Microsoft Powerapps -ohjelman soveltuvuus matka- ja kululaskutuksen mobiilisovelluksen luomiseen : toiminnallinen toteutus Digia Oyj:lle
No full textTässä opinnäytetyössä tarkastellaan mobiilisovelluksen luomista Microsoft PowerApps -virtuaalialustalla, joka ei vaadi aiempaa ohjelmointiosaamista. Tutkimus on toteutettu luomalla matka- ja kululaskujen syöttöön tarkoitettu mobiilisovellus. Matka- ja kululaskut syötetään mobiilisovelluksella web service -rajapinnan yli Microsoft D365 Business Central -toiminnanohjausjärjestelmän tietokantaan jatkokäsittelyä varten.
Työssä tutkimus on tehty toiminnallisena työnä hyödyntäen kirjallisuus- ja verkkomateriaalia, asiantuntijahaastatteluita ja vertailuanalyysia. Opinnäytetyön laatija on työskennellyt asiantuntijatehtävissä 2018 alkaen työn toimeksiantajayrityksessä, Digia Oyj:ssä.
Haastattelut on tehty opinnäytetyön kohdeyrityksen työntekijöille. Niissä tarkennetaan PowerApps-sovelluksen tarpeita ja sen tuomia mahdollisuuksia, ja verrataan niitä työssä tehtyihin havaintoihin. Vertailuanalyysi toteutuu luomalla vastaava mobiilisovellus suoraan toiminnanohjausjärjestelmän käyttöliittymään.
Tutkimuksen tuloksina syntyi matka- ja kululaskujen sovellus Microsoft PowerAppsilla ja Microsoft Business Centralilla toteutettuna. Näiden sovellusten kehitysten pohjalta on kirjattu päätelmät teknillisestä ja kaupallisesta näkökulmasta, vertailu asiakkaan ja sovellustoimittajan hyödyistä sekä sovelluksen jatkokehitysideat.In this thesis is inspected creating a mobile software with Microsoft PowerApps virtual platform which requires no prior programming experience. Study is done by creating a mobile software for feeding travel expense and bill of service entries. The entries are inserted over web service API to Microsoft D365 Business Central ERP’s database for further handling.
Research has been done through a practical implementation by utilizing book and web material, specialist interviews and comparison analysis. The author of the thesis has worked as a specialist from 2018 onwards in the case company, Digia Plc.
Interviews are done for the case company’s employees. Questions are to pinpoint needs and opportunities of PowerApps and to compare them to observations done by the author. Comparison analysis is done by creating a similar software UI in the ERP.
As a result of the research, a software for travel expense and bill of service was made with Microsoft PowerApps and Microsoft D365 Business Central. Conclusions have been written on the basis of the software development from technical and commercial aspects, comparison of customer’s and vendor’s benefits and further development ideas for the software

Governance communication: A primer (In the context of disaster risk reduction and management)
No full textTABLE OF CONTENTS
Introduction
Communication and Governance
Government Communication
Governance Communication
Components of Governance Communication System
- Government policies supporting the provision of communication services
- Government institutions providing communication services
- Communication human resources or personnel
- Communication infrastructures/media to support communication services
- Coordination mechanism for governance communication
- Public sphere/platform for public dialogues
Annex(EXCERPT)
Governing is comparable to a situation where a family head talks and listens regularly to each of his/her family members’ concerns and interests. As with the head of the family, the government’s focus on its people’s welfare encompasses a multitude of concerns – health, food security, education, employment, peace and order, and disaster risk reduction and management (DRRM), to name a few. DRRM has been a vital concern in recent years due to worldwide climate change conditions that have been wreaking havoc in the country and unduly affecting all aspects of people’s lives.
In implementing the policies, programs, and projects, communication is seen as one of the fundamental and crucial factors in the process of governing and in achieving the government’s development-oriented objectives.
Basically, this primer on governance communication is essential in understanding governance communication (govcomm) and its components (policy, institutions, personnel, media, communication mechanisms, and public sphere). This is important among government officials and stakeholders because it will serve as guide in studying their govcomm that will lead policy makers, and all the participants in the process, in formulating policies and ordinances related to governance and communication.Disclaimer
