Experience

Affinity Partners Commission Engine

A .NET app that calculates commissions at each payment level, groups them at the partner level, and saves data in the Dynamics CRM, and these saved commissions are sent for internal review, later for consideration by the partner, and paid out where I have worked on it from scratch, designing the back end, developing the front end, and integrating it with Dynamics.

Document Management

A .NET Core and Angular-based web application that is integrated with SharePoint Online, SharePoint On-Premise, and Amazon S3. It provides a unified interface for our users to upload, view, and download documents. It also allows our system admins to choose which type of documents to store in which system through simple configurations.

Dynamics CRM Scheduled Workflows

A variety of Dynamics CRM Workflows running on schedule to notify members about their membership expiration, automatic renewal dates, and monthly charges.

The project involved developing execution rounds to charge for installments and automatic renewals as well as confirmation emails on the success or failure of transactions. I created and assigned tasks to welcome members.

Data Manipulation for Belongil Times

Merged two large databases, one containing seven million records and the other containing 14 million. I merged those databases into a single database and performed reconciliation based on the matching address column.

Separate Reporting Database

Improved the reports development process by introducing a separate reporting database, wrote syncing jobs that sync data from Dynamics CRM organization database to this separate reporting database and created views on Dynamics CRM tables and reporting database tables.
Also, wrote functions for reusability and stored procedures to retrieve data.

Desktop App for Music Industry
