Re-engineering for the leap to modern technologies
The personnel data of the Diocese of St. Gallen used to be managed in a simple Access application. As part of this project, soxes was commissioned by the Diocese of St. Gallen to create a software solution with which the data of internal, external and freelance employees can be recorded and managed in a user-friendly way.
Digitisation of personnel data
soxes developed a new web-based solution for this purpose, which is based on ASP.NET and Java Script. Thanks to the new application, a simpler, faster and more sustainable use of personnel data within the Diocese of St. Gallen is made possible. Duplications can be eliminated and the technical basis raised to a modern level.
Within the application, different functions (e.g. chaplain) can be assigned to a person and this person can be assigned to one or more organisational units (e.g. parishes). Furthermore, it is possible for the user to create analysis lists and simple reports by using clever filter functions. The application also offers the possibility to export data for an Outlook import or a file readable by Adobe InDesign.
Time saving thanks to re-engineering
The current solution has significantly simplified the work with personnel data for the Diocese of St.Gallen. Because the personnel database is stored centrally, users can access it from different locations. Thanks to the different user rights, the use can be controlled in detail. Based on this new solution, the diocese now produces the printable version of the personnel directory with little additional effort on the part of the graphic designer.
