9. Previous Methods and Issues - JAVA Text Editors – Notepad, MultiEdit, etc. Internet searches to find examples or pre- written code. In-house development for features and functionality. Employee self-service triggered the need and we continued with what we started with.

10. Previous Methods and Issues – Reports Oracle Reports Hours long processing to generate 30,000+ PDF reports – each with its own concurrent process. Permanent storage of large CLOBs in a database table. Concurrent manger conflicts that left a small percentage of reports incorrect for the employee. No way to regenerate a missing report.
