windows XP SP2Test Type ManualDate Last Modified 25/6/2008

Parallel Run

Testing was wound with actual data. The data was entered and reports were taken. It was found that the reports matched with the manual reports.

Implementation strategy was as follows:

I. To implement the database on one machine existing at store

II. To implement the software on two machines including:

a. The database server – doubled up as a client b. Client machine with Manager Store

III. Store staff was allowed to enter the data using the first client.

IV. Software for client server networking which was required to be loaded and configured included SQL Server 2005 Database, Listener at the server end.

V. Parallel run of the system with the manual system was done until the operators became comfortable with the operations and the reports could be printed for month’s data.

VI. Daily backups of the complete system were instituted for safety. SQL Server 2005 provides database administration features for taking backups.

82

Training Report

Future Scope and Further enhancement of the project

The development of the application was design keeping three things in mind

Modifiability

This application is modifiable, in terms of form designing, report layout and database designing.

Expandability

More forms and reports can be added to the present application to full the future needs. This is possible design to the fact that the application is designed to meet the future needs, in terms of expandability

Presently the application supports, expandability in terms of category, item types

Adaptability

Application design is based on Microsoft technology because mostly the organization is using the application based on Microsoft technology, so the application is adaptable with any version of Microsoft product

A server specifically designed to serve all the major application working in the NexGEN Consultancy.

Backup will also be taken from one single server and hence the efforts will be less. These make application able to run smoothly for coming 5-10 years. If needed, then application is scalable in respect with all the factors, and easy to maintain.
