A sophisticated document repository
CosmetoLab wanted to integrate a document storage system into their existing ERP system. Efficient operation and central storage of documents were important requirements for the application.
Efficient digitisation
soxes developed a Windows service for this purpose, which is installed for each user. When saving documents in a specific folder, the service displays a dialogue in which the user can specify a selection of raw materials and customer information. Based on the specifications, the documents are finally made available to the ERP system in a defined (file) structure.
The documents are then renamed according to the specification and stored accordingly. The application obtains the information for the dialogue and the storage path to be determined from an Excel file created by CosmetoLab. An extension enables the user to find already filed documents again and to create new collective folders.
Technologies used
For the application, the database MySQL was used to persistently save the file structure. The programming language C# was used to develop the application.
