Beschreibung

An Application Administrator installs, updates, optimizes, debugs and otherwise maintains computer applications for an organization.

Examples of application types include Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Resource anagement (CRM), and Point of Sale (POS), legal contract management, time tracking, accounts payable/receivable, payroll, SOX compliance tracking, budgeting, forecasting and training.
