In Detail

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 offers exciting new features that enable you to build and maintain a robust customer relationship management system in your organisation.

This book is your one stop resource to get to grips with all the new features of Dynamics CRM 2011. To make learning fun and engaging, we will build an Airline Compensation Management (ACM) system using Dynamics CRM 2011.

The book starts by setting up the development environment for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011. We will then build a structural architecture for the ACM system and configure it in Dynamics CRM 2011. While doing this, we will learn about the new customization features offered by Dynamics CRM 2011.

We will then move on to Data Importing and will cover the Import Data Wizard tool, as well as the Import file/data web service which provides additional capabilities that are not available in the Import Data Wizard.

We will use client-side programming to perform data validation, automation, and process enhancement and learn powerful event driven server-side programming methods: Plug-Ins and Processes (Formerly Workflows).

The book then steers you towards SharePoint integration, Charts and Dashboards, Customizing the Ribbon and Sitemap, and extending Dynamics CRM 2011 in the cloud.

Finally we will package the ACM solution and learn how to deploy it.

Situations That Will Increase Your Workers Compensation Premiums

Workers compensation insurance is one of the necessary evils that all businesses must face. It may not be the most palatable of subjects, but if a person is in fact injured on the job, its nice to have an insurance policy in place so that the cash won?t have to come out of the business.

As with all things related to insurance, there are plenty of issues that can cause your premiums to increase. One unique factor of workers compensation is that insurance companies can audit your firm to make sure you remain compliant. Here are a few common pitfalls that are rarely mentioned, but need to be respected in order to keep your premium costs stable.

1) Beware of Subcontractors!

A subcontractor is a business that you hire to complete work that you were hired to do. This could be a company, or just a sole proprietor (individual), but it is common practice to hire the necessary skilled people to fill in for a particular job. The risk of doing so lies in the workers compensation premiums that you have to pay.

Here?s how the situation could play out; you hire a subcontractor to do the plumbing on a construction job you are the GC for. He comes, works the job for a couple of weeks getting piping and fittings in, and when he finishes, you cut him a check and send him on his way. What would happen if a couple of months later, your insurance company comes and audits your books?

What they would see is that you hired a separate company to do work for you, and immediately demand to see their insurance certificate. These certificates prove that a particular subcontractor has properly insured himself and any employees he might bring on the job site.

Without this certificate, you are liable to provide workers compensation to these subcontractors, and depending on your insurance plan, you might be liable for hundreds of dollars of extra insurance costs.

2) Working Condition Audits:

Another audit that the insurance company can levy against you is to examine the working conditions at your job site. When you first apply for insurance, to determine your rate an adjuster usually comes to the job site to check in on everything and set a rate that accurately reflects the amount of risk that the company will be taking on.

If you operate a brick-and-mortar store, or an office space that doesn?t change often, your rate will more or less be set for the lifetime of your lease. However, if you work in a profession where working conditions change, such as construction, there is a chance that an auditor will make a random stop at the job site to reassess working conditions.

For most people, this is hardly a problem, as OSHA regulations are pretty strict for those industries, and usually the job site is dictated by these regulations. However, for those that put up a good show for inspectors and ignore regulation the rest of the time, these random checks could be the difference between hundreds of dollars out of your pocket.

In extremely rare cases of serious neglect, the inspector will go ?undercover? and interview the workers there about the working conditions, trying to understand when the violations started happening. If enough evidence is compiled, it is possible that you?ll be paying retroactively for all infractions.

Just Play it Safe:

The point here is that regardless of how you feel about workers compensation, it is necessary. In an ideal world, and in ideal situations, it is a very worthwhile program, as people whom are injured on the job shouldn?t be cut off immediately.

Just take precautions and understand that insurance is a business just like any other, and if they can find a reason to charge you more for the same service, they will!

Book Review - SHERRY SNIDER, Technical Writer

Quit Your Day Job, A Guide for the Self Published Author is NOT an in-depth technical ?how-to.?? It IS a conversational guide (i.e., more English/less tech-speak) to all the options and avenues available to indie authors.

Though many of us enjoy eating computer code for breakfast, the vast majority of writers enjoy ?writing.?? For most, the technical tools are just that?necessary, and often unknown, tools.

With Quit Your Day Job, Mallory shows authors all the tools in her trusty tool box and gives the newbie intro to what each tool is and how it?s best used.? ?Use the right tool for the job,? right?

Again, the book is an overview of items in a successful author?s toolbox.? It?s not a master-class in techie how-to.? It?s conversational English from one author to another.

For example, in the section on Google Analytics, Mallory describes (in regular English) much of the information Google Analytics can provide AND how an author can use that information to grow and best serve readers.? Mallory does NOT dwell on setting up Google Analytics or include screenshots.

That?s okay.? Actually, it?s better than okay.? Since the book is an overview of multiple tools and options, it does exactly what it needs to do.? It introduces the reader to those options.

IF the reader chooses to pursue or investigate a specific tool or option further, there are tons of technical how-tos available online.? With Mallory?s introduction to the tools in Quit Your Day Job, authors now know enough to ask the right questions and dig into the specific tool or resource in-depth.
