8:30 – 4:30 ESSO

  • The contractors punched a hole in my roof today. Got to see the neighborhood from waaay up high. Pretty cool.
  • Backups
  • Denise is going to put Jessica and I in for xacta(?) accounts
  • Made progress through the yearly training. Funny thing, after I started, I could hear someone else doing theirs as well. Need to bring in earphones though – it’s a noisy office.
  • Need to burn some images for Brian.
  • Need to fix the VISIBILITY website. People are interacting with the links wrong, so I’m going to change the links to make the pages match the actions. I’m installing Adobe Creative Suite so that I can use the project. I wonder if Coldfusion can check out from subversion? Nope.
  • Checked out Visibility from Documentation. Going to try DreamWeaver on it.
  • I think I opened the correct project, but it does have some Ipsum Lorem in it…
  • Highlighted fields for PPM and PA should reflect that users are entering data for the previous month. “Past Due” should reflect the 10th day (possibly the 17th) in PA
  • Working on VSS4, trying to figure out why the fon’t isn’t courier. It comes in OK, just is never set in PrettyTextEditor.as. Wondering if ApplyFormatOperation is the culprit? I think I may need to build a small sandbox project to try out.

  • changed VisibilityScripting4 to embed AS3Dictionary.xml and SmartEditor.css
  • fixed FlexUtils not showing Compilation Date correctly
  • working on users’ project status script…
    • query to return all project mgrs with overdue data
      • created CurrentMonthOverdueUsers.py – in VS4 resources/scripts directory
      • SELECT m.login as user_login, p.project_number, p.description, a.amount, o.uid, o.type, o.year, o.year_count,
        o.month_11 as ‘Aug’
        FROM projects p, budget_centers c, budget_amounts a, obligations_outlays o, _projects_service_project_mgrs m
        WHERE p.uid = c.project_id
        AND a.budget_center_id = c.uid
        AND a.year = 2012 – p.begin_year + 1
        AND o.project_id = p.uid
        AND o.funding_id = c.uid
        AND o.year + o.year_count – 1 = 2012
        AND o.year_count = 1
        AND ISNULL(o.month_11)
        AND p.uid = m.project_id
        UNION
        SELECT p.proj_mgr_login as user_login, p.project_number, p.description, a.amount, o.uid, o.type, o.year, o.year_count,
        o.month_11 as ‘Aug’
        FROM projects p, budget_centers c, budget_amounts a, obligations_outlays o
        WHERE p.uid = c.project_id
        AND a.budget_center_id = c.uid
        AND a.year = 2012 – p.begin_year + 1
        AND o.project_id = p.uid
        AND o.funding_id = c.uid
        AND o.year + o.year_count – 1 = 2012
        AND o.year_count = 1
        AND ISNULL(o.month_11)
        AND NOT ISNULL(p.proj_mgr_login)

8:00 – 2:00 ESSO

  • Made backups
  • Looks like the test plan is good enough for Vern. Jessica is sending it off to Denise
  • New data uploads on Friday. We’ll see how the reports look
  • Finished with scroll bars in SeriesConfigBase.
  • Wrote up monthly status report

2:00 – 6:00 FP

  • Bringing the prototype to PAD meeting
  • Demo went well – Shawn thinks that the “sensorator(?)” “haptor(?)” (sensor/actuator) might be the best thing to build the paper out of. The trick would be to show a bunch of uses and focus more on the driver(s).

  • added “No Email” for the users with no email address when generating Financial Data Request
  • removed EdgeUtils from VisibilityScripting4
  • working on query to generate user, project, description, status, and month (for the last 4 months maybe?) as rows
    • query to extract current year and fiscal month
      • SELECT DATE_FORMAT(CURRENT_DATE(), ‘%Y’) as year,
        IF(DATE_FORMAT(CURRENT_DATE(), ‘%m’) – 9 < 1,
        DATE_FORMAT(CURRENT_DATE(), ‘%m’) + 3, DATE_FORMAT(CURRENT_DATE(), ‘%m’) – 9 ) as month
    • query to find missing August entries
      • SELECT p.begin_year, a.*, o.uid, o.type, o.year, o.year_count,
        o.month_11 as ‘Aug’
        FROM projects p, budget_centers c, budget_amounts a, obligations_outlays o
        WHERE p.uid = c.project_id
        AND a.budget_center_id = c.uid
        AND a.year = 2012 – p.begin_year + 1
        AND o.project_id = p.uid
        AND o.funding_id = c.uid
        AND o.year + o.year_count – 1 = 2012
        AND o.year_count = 1
        AND ISNULL(o.month_11)
        AND p.uid = 99

8:00 – 4:00 ESSO

  • Tried out the test plan that JR and I put together last Friday. It went well, and she’s going to see how Vern wants it integrated into the actual test plan
  • It looks like that the email-based system will be used for about 14 of the PMs until they are able to connect to the VisTool. So that means that we need to tweak that part of the tool
    • All emails for a peorson should be listed in the “cut and paste” email that’s generated. If there is no email in a particular field, then it should probably read “unset” rather than blank or some unprintable character, which is what’s happening noe.
    • August is misspelled.
    • We need to write a script that produces a table with user, project, description, status, and month (for the last 4 months maybe?) as rows. This will let us produce reports in VISIBILITY.
  • Back to putting in help/guidance in FlexiChart. Done!
    • Add scrolling frame for series manipulation

Dong Shin 08.03.2012

  • added the revised questions for the Financial Mitigations Plan
  • fixed typos in the FMP
  • fixed Contract Window not showing contracts
  • clean database set up for PPM src/main/resources/database/project_portfolio_clean.sql
  • went over the database structure to clean up relations – src/main/resources/database/DBUpdateSQLs08032012.sql
  • fixed Project Mgmt permissions not behaving correctly
  • fixed logging out messing up panels states
  • fixed services filter not working

8:30 – ESSO

  • 10:30 Weekly Meeting
  • 1:00 Test plan walk through. Well, that didn’t go well, in that it was a cut-and paste job from the manual and not a test plan at all. Will start writing an actual plan tomorrow.
  • Installed Flashbuilder 4.5 from disk. That appears to have fixed my particular problem.

Instructions
use this panel to set up properties that apply to the entire chart

  • X-Axis Field: Determines which row will be used to provide the labels for the X-axis in the chart. This will need to be adjusted only very rarely.
  • Base at Zero. Plots values relative to zero. If more range is needed, uncheck, and results will be plotted so that the lowest value is on the X-axis
  • Legend Enabled: Shows a legent identifying the chart components
  • Legend Position: Lets you select between a legend placed at the bottom of the chart or to the right

8:00 – 4:30 ESSO

  • Installed new IngestManager
  • Tested Dong’s VSS compiled in 4.5 same lag, so not deployed.
  • Working on adding text to Flexichart, but the IDE hangs every time it attempts an auto-complete. Going to have to re-install.
  • Reinstalling had no effect. Let’s try a new workspace….
  • That didn’t work either. It’s only in Flexichart that I’m having this problem. Since that’s the case, let’s try re-creating it.
  • Here’s the file structure:
  • Ok, I’ve changed the IDE and the project, and ConfigScreen.mxml still causes eclipse to hang. Maybe it’s the com.fgm.flexichart.config package? All the pieces extend canvas, so I don’t see what the big deal is. The workaround is to edit in VI and refresh in the IDE. Lame. Utterly lame.
