...Module 3: Recording, analysing and using HR information 3RAI Kathrina Yarwood Activity 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2 The storing of data also known as data management is important for any business or organisation. There are several reasons why an organisation would need to store HR data. Any data collected would be invaluable for various reasons including but not limited to compliance, reporting, business planning and budget setting. An organisation or business can collect any number of different types of data including absenteeism information, equality and diversity questionnaires, in respect to compliance and reporting data collected would include absences, retention information and skill set information. Budget setting information would include workforce numbers, revenues and potential business opportunities. One main HR priority is to track and store existing employee data. For an organisation to move forward, to be able to report on staff accurately and if needed to validate the value of teams or certain job roles, Human resources must have a good understanding of the data and also have a suitable system to secure the data. Management at the highest level require data collected by HR departments as the data would be essential to their planning the future direction of the organisation and make them aware of any number of significant issues such as employee retention and enable them to pursue a solution. HMRC can request copies of records collected by HR to ensure that employees...

...vendors and users of subscriber data management solutions to easily integrate their applications with MySQL Carrier Grade Edition using their preferred database-independent Subscriber API, e.g., LDAP, SQL, C++, Java, HTTP, etc. * High Performance with a Shared-Nothing, Distributed Database that provides realtime access to in-memory subscriber data with just a few milliseconds latency for reads and writes, and can be scaled out by adding additional resources or by storing data on disk. * 99.999% Availability achieved by synchronously replicating in-memory data across active nodes in the cluster with recovery data being asynchronously written to disk, and by optionally “geo”-replicating data off-site to a remote active or standby cluster. * Self-Healing of data nodes with sub-second fail-over times, and an optimized node recovery protocol that automatically re-synchronizes data across re-starting data nodes. Geo-replication enables self-healing across dispersed sites, where the system can continue functioning correctly in the event of site failure. * Distribution-Awareness in a Shared-Nothing Database is enabled in MySQL Cluster with the partitioning of tables by subscriber identifiers, and by using those identifiers when accessing subscriber data to ensure that reads/writes are localized to the data node(s) containing the subscriber data. * Relational Database technology supports mature tools for analyzing and mining customer data via an SQL interface.

Firm as a system: • The management is organized and communicates well. • The management provides one week classes to sales reps on new fertilizers, waste water recovery, computer assisted farm management techniques. The classes are not designed to make them experts in the subject, rather make them competent to discuss the topics to their customers • Current systems are fine, but a system upgrade might be necessary • John Kubanna - “If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it”.

...Week 2 Checkpoint/Organizational Data and Information Daniel Barr XBIS/219 July 6, 2012 Shawn Rieder Week 2 Checkpoint/Organizational Data and Information Based on the information located on the BIRT Sample Database website, the software allows the user the ability to track many aspects of the defined business. It includes eight different tables. Offices, employees, customers, orders, order details, payments, products, and product lines. By using this software program the user can generate reports based on the data entered. The website also includes an ER-diagram which shows the different departments or types of data and how they are tied to other departments. The software allows for data to be entered by multiple sources, such as different stores and incorporates that data and combines that information to give the company a better picture of the entire company. Of course, information generated by data entry is only as good as the data entered. It is critical that companies train employees to correctly enter data into the system. Incorrect data entered into the system will generate reports that will not be accurate. There are several options available for companies. One option would be to purchase software for data management. Another option which is steadily growing is hiring a firm to store your data as well as manage the data as well.

...Mayhew used to run it themselves from the forest sites. But since the company has grown to reach £11 million in annual turnover, and today it employs 500 staff. According to operations director Jan Beattie, this means management by intuition is no longer appropriate. “Previously, we would be on site, interacting with customers and staff on a regular basis,” she says. “If we had a gut feeling about something, it was based on experience, and those gut feelings were generally right.” “Now the directors are removed from the sites, we have to support our gut feelings with evidence and data,” she says. “We need information, and not just information from one site, but from all 27.” Meanwhile, the way in which employees input data into Go Ape’s management systems has also come under strain. To allow employees to file health and safety reports and customer feedback forms, Go Ape had to install PCs in cabins at each location, but this was far from ideal. Making sure the ramps, pulleys and planks were in a safe condition, for example, required one employee with a walkie-talkie to perform the checks and another to input the data into the PC – an unnecessary burden on employees’ time. 2. Collect, analyse and report information These issues prompted Go Ape to redesign its data input and analysis infrastructure over the course of the last few years. It began in 2009, when the company started to look for a Workplace Information System that would allow directors...

Do the advantages outweigh the difficulty of setting it up? * Impress your boss by creating a database in Microsoft Access that will match trainers with courses and meet the following requirements: * Two (2) tables, one (1) containing trainer information and the other containing course information. Create data for five (5) instructors and five (5) courses. The trainer data should include: employee ID number, last name, first name, department, and email address. The course data should include: course number, course name, trainer employee ID number, and training location. * A relationship should exist between the tables. * Use referential integrity to make sure that each course has a valid trainer assigned to it. Week 7 Assignment 4 * Discuss the requirements needed to build a database for the scheduling process. The first step in creating a database is creating a plan that serves both as a guide to be used when implementing the database and as a functional specification after it has been implemented.

...Objective assessment whether Data Warehouse is successful or not 1. Executive Sponsor 2. Tool 3. Data quality / Business rule 4. Performance 5. Support / Training 6. ROI 1. Executive Sponsor At the heart of the data warehouse is the executive sponsor. This is the person who believes in the value of the warehouse and is willing to use his/her political clout to fund the project. The executive sponsor is the one individual that must clearly understand the ROI of the project and be able to articulate to his/her peers. The important note is that the executive should be an active member of the data warehouse project from concept through implementation. It is very difficult to progress through the politics of the project if the sponsor’s only involvement is to supply funding and receive monthly status reports. 2. Tool The first decisions to be made are the categories of tools (extract, transform and load, data cleansing, OLAP, ROLAP, data modeling, administration, etc.). Many of these tools are expensive, not just for their initial costs and maintenance costs, but in training, consulting and in terms of the internal people required to implement and support the tool. The tools must match the requirements of the organization, the users and the project. The tools must work together without the need to build interfaces or write special code. 3. Business rule According to Ronald G. Ross, business rule are literally what you use to run your business. Business rules...
