NIGHT ELECTRONICS Week 6(11th February 2013 - 15th February 2013)

Assalamualaikum w.b.t   /hihi

On the 11th and 12th of February, it is public holiday as it is Chinese New Year. Therefore, the company is closed for 2 days. And it starts to operate normally back on the 13th of February 2013.

In this week, I was asked by Pn Mastura, my Head of Department in create a file on excel to register all the service form number. This is to help track back all the service number whether it is already been return to the company, or it is still with the technician. This is due to so many incident that happen which technician stated that they have already return all the service form to the office, however, the company didn't received any of it. It is also to identified whether the service form has already been send to other department such as quotation or finance department to  do claim for the months.

I asked Pn Mastura to do the excel form and stored it into PC, so it would be easy for us to track back the service form number which will help to save time. However, she insist to print it out and make a file for it. She said, by printing out a hardcopy, it would be an easy way for backup in case of data corrupt and no redundant.

This is how my sixth week ends.

Thank you.

NIGHT ELECTRONICS Week 4(28th January 2013 - 1st February 2013)

Assalamualaikum w.b.t  /hihi

This is an update for my internship logbook for the fourth week in Night Electronics.

Other than doing filing, answering phone calls and add job in to the system, in this week, I was taught on how to register serial number for printer, projector, CPU, and UPS into the system. Each of the hardware has its own serial number for the technician to trace it whether it is the correct item that has problem.

Each hardware need to be registered first here first

Each job added has to have its own serial number and project code then only it is complete. Each serial number will has its detail, for example, it is for which company, what type is the hardware is, what company is it for, what is it brand and model and whether it is still on warranty or not.

Each project for each company consist its own Project code

Then, I also need to add the serial number to its project code and location. by doing so, then only I can add the job completely. Each of the serial number added will be stored in each project which is sort by their own customer and location. This is to ensure all the hardware supplied by Night Electronics are easy to be trace and track.

On the 1st of February 2013, it was a public holiday for our company because it is Federal Territory Day. Even Night Electroncis is located in Ampang, Selangor, the company follows the Wilayah off day.

This is how my fourth week goes. 


Thank you.

NIGHT ELECTRONICS Week 3(21st January 2013 - 25th January 2013)

Assalamualaikum w.b.t   /hihi

This is the third update for my logbook undergoing internship in Night Electronics for the third week.
As usual, I need to do filing for the service form that been sent by the technician, other than that, I was taught by my Head of Department on how to add job into the system. Add job means, to log cases that has been reported to the Helpdesk department whether through phone calls or email.

Figure shows system view list of job is added

 The above figure shows a view when a job is already added, from here we can see who is the person in charged for each of the job added, and each of it has its own job number which represent each of the job.

Each of the job that need to be add into the system requires several important details, and the details are as listed below:

• Caller name
• Username
• Location
• Phone number
• Problem
• Serial number of the product
• Model of the product
• Brand of the product

All this details are collected  during the caller calls to make a report for the problem or via emails. It is required for all the details to be complete in order to make it easy to assign technician later.

Figure shows a job that is complete added into the system

A job that has been add would be assign to the technician for the technician to attend. In some cases, technician from NE are not send to do repairing, however, it requires the Helpdesk staff to call directly to the supplier for their engineer to attend, but Helpdesk staff need to follow up the case after 2 days to see whether the problem is solved or not.

Figure shows an update view for a job, this is where Helpdesk need to remark every updates of the job.

When technician from NE has attend the job, or engineer for supplier company has attend, the job would be completed and the case will be closed. Therefore, it's the Helpdesk job to update the remark regarding the job and to closed it.

Week by week my task load starts to increase, i have learned more about the company through the task specification given to me. I have also had experience my self though the real working world and I can clearly see most of the things I learned in Organizational behavior class.

From doing only filing for service form, I was asked to answer phone calls, and now my Head of Department has entrusted me to add job for problem reported to my department. This is how my task goes for the week.

Thank you.

NIGHT ELECTRONICS Week 2(14th January 2013 - 18th January 2013)

Assalamualaikum w.b.t  /hihi

This is an update for my second week of undergoing internship in Night Electronics.
As usual, I was asked to do filing for the service form that is sent by technician everyday. Since NE have many branches Malaysian wide, therefore, I have to make sure that all the service form is well organize and it is file into the correct file.

View of My Planner once it is already saved

One new thing that I have learn this week is, I was taught how to manage my planner. Planner is a system where I was required to do everyday to record attendance other than doing thumb print. Using this planner, the HR and Finance department are able to trace whether their staff is working on that day, or they are on leave.

Once an employee has already key-in their planner, it's required for the Head of the Department to approved, then only it can be declare he or she has attend on that particular day.

The above figure shows the image of Planner that I has completed for the past 8 week period of undergoing internship in Night Electronics. As it can be seen, the planner has mention the date, time, and status for the planner. From here, Head of Department, and HR management are able to detect for late comers, absenteeism and who is taking leave.

Other than completing planners, I also were asked to answer the phone, for people who would like to log cases regarding their electronics gadget. Normally, cases like printer runs out of toner, paper stuck, PC out of power supply and etc.

I was asked to take details regarding the caller and the problem that they are having so that it can be log into the system, and technician can be assign to do maintenance or repairing. There is nothing much to do also for the second week other than doing filing for the service form.



Thank you.

Then, we were given explanation on our monthly allowance and the claim that can be made for OT and traveling. Later, we were introduced by Pn Suriati regarding the company system and how to used it for attendance, applying leave, applying claims, adding jobs and etc.

After completing a few form form the company, we then only were brought to visit each of the department and being introduced to each of the staff there. Later, I was taken to my department which is the Helpdesk department and been introduced to my head and the other colleague.

For this first week, there is nothing much I was asked to do, as the head thought that the period for me to undergo internship at this company is too short and nothing much to be toughs. therefore, for this first week i was only asked to do filing for the service form that had been return from technician that already attend job.

I was required to separate the service form according to its location, date of the job been attended, and the service form number itself. It is required to be sort in increasing order, this is to ensure that it would be easy to be track back whenever the audit department need it to do quotation or there is any error occur regarding the job.
