#3-Project Title:               INTTRA SI Harmonization                                          April 2012 – May 2012

Team Size:                            1

Location:                            Kochi INDIA

Databases/Tools:              Oracle 10g, TOAD, SOAP UI, Perforce

Description:

INTTRA the Largest Multi-Carrier E-Commerce Platform for Global Shipping enables shippers, freight forwarders, third-party logistics providers, brokers and importers to electronically plan, process and manage their shipments fast and efficiently, replacing the traditional use of faxes and phone calls.  The goal of the project is to integrate Vortex (channel to place shipping orders) with single supplemental validation service to reduce amount of duplicate business logic processing. Validation service can be implemented as non-invasive addition to the current process in order to reduce the percentage of rejected transactions, thus not reducing the overall volume processed by INTTRA. Channel specific validations have been replaced with centralized validation services. In addition, the Vortex SI channel will now be forced to utilize the same validation routines, contrary to current implementation where only a minimal validation is performed.

As part of the validation service INTTRA can begin accessing carrier systems through Web Service Interface to obtain up to date and/or near real time carrier specific validation information (i.e. list of voyage numbers, supported container numbers, etc...).

 

Responsibilities:

• Single point of contact for client interaction during requirements analysis phase till production rollout.
• Integrated SI Channel with validation service by creating xml file using XML Path, SOAP Lite & Digest MD5 algorithms and also helped the INTTRA Administrators in setting up the environment to accommodate the new changes.
• Created Complex Perl scripts which will create XML file and invoke Web Service to perform Business validation using SOAP module and DBI module.
