Developer

Responsibilities:

• The Physical File Tracking is a file tracking Tool. This tool will be used by the GE employees. There will be hundreds of official files which belong to different businesses and all these files are kept inside an official storage place. Only those employees having the status of Record Manager have access to these files. Other employee who wants to access the files have to raise a request and the RM has to approve the request. There will be a limit to the number of files that can be stored in such places and once that limit is reached, the older files will be moved to another storage location called Iron Mountain. Since this transaction of files involves lot of complication, it is not possible to make a written document for handling the same. For making this process more simple and easier, PFT tool was developed.
