Framework for Automated Reporting in EU funded Projects
Keywords:
automatic financial data capture, automated testing, scripting languagesAbstract
Reporting processes in EU funded projects involve a huge amount of financial operations. This time consuming procedure can be easily automated as it involves repetitive operations. The novelty of the paper consists in the presentation of AutoFiState software application for automatic financial data capture in projects financed through ESF (European Social Fund) in Romania. The AutoFiSate application was developed on the basis of results obtained in the fields of automated testing and scripting languages. The use of the AutoFiState software application leads to maximum effectiveness in how ESF funds are used by reducing the time needed to draw up the financial reports and the related labor costs. Using scripting languages to develop such reporting-support programs we can improve reporting and save employees
effort and time.
