Has anyone implemented QAS alonside Oracle HR? I would like to know the implementation effort and what is needed ongoing to maintain it with new postcodes etc.

Have a look at http://www.qas.com/oracle/technical-information.htm

I have seen it done once, but never actually implemented (it was already there).

Hope this helps.

Gavin,

Thanks for that, looks very useful.

Anyone ACTUALLY implemented it tho?

Didn't they do it at that org loosely connected with the Nation's Health? Also at that other place loosely connected with the nation's defence? No details though, but I know a man who might have some, in the case of the latter.

yep they did have it at the place connected to the nations defence... And they got it working once or twice too!

Yes, it's in use on the NHS project. Has its own schema in the DB where all their stuff resides so that it's protected from upgrades and patches etc.
I can't provide any more info for now as i am on a short xmas break (well 2 weeks to be precise) - if you can keep your bits crossed until the new year i may be able to provide further help.

I can wait until the new year, just wanted to know how much I should quote them for doing it.

Usually, QAS sell a few days of implementatation effort alongside the licences to set the thing up. I've used them for this for both core form addresses and self-service addresses.

They will let you set it up yourselves, but we've found it more appropriate to give them a few quid and leave it to them.
