Add features and correct problems in Telecom Billing Management system -- 2

$15-25 USD / hour

Existing Cold Fusion/MS SQL web application must have defects corrected (several errors are appearing - these may be bad data in database or code errors), and additional functionality added in order to make it useful and to replace a business process which uses Excel spreadsheets for reviewing and reporting on Telcom/Data/Cellular bills. This system was developed 10 years ago for this purpose but was abandoned due to staff changes and not used very much at all. System as is today will do much of what is needed, but interface page changes are needed as well as database table/field changes are needed to support required reporting as well as data entry needed. System scope document/spreadsheet attached has a draft scope. While this may be refined, it will not be expanded. I do reserve the right to add detail needed to scope items to ensure clarity. There are 3 tabs in the spreadsheet so please read them all before replying. If needed, I can provide a login to existing system in order to view. The data is out of date and some data may not have been entered correctly, but you will be able to see how system works. Existing system was constructed in a single project by a skilled developer who commented the code and used best practices for database and page design. The system was designed for a user to accounts for a customer (account number was on a bill from a carrier) in the form of a template (Bill) that consisted of BTNS (sub accounts) and then services (charges on bill). Each month, the charges from the monthly bill would be entered in the system and compared to the benchmarks established when the template was created. The system would flag on usage, rate, or other factors. The same user or another user would review the bill and approve/change the amount to be paid. The system would store the information and then output a page which could be printed and sent to customer. This overall process will remain, but changes are needed and reporting enhancements are needed as described in attached spreadsheet. The "[login to view URL]" file below has the .cfm files for the current system. Also attached are some spreadsheets used for the bill review process to give an idea of what will be needed for the output reporting. I have more of these and anticipate there to be between 4-8 different types of output report templates which may be needed. I want any coders responding to this to give me an estimate of the number of hours required and their hourly rate. Most of this project is not difficult, but he report builder portion will not be simple and I will expect chosen developer to assist by suggesting the best way to achieve the project goals.

Dear sir, I have got your job posting for web site development by Cold Fusion. In fact, at this site there are not much work for Cold Fusion. So I didn't do Cold Fusion project nowadays. But I've ever worked for very large Cold Fusion project with American client a year ago and I enjoyed it very much as Cold Fusion is very interesting due to its simplicity and well-structured model. I used CFEclipse for development tool. It was private project, so I couldn't share its URL. I've been working for more than 30$/hr, but for your cold fusion project I will work full-time with $20/hr as I'm very interested in Cold Fusion. Please let me estimate time line after detail discussion. Success is my main aim and I can acquire any new techniques quickly. I will be available more than 50 hours per week and able to start your project as soon as possible according to you. Thank you for your consideration. Best Regards

Good Day, I believe i will be perfect for your project as i have a lot of MS SQL, SSIS and ETL knowledge, which your project will require. I have a lot of fresh ideas for your project that i would love to share with you once you have made your freelancer selection. I would love to be a part of your project as SSIS, Data and ETL processes are some of my favorite tasks. My vast background in IT also means i have coding background and will be able to debug/fix any application coding issues that may be faced in your project. I believe that my i will be able to finish the initial stage of this project(Fixing defects and getting system running as expected) in under 40 hours. With regards to the second part of the project(report writing); i have worked with this type of request on various occasions and i have accurately billed clients for 8 or less hours per report(sometimes 30 mins), including testing. Depending on report functionality and complexity. So the timing of the second phase depends on how many reports need to be written. I have a surefire way of generating and sharing reports with end-users that i will gladly share with you once you have selected a freelancer. I have many great ideas i cannot wait to share with you and hope to hear from you soon, Jeandre Knox

Hello. I am the best candidate for this because I am doing this type of work regularly in my current job. I am consistently making import and exports for our system. I take csv or excel data, write a ColdFusion import script and put it into our database. I get data from multiple different data sources and am responsible for 'smoothing' that data. I write many exports back into Excel for how the customer needs to see the data. I have a masters in Computer Science. I am a skilled developer and because I do this regularly feel i can get things done for you faster than a normal pace. However, I do not see the attachments you described. I am not worried I can handle the work, but it is harder to give you an estimate. I can generally create my import scripts very quickly, usually under 2 days for some complicated data in our system. I can generate an output equally as fast. I am the DB operator at my current job, so handling the backend of the DB and updating fields, writing SQL is absolutely no problem either. I feel I can easily perform this tasking for you quickly and efficiently. I can maintain whatever coding standard is in place, keep commenting consistent, and fix whatever issues you are having. Good luck and thank you for your consideration. 3/14. I saw you updated the listing. I went in and downloaded the code. It looks like it is written fine. I moved around in it with no problem. I didnt see a scope document, but am still confident in ability to help
