This project started as a side quest for company where I have been working as an administrative worker and clearance agent to:

  • speed up repetitive tasks and agendas when acquiring data for submitting Intrastat reports (EU statistics for goods and services movement, mandatory for companies with certain amount of turnover)
  • centralise knowledge base, make it easy and fast to access, accessible and safe
    • old knowledge base in this company consisted of handwritten papers, various excel spreadsheets updated at stored randomly on multiple computers
    • after implementing VPN connection to the company network, the knowledge base can be accessed remotely, what comes handy in upcoming COVID-19 times
    • nightly cron job for database dump and upload to external FTP server
  • have a workflow for acquiring missing data and keeping an eye on subjects that have obligation to submit these reports
  • make it simpler to hire non-qualified person to process invoices / delivery notes and report types and quantities of goods due usage of fulltext search in knowledge base - lot of companies that are ordering and selling the exact same types of goods every month
