Essay / What I learned at Critical Systems, Inc. - 1722
I started working at CSI on September 25, 2013 and finished on November 22, 2013. When I first reported , Jill Mortensen and I sat down with Saira Ortiz and discussed my learning goals. Jill Mortensen was my supervisor, but I worked more with Saira Ortiz because she does more accounts payable and accounts receivable. Jill handles more of the payroll, taxes, and 401k. Sometimes Jill worked with some of the accounts payable and accounts receivable. Saira and I also entered the checks we received for vendors. Also we did collection calls and collection letters which was something new, I never heard about collection calls or collection letters at school. The equipment I primarily worked with were computers with Sage 50 and file cabinets, printers and scanners. The initial learning objectives were: Understand the process between accounts payable and accounts receivable and entering payments, understand the difference between accounts payable and accounts receivable, match and group purchase orders with purchase orders order and invoices, process payroll (payroll, taxes and 401k) and receive payments. Most of the time my learning goals remained consistent, but there were times when they changed. Over time, I found that some of my learning goals had changed; I learned how to write collection letters and enter checks in Sage 50. The learning objectives became repetitive, which is great. At least there has been some change in learning objectives. The learning objectives were ambitious, but not too demanding. The goals were somewhat demanding, sometimes it was difficult to match purchase orders with purchase orders and invoices, because sometimes there was... middle of paper..... .hase Order in the list shortcuts. I would enter the supplier I wish to order from and I need to make sure the shipping address: is the one I wish to ship the items to, if it is not correct either by choosing the Drop Shipping box under the Date:, then I need to enter the customer name in the Customer ID: box. I can type CSI or SITE if the order is for stock, then I click the bottom button to the right of Ship to 1 and choose the address I want or enter it. Then in the box where the customer sales number goes, I have to type STOCK. Next, I would choose how I would like the product to be shipped. Next, I need to enter the quantity I'm asked to enter, then I need to enter the item number (if there is one). Finally, once the purchase order is completed, I need to print it and fax it to the seller. Then I need to attach the fax confirmation to the purchase order and file it appropriately..
