Project
Database System
The application is a networked
database into which data from Processors is entered.
This data, when associated with the appropriate
contract, generates a Payment Certificate. Various
reports provide statistical and financial analysis
of the data. Summary information can be exported
in XML format.
Current enhancements include the
electronic import of data direct from Processors
and the export of invoicing information for subsequent
import into accounts systems.
The application is written in Delphi
using a relational Paradox database.
Corporate Website
As AQM's membership is distributed,
the AQM website has been developed to build a
community. A regular weekly newsletter gives information
on the week's trade.
