APPLICATION
Mitsi designed and programmed a computer system for a
FAA-certified machine shop that builds and repairs aircraft parts. The system
tracks parts from initial quotation, creates work orders, prints travelers,
reports on work in-house, tracks labor hours expended on jobs, and writes
invoices. Electronic data Interchange (EDI) was needed for supplier and customer
invoicing and purchase order transfers.
SOLUTION
The system was designed around a multi-user, multi-tasking
computer system. The application was written in Informix and C languages, and it
was seamlessly integrated into the Uniplex Integrated Office Automation system.
Accounting information was provided to eliminate paperwork normally required to
track orders, customers, and receivables.
All reports and procedures had to meet FAA standards. EDI
software was created in C to interface to several standard EDI formats.
