Used FNDLOAD as well as API’s for doing this. Specified the layout of the api’s for loading the attributes of the system extract. The api’s used were to load the Data Elements, Records and File layouts. The api’s were also called to load the extract criteria and extract definitions. Wrote PL/SQL packages that utilized these api’s to load the extract definitions into the database. These packages called the api’s with the appropriate parameters for loading the extracts into the database.

Both positive and negative deductions of the employees were sent to the Vendors for them to administer the benefits. Written packages that will capture change events through triggers on database tables. These change events were custom and needed to capture changes in the columns of the tables.

Developed the BEE Zone application that can be used for uploading the element entries that is available as a flat file. Developed the form for setting up the interface. The setup can be done for the header, trailer and detail record for the interface flat file. Also developed the concurrent program that uses the set up of the interface flat file and loads the data into the Batch Element Entry module. Various element entries for various employees could be loaded into the BEE for ultimately entering into the element entries table. These information could be loaded into the BEE from a flat file with a pre-designed format. Designed the interface database staging tables in which the flat file information is loaded. Developed the concurrent program which calls a PL/SQL package. This package has the code that will load the flat file data into the batch headers and batch lines of the BEE. The package has the code that will verify the header and trailer information and then load the data into the tables.

Developed the Projects to Payroll interface that is used for transferring the time entered in the projects application and transfers that to the BEE. This interface transfers the captured time to the BEE through a registered concurrent process. Different types of tasks like Vacation Pay, Jury Duty, Pager Pay etc can be handled by the interface. Different kinds of time of the employees of the business group could be loaded through projects and these entries were extracted into BEE for loading the absence and the time entries into the absence form and the element entries forms and tables respectively. Designed the database staging tables in which the projects information is loaded. Developed the concurrent request that calls a PL/SQL package. The package then extracts the time captured in the Projects tables and then inserts into the BEE tables. These batches when loaded will create the element entries and the absence entries.

The vacation time for all the employees themselves or the employees under a manager could be got from the web report. The vacation accrual and the carry over from the previous year can also be got from the report. Developed the PL/SQL package that will display the web template from which the user runs the report.
