EDI data import of customer sales as bonus calculation basis
Project duration: 2 months
Brief description
To support sales, sales key figures that are delivered as EDI files from different customers (retail) are loaded into a data warehouse system and prepared. The data is made available to sales employees on the intranet as a bonus basis. PTA is responsible for the coordination and implementation of the ETL process (ETL = Extract, Transform and Load).
Supplement
The system is based on an SSIS package (SQL Server Integration Services), which loads different data and structures into an MS SQL database. The package is also hosted in the database and executed daily via a job. The system records several thousand data per day and is additionally enriched with internal data from the ERP system. A history of the data is guaranteed up to 5 years into the past. PTA designs and develops the ETL process for transaction-safe processing of import data.
