Specifications include, but are not limited to: Data migration from Charity 2000 to a new application is required. Additionally, data from paper files must also be entered into the new application. The public downloads, completes and returns forms from this website: IGC: Charity Gaming Forms. Charity Gaming staff records specific information via an Access Database ‘front end’ then files the physical paperwork. The associated Microsoft Access Database ‘back end’ is used to: Manually generate reports. Provide information for investigations & audits. Maintained for archive and search purposes for four years. The current Access Database System is outdated, lacks modern features, does not comply with Section 508 needs, and suffers from a series of patched-together work arounds that have been shoehorned in place to accommodate various legislative changes over the years. Deprecated code/data inside the database make simple migration an unlikely resolution. Many manual processes, some of which are not fully documented, have been created and automation and modernization is paramount in an effort to minimize (and eventually eliminate) those going forward.
