Letter to doctex

Posted on January 27th, 2004 by Sacha Chua

Thank you for the opportunity to be of help. We will concentrate on
the scheduled updates system first so that the Society can immediately
benefit from its drive for computerization.

In two weeks, I will show you a system that an encoder can use to keep
track of Jesuits’ periodically-scheduled requirements. Upon opening,
the software will display a list of Jesuits who have unfulfilled
requirements. The encoder can search this list, check off fulfilled
requirements, or edit any of the data displayed.

This prototype will help you demonstrate the benefits of
computerization while giving the Society something to work with right
away. In addition, your valuable feedback will help improve the
software.

I look forward to being of service.
