EOD Reporting System
The EOD Reporting System automates the reports and other management information of the organization.
In regular business this system enables monitoring the employees at different locations. Once logged
into the system, it requires the user to send automated emails to the members of his/her team. This
helps management generate attendance, payroll and notifications of shortages or overages for the day.
Status reports are another useful tool provided to team management. The system makes it possible to
easily and efficiently check on general progress throughout the team without the delay of having to
call in for results daily. Both management and team members find status reports to be a better,
faster means of communicating daily updates.
These reports must be included so that the team can coordinate together. For instance,
if one team member is still working on Module A, it communicates this status to other team members so
they can better coordinate their project task schedule. These status reports are useful to team members
and managers’ even weeks later, often at the end of a monthly work cycle, to reveiw the entire progress of the project.
One key component of the reporting system is recording daily cash transactions by
monitoring the cash coming in and cash going out. After reaching a specified limit, if excessive
cash comes in or flows out, the software notifies the administrator. The EOD reporting system balances
various tender types against expected amounts and totals what the end user has entered for deposits in
the system and matches that against what has actually been deposited. This systems allows for easy,
accurate reconciling against bank statements.

an audit trail as well as each subsequent action such as payment and delivery of the product or service.
The customer's audit trail is then used to respond properly to any inquiries or complaints.
A company might also use an audit trail to provide a basis for account reconciliation, to provide
a historical report to plan and support budgets, and to provide a record of sales in case of a tax audit.

Data Mining
Our automated mining system extracts potential hires from an ever-growing field containing several million résumés.
With that input we build candidate profiles in our proprietary database of over 5.5 million pre-qualified professionals:
candidates who are from your local market, with a broad range of technology expertise, with experience in your industry,
and who can be tapped quickly.
After receiving your requirements we can channel a number of potential candidates into our hiring process,
and rapidly deliver the perfect-fit talent you need. Also the artificial intelligence matches the skills required
for a job along with the skills of the job applicant and suggests right fit jobs to the candidate.
Through data mining technologies, GDKN provides powerful search and data analytics to help streamline
data assessment and document review, saving time and lowering the costs and risks involved in litigation
or investigation. Customers rely on GDKN to provide industry-leading information management.
Traditional methods for information retrieval or searching involve the user entering one or more
keywords and the search returning any document that matches the keywords. However, many people do not
know how to search effectively and the typical results do not provide any indication of which item is
the most relevant to the user. This problem increases as the volume of data being searched increases,
resulting in the user being overwhelmed by an unrealistic number of items which match the search. This
issue has been addressed with the development of Application, which performs search by keywords and
other parameters to find a more focused set of potentially relevant documents more quickly than by a
parametric search alone.
GDKN provide an advanced concept-based search engine designed to be embedded in a variety
of applications to generate better and faster search results. Using the conceptual search
capabilities from GDKN solutions, users can rapidly find information which would otherwise
be time-consuming or impossible to find using the standard keyword or parametric search methods

Screen Data Capture
Our Web Crawling technology is a next generation Screen Data Capture-based client data-management and processing system.
The system helps to scrape data from the web and efficiently manage and process the same. This allows the user to automate
almost any repetitive web operations such as collecting pieces of information from Web pages, extracting web links etc.
making the process faster, error–free and convenient.
When our web crawling system visits a web page, it "reads" the visible text, the hyperlinks,
and the content of the various tags used in the site, such as keyword rich Meta tags. This is how it filters the
data and adds the required data to the company database. The System is programmed to comb through the Internet
periodically to determine whether there has been any significant changes.
If a site is experiencing heavy traffic or technical difficulties, the system is programmed to note that and revisit
the site again, hopefully after the technical issues have subsided. Web crawling is an important method for collecting data on,
and keeping up with, the rapidly expanding internet. A vast number of web pages are continually being added every day, and
information is constantly changing so for this reason the web crawling system regularly ensures that our databases are up-to-date.
There are several uses for the program, perhaps the most popular being search engines using it to provide webs
surfers with relevant websites. Other users include linguists and market researchers, or anyone trying to search
information from the Internet in an organized manner. Alternative names for a web crawler include web spider,
web robot, bot, crawler, and automatic indexer.
A web crawler may be used by anyone seeking to collect information on the internet. Search engines frequently use
web crawlers to collect information about what is available on public web pages. Their primary purpose is to
collect data so that when internet surfers enter a search term on their site, they can quickly provide the surfer
with relevant web sites. Linguists may use a web crawler to perform a textual analysis, combing the internet to
determine what words are commonly used today. Market researchers may use a web crawler to determine and assess
trends in a given market.
Key Features
- Copying text from a web page.
- Entering data into forms and submitting.
- Iterating through search results pages.
