What was happening
A recurring payroll workflow involved ZIP archives of PDF payslips that had to be extracted, parsed, renamed, transformed and passed on.
Done by hand, it was repetitive, detailed work with sensitive documents.
What needed to change
A consistent, auditable way to process each payroll run with less manual handling.
What was done
Mike was involved in designing and building the processing pipeline and its trigger.
Why that approach
Starting from the existing SharePoint environment meant the people involved kept a familiar way to begin each run.
The outcome
Substantial parts of a repetitive, detail-heavy process automated.
A consistent sequence of steps for each payroll run.
