7. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 7 Flaws & Redefining Flaws of New Call Need to do some refining which is important from the perspective of simple & user friendly application…we don’t want the user to devote to much time on this application which is a general complaint of the user as they need to go through many tunnels so they are under huge pressure to find time to fill these details. we need to also look into the speedy & easy working of our user for that we have to do some basic fine tuning & also reexamine whether we need some fields which are not much of use or which doesn’t do much of value addition to our scope of work. Amendments required  Need to make certain fields mandatory  Practically customer status provided by engineer doesn’t make any sense therefore we need to club it with Reason for customer not being happy as the moment user select the feedback from the reason combo box it will automatically shows the customer expression.  Asset & Sub Asset needs to be refined as we don’t require the sub asset details here we should rather concentrate on Assets only  Remarks should come in MODE section also it should be made mandatory then only it makes sense when one relates it with reason for customer …

8. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 8 Pending Calls Structure of Pending Calls  All the calls whose call status is pending, Pending is the default call status.  Origin of calls in pending view would be one from the following 1.SE calls – the engineer opens the new call & updates the status as pending 2.NC calls – the calls were triggered from Net console & the calls were assigned by the helpdesk, manager to the particular engineer. NC calls are originating from Net console.  There are 4 types of calls: 3 from NC- Projects (Site Survey, Installation & Activation) & 1 from NC Maintenance  SE calls are the calls are to be entered from the SE application. Amendments required  Along with Page Number Filter( ) should be there in order to make it more user friendly  In Main Screen need to accommodate as many records as possible, so that dependency on the page filter will be less.  Needs to Map the Contact details with Customer Name & Consignee Details.

9.

Link not working Closed Calls  The calls that are updated as closed & resolved or closed & under observation.  When the engineer updates the call status as closed either in new call view or pending call view the calls will flow to the closed view.  In the new call view the call can be updated as closed & resolved.  In the pending call view, if the engineer has taken another visit / phone / email to close a call in pending stage & makes a new instance for a call updating it as closed & resolved.

Amendments required  As of now using this link only for Manager approval, however it would be better if we can club it with Pending RAO approval( Expense). anyway the objective for using this link is to know the status of ones expense approved or not, then its better they know it one page about their individual & team expense cleared by RAO & Manager in command in one go.

11. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 11 Calls View  Engineer can view all the calls applicable to them by applying the various filters  Customer, consignee, address can also be used to search the call  The following filters can also be used like Engineer name, Call No, Call Status, Assigned, Approval, own call / team call, Call type. Amendments required  Since we already have closed calls detail section we can club both calls & closed link together Approved Expense  View giving the team/own expense & call details that have been approved by the reporting manager.

13. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 13 Delete Call  A provision of deleting calls has been provided to the HO user type. The particular call can be searched with the call number. Amendments required  It should be integrated in the Call Management Section for a better coordination & accessibility.  Needs to give more options to search for deleting a particular call,as there is a risk of deleting wrong Customer ID if a user type it wrongly, therefore we have to provide them filter option like Technology Location, name of customer etc.

14. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 14 View  Customer Consignee  Customer Consignee Details  Other Details Customer Consignee & Customer consignee Details  Customer Consignee view not giving enough details, more than that it doesn’t make sense to have separate Customer Consignee Details therefore we should club both link together Other Detail  Not using properly need refine it to make it more useful.

15. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 15 Reports  Gotcha  Call Analysis Report  Productivity Report  Conveyance Report  User Details Gotcha Needs redesigning & also its data flow needs to understand Call Analysis Report Technology & Activity based Search would be giving segregated Report Productivity Report Needs to club it with Productivity Bar Graph from CSO Review Graph Conveyance Report Should be linked with finance team report User Details We needs to restrict it usage to Ho & to its administrator therefore we need to kept this in Master Data In all kinds of reporting we should provide Bar & Figure based detailing in a single screen

16.

17. HCL CONFIDENTIAL 17 Summary Smart Engineer is a useful tool for identifying and monitoring the performance of engineers & managers on a daily basis provided if its used properly & effectively. all the recommendation given here are purely based on structural & functional aspects therefore there is still a scope of improvement which will be refined along with its daily usage. We need to understand that this application should be more user friendly & more speedy to work. therefore we have to remove certain fields and functions from the application which are either not in use or have minimum use can be merged with similar sub section.this will not only reduce pressure on database but make server traffic life bit easy.
