Coverage Update Rectifier Tool


The sectional analysis of 'Tea Analyst' has come a long way to improve the sectional analysis. Last week Raj (Aideobari T.E.) showed me some reports from his garden database which were not tallying as the total of the same head in the mandays report was different from the sectional report. So I got down to it and realized that first of all the coverage update was not mandatory as a result the user could skip the step and lo we have a wrong sectional report. Moreover it could be that the coverage was updated and later changes were made to the wage entry and the coverage was not updated again so the wages in the coverage table did not get updated. Plus not the least, as this is not what many of you are doing, importing data. If we import data then also we must immediately update the coverage. Now first I want to rectify the current data if it needs correction and then will look into a permanent solution to this problem shortly.
I have added a 'Coverage Update Check' form in the Help memu. Enter the date and the no. of days from that date for which you want to check if the coverage entry is correct. Click on the 'Check' button. The tool will correct totals on its own and will show you a list of date's for whcih you have to update the coverage. This can be done from here only by clicking on the 'Coverage' button.

First day morning

I am really excited to start posting my developments on 'Tea Analyst'. As I keep getting feed back I improve the software and I hope this medium helps in reaching out to you all on what I have done. I am new to blogging but it shouldn't be difficult to write about what I enjoy doing the most. 'Tea Analyst' has come a long way since July 2000 when I bought my first Wipro PC and wondered what I could do with it. The app has come a long way and as I look back as to what it was when I started it sure has changed and become a handy tool now.
