Abstract:
Managing fuel transactions during off-hours was a manual, error-prone process at fuel islands, leading to inefficiencies and revenue losses for the client. The traditional workflow involved handwritten logs, manual data entry into spreadsheets, and subsequent updates to the billing system. Typos, missing transactions, and delays were common issues, impacting billing accuracy and operational efficiency.
To address these challenges, the IT team designed and implemented an automated system to process daily fuel transaction data. This system replaced manual workflows with automated spreadsheet processing, integrating seamlessly with the AS400 system for billing and invoicing. As a Business Analyst and QA Lead, my role involved defining requirements, designing end-to-end test strategies, and ensuring the system's reliability through rigorous testing.
This paper explores the challenges faced in transitioning from manual to automated processes, the strategies employed to mitigate risks, and the impact of automation on business efficiency. Key concepts include process automation, error handling, integration testing, and quality assurance practices. The implementation not only enhanced operational efficiency but also ensured accurate revenue tracking, eliminating manual errors and providing timely data for invoicing
