E-Verify Check an individual’s eligibility to work in the United States, regardless of citizenship. –Employer –Designated Agent Provides automated link –Department of Homeland Security Employment eligibility –Social Security Administration Valid SSN 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009

E-Verify Strict guidelines for use –Employee must be notified of E-Verify use –New employees only –Not for screening applicants –Not to be used selectively –I-9 Form must be completed first 3 3 INS (Immigration and Naturalization Services) Vital step –Employee privacy must be maintained 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009

Code Cleaning Easy to work with Improve Code Quality Reduce Redundancy Try to achieve a production level code Faster execution Complexity Reduces size of setup package 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009

Code Cleaning Example –Previous code // button1 this.button1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(39, 99); this.button1.Name = "button1"; this.button1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(184, 23); this.button1.TabIndex = 16; this.button1.Text = "Display Case Summary List"; this.button1.UseVisualStyleBackColor = true; this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button1_Click); –Current code // DispCaseSumbtn this.DispCaseSumbtn.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(39, 99); this.DispCaseSumbtn.Name = "DispCaseSumbtn"; this.DispCaseSumbtn.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(184, 23); this.DispCaseSumbtn.TabIndex = 16; this.DispCaseSumbtn.Text = "Display Case Summary List"; this.DispCaseSumbtn.UseVisualStyleBackColor = true; this.DispCaseSumbtn.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.DispCaseSumbtn_Click); 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009

Progress Make it Windows Vista compatible Twain Code Cleaning Adding additional transaction details Remodeling some of the GUI 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009

Issues Faced and Lessons Learned Twain involved license and version issues. –Proper system setup was important Data parser exceptions –Name differences Default variable names (Visual Studio 2008) –Meaningful names made code reading challenging Find discrepancies early –Debugging takes time –Communicating takes time 04/30/ CSCI Spring 2009
