Improved database maintenance tool

A database maintenance tool is needed, which is able to

  • remove data (export and delete)
  • add data (import)

The tool shall support project with global configuration enabled as well. If data is removed, the storage size of the database shall shrink. Currently the database size only grows, grows and grows, which cost more and more money for database and storage.

    With data being one of the number one causes for lack of adoption of a number of the MAS applications, we as end users need a tool that is built into MAS that enable us to carry out bulk uploads or changes in a similar way to MXloader but with built in validation for things like domain values, ALN compliance, field lengths etc. so as the end users type into a box they get feedback straightaway. Once the end user populates the MXloader esq sheet it can then be work flowed to system admin for a final check before pressing a button to update details on assets, locations, PMs, jobplans etc whilst adhering to the system rules and capturing an audit of what was changed when and by whom.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each idea suggestion. The IBM Engineering Reporting team has reviewed the idea, and based on our understanding, it is accepted as an uncommitted candidate.
