Artifacts Management System (AMS)
Artifacts Management System (AMS) is developed for Grace consultants. AMS is built on struts framework, which is one of the powerful framework, and follows the MVC architecture. System is developed for effectively marinating the artifacts in the organization and to give the users a role base access to the artifacts. AMS is an effecting versioning system where the system holds number of versions of artifacts, which is configurable. All artifacts have to go through an approval process by the users having approver role for add, delete and revise operations. AMS supports MHTML, PDF, power point, excel and word formats for artifacts. AMS provide content search for all the artifacts. Users can specify a key word in the artifact and can search for it. Users adding a artifact can effectively cross link the same with related artifacts available. AMS provide a feature that will allow users to easily track the changes made to the system by other users. Users will be able to search through existing artifacts by specifying search criteria. AMS contains an administration module where admin can create users and track them. In the administration part admin can create the placeholders for the artifacts. Users having the Approver role list can be an approver for a artifact. If the user selects an approver while adding, revising, or deleting a artifact the artifact will be put for approval. The operation for which approval was requested will be carried out only when all the approvers in the selected set of approvers approve the operation
