Project Managing API Transfer
Chain & Rope Suppliers & Hoistech hadn't a system which would link their manufacturing log database to their CoreRFID database (database used by engineers to inspect products). This would mean that engineers would manually have to add new product items (which we had already supplied the customer) when we were doing an inspection. The first solution was to have a FTP (File To Protocol). Our Content Management System would have an export button. This file would include all newly added products which had not yet been transferred over. Once the file had been exported, the receptionist would have to go onto CoreRFID and import the file. This again was too long of a process. To help quicken this process we decided to run an API (Application Programme interface). The API would always run in the background of the manufacturing log. Once the product had been added to the manufacturing log it would be entered into a queue to be transferred over to CoreRFID. All information regarding the product would then be placed under the account of the relevant customer on CoreRFID and be added to their NEW location. All products that haven't been added for any reason would be highlighted under Issues. From here you can manually fix any errors and any future errors that the product/customer was having. If a warehouse worker were to make an error upon up[loading a new product we added a delay or 2 hours to any product transferring across. For any product deleted or updated on the manufacturing log so too would the information be rectified across to CoreRFID.
