Hi Sanjeet, this case is still missing critical elements of a design document that prevents us from accurately quoting on this work. Please refer to helpdesk guidelines on New Development and Customisation work.

In an attempt to get this over the line, I have provided an estimate that should cover the work as closely as possible. Please note that this request seems like it is based on a version prior to V11.4, however, we can only build this on V11.4 +

  3. Remove any attachments that are not referenced in the case

Next Steps:

  2. Complete the case header with additional changes based on the format we agreed on
  3. Discuss internally or with TLTB so we can be sure these changes are final
  4. Give Development Go-Ahead to complete this work 

Timeline:

  1. Vineet to complete case header with the three reports required - 6th May 2020
  2. Development Start -  11th May 2020
  3. UAT Start - 18th May 2020

Hi Vineet,

During our discussion, you agreed to clean up the case header and remove all the unnecessary parts including attachments to avoid any confusion. 

You were also to number the case details so each section can be referenced.Can you do this before we meet to review?

Please keep the case assigned to you as Development does not monitor your helpdesk cases

1. Remove attachments that are not referenced in the document
2. Put a label on your screenshots
3. Tidy the case header, the numbering is not properly aligned

Hi Vineet, the requirements are still very ambiguous. We will need to go through this together.

Here are some questions on the requirements - seems like there needs to be more work done on the requirements
1. Scope 1 - Clarification required
2. Scope 2 - ok
3. Scope 3a and 3b - OK
4. Scope 3c - We need a Submit button for the Employee and Manager to Submit their scores. Once submitted, changes cannot be done.
Where do we define the rule that says "Manager score required Employee Score to be entered" Appraisal Template ??
5. Scope 3d Where do we define the rule that says "7 days..." Appraisal Template ??

*** Email from Sanjay to Epeli ***
Sanjay Singh 13:06 (0 minutes ago)
to Vineet, Sanjeet, Epeli

Bula Epeli,

Thank you for reaching out.

I have spoken to Vineet and discussed options as follows:
  1. Get TLTB to V11.5 asap so that when PMS is completed, we only have to focus on the PMS changes. V11 should be in production at least 2 weeks before we apply the PMS changes.
  2. The requirements still have missing functional explanation - Vineet is on leave today and we will try and get this done early next week
  3. The expected timeline is 2 to 3 weeks from completing the requirements. Vineet is expected to have this done early next week.
  4. Vineet will send a status report that shows the work progress, timelines and expectations so that your team is aware of the progress
by cc: to Vineet - Implement action items as discussed.

Bula Sanjay

Please note comments in red below:

1. Scope 1 - Clarification required. Let us know your queries and a time you are available so we can discuss this together.
2. Scope 2 - ok
3. Scope 3a and 3b - OK
4. Scope 3c - We need a Submit button for the Employee and Manager to Submit their scores. Once submitted, changes cannot be done. This is ok.
Where do we define the rule that says "Manager score required Employee Score to be entered" Appraisal Template ?? This is a general rule for TLTB. All KPI's must be scored by the 2 parties (Employee/Manager) except where score is being determined by an SCR coming from Landsoft Application. Employee must score within 7 days before supervisors can start scoring the KPI measures.
5. Scope 3d Where do we define the rule that says "7 days..." Appraisal Template ?? Please let us know other options you have for discussion from design perspective. As per TLTB, this is again a general rule that employee will get 7 days from appraisal date to submit their rating for KPI measures.

Let us know of your availability so we can iron out any other queries you may have in relation to this case.

Regards
Vineet Ram

*** Skype Discussion ***

Sanjay:
Bula Epeli, I have created this group so we can track and discuss PMS requirements, Questions and Timeline.

Acronyms:
LBS - Link Business Solutions - Fiji
Link - Link Technologies - Australia

Please note that this is not a substitute for the Weekly Status report that LBS sends you clearly laying out the project status - we will use this just to get fast access to resources given the short timeline.

By cc: to Sanjeet - As discussed, please keep Epeli in the loop. At a high level, here is where we are:

1. Link is in the final design stages. We expect to have the design finalised at 2 pm today
2. LBS will upgrade TLTB to V11.5 asap so that when we deliver PMS changes, the focus will be PMS only. we should have V11.5 in production at least 1 week before PMS changes are in so there is minimal interference with the new functionality ad PMS
3. We expect to start Development ASAP with the first cut by the end of next week (subject to go-ahead by today 2 pm)

Sanjeet:
We will update the timeline after all design is approved in the meeting this afternoon

Sanjay:

Hi Sanjeet, the planning of LinkSOFT 11.5 upgrade should happen asap and should not be dependant on development timeline.

We need this done ASAP so that TLTB can familiarise with the Web Platform and there is minimal change when PMS is delivered
