Week 6, Thursday

Today Mona told me that they will applied my suggestion which is appalling Microsoft Office Visio which will help them in creating direction map, calendar, flow chart, organization chart and timeline. The IT coordinator was downloading the software for each employee’s computer. Mona asked me to tech Iman the Administrative Assistant the basics in Visio before I leave and I strongly agreed to have this opportunity =)
Also, Mona asked me to give them all files that I worked on with Visio because they want to use if they have any changing because now they are applying Microsoft Office Visio. I felt happy that I did something great in the institution.
I went to Mona talking with her about my mentor Mr. Tridib visit to the institution for next weeks and I want to make an appointment with her according to the available timings for my mentor displaying in the his calendar. She said it will be fine to meet her on Wednesday, 19 May, 2010 at 11:00 am then I booked in his calendar informing him about the meeting date and day.
Waiting for you Mr. Tridib :)

Today I worked on Mona task which is designing flow charts in Microsoft Office Visio. She gave to designing all Purchasing Methods used at EIAST which are Petty Cash Purchases, Purchasing by requesting suppliers Quotes (RPQ), Purchasing by Request of Proposals (RFP), Direct Purchase Order (DPO) and Corporate Purchasing Card. It took from me a lot of time because I have I read all steps foe each procedure carefully and summarize it then start creating the flow chart after I finished each one I showed it to Mona for checking. She thanked me for this great job because I am working with Visio which they don’t have.

Also, I worked with Mariam the Accountant with payment voucher first I was noticed how she work then I started helping her, after that she left me work alone. I was searching the number of PV between files then scan the invoice.
Moreover, ma and Mona discussed the “Step for Petty Cash Purchase Reimbursement Procedures” and she asked me to draw a flow chart for the steps because I have the Microsoft Office Visio and the computers at institution don’t apply this software. I suggest to them to apply this useful software which will help them in many things such as creating organization chart, flow chart and location map.
