S&J Link Jobcard Web Application

This is an application we have been working on for a couple of months for conservatory manufacturer S&J Link Ltd. The requirement was for a zero install application which could take the place of their current, paper-based job tracking system.
That requirement soon expanded to cover additional tasks like importing customer details from the existing Sage accounting system, search and delivery run features. The result is a browser based application that the sales, production and delivery staff all use to ensure jobs are completed and delivered to site on time. Now that everyone is working from one central information resource errors and omissions are much reduced. By carefully identifying the proper procedures and processes which should currently be applied at Link we have also ensured that jobs cannnot be progressed without all of the relevant information.
Technically the application is written in ASP.NET 2.0 and uses a SQL Server database. As a slight aside, this is the first time we have ever been involved in a project that really does give even more productivity in widescreen!
