Field Expansion |

|
Mastek offers field expansion services to enable companies to accommodate future growth and changes in the business environment. Enterprises may have to consider expansion or modification of data fields in their legacy databases for a number of reasons: a growing customer base, new accounting standards and codes, changes in telephone numbers, zip codes, global identification numbers and so on. A field expansion exercise may become necessary if companies want to switch from numeric codes to alphanumeric codes.
Modifying data fields in legacy databases is a challenging task. Data fields are not stand alone entities. The values or codes they contain are used by other programs, routines, components, copybooks, maps, screens, reports etc. All entities affected by a data field change will have to be appropriately identified and modified to handle the change.
Mastek has well-defined processes and techniques to rapidly modify or expand your legacy data fields and prepare your company for the future. |
