• Participated in the architecture and development of the client's implementation of a new web-based online enrollment application for the Group Benefits Division.
• Built a number of critical components including a census import/export facility and a pre-enrollment package generation utility.
• The import facility allowed internal users in the enrollment unit to access an excel spread sheet in the same physical storage location in Network Attached Storage NAS regardless of what operating system the online environment app was running under.
• The census data on the spread sheet could be in any order and could have any column headings.
• For each column on the spread sheet the user was given an opportunity to select from a drop down the target database column to map to.
• Java Transaction API JTA was used to enforce logical unit of work at the participant level bean managed as opposed to container-managed persistence so that in the case of an error all updates to various tables related to the participant could be rolled-back.
• Asynchronized the process by developing message driven beans and configuring the WebLogic application server.
• JexcelAPI and JXL were used to parse and manipulate the contents of excel cells thru POI/HSSF methods.
• The successful import also included an encrypted password for the participant to be written to the database and an unencrypted password along with a generated id to be written to LDAP to allow subsequent individual online environment. The export facility was essentially the reverse process which allowed the user to export census data into a spread sheet under NAS regardless of operating system.
• The same Java/Excel interfaces were used and Blaze Advisor was called to provide some of the final census statistics.
• The pre-enrollment package generation utility incorporated Java, XML, XSL-FO and JMS technologies.
• This utility allowed an internal user to initiate an asynchronous process, made possible by JMS, whereby data was extracted into a set of XML documents and formatted based on XSL-FO style sheets, to be rendered in RTF, PDF, Microsoft Word and other formats.

PowerBuilder/Oracle Developer consultant

• Environmental Claims data was inherently complex because of the large number of entities which made up the data structure and the degree of interdependency among these entities, not to mention the sheer amount of data.
• The customer was faced with a situation where the current database consisting of 300 or so tables had reached a point where it could no longer satisfy the business needs. A new database was put together doubling the number of tables.
• A full scale, one time conversion, however, was out of the question as the data required a fair amount of cleanup and the customer was not in a position to wait for all of that to finish.
• Developed PowerBuilder objects and PL/SQL based stored procedures to provide the customer with a mechanism to selectively convert data after each phase of the cleanup.
• The wizard took the selected accounts, looked for policies, claims, losses, legal info, and everything else associated with these accounts, drilled down to the last data element, made decisions as to whether it needed to be converted/translated/dropped and then proceeded to populate the new database with the converted values IN THE PROPER SEQUENCE.
• Once developed, this procedure was run time and time again and no referential integrity issues were ever reported with data in the current conversion or previous converted.
