Sure has been a while since my last post… So what have I been doing?
I’ve been doing a lot of consulting work for a Dutch company calles Qurius.
The end customer was BIS Industrial Services. They do insulation, scaffolding and a host of other services.
What I did for them was create a portal for their remote employees for registering time spent on projects. They register time for about 3000 employees. This is done by about 35 administrative employees.
The technology used was ASP.NET 2.0 on IIS6. The backend was Microsoft Dynamics Nav.
Where am I going?
I’m doing a small µISV project which has allready been sold for a company in Roeselare. They want a small program that allows them to register communication between the company and external contacts. They have been doing this for years an see real added value in this business process.
Until now, they have been registering their communications in an excell spreadsheet. This of course has some drawbacks in a multiuser environment. Another major drawback is that their contact details are in their Microsoft Dynamics Nav System.
Yes, that Nav again. I did design the app to allow for a pluggable dataaccess though, so it can easily be coupled to other software. The app is in C# ASP.NET and I’m probably not going to use the ajax control toolkit but rather Gaia Ajax Widgets.
I will probably post about my experiences with those in the next few days.
