(Salesforce and Other CRM Like Oracle for Sales and Other Management Systems to be
used within the Company for employees of the Company only, not shown to the outside
world or customer using the service, or product).

-Designed for the end users, which are the employees of the company itself.

2)External System:

(Any Business System that is made keeping in mind to be used for their customer.)
Examples:
Amazon, Walmart, and Myntra are official websites for self-checkout and shopping.
MCD self-order Machine. Walmart self-checkout machine.
So your JOB as BA is to get or gather the REQUIREMENT either for Internal
System or External System.

Q: What is the requirement then?

A: So basically Requirement is the change in the Existing System.


and if a System does not exist then How should a System work or be made
or built.

Suppose Amazon wants to integrate Paypal in/at their checkout page then definitely
person presenting Amazon will come in contact with the business analyst, BA will
understand the requirement and get the reason why, and accordingly, he will collect the
requirements in detail from all other sources available and then document it and will
connect with internal IT team that involves QA and Developers.

Amazon adding PayPal Integration is a typical example of it.

90% of the projects these days fall under this category.

To Revamp the Whole Website built with older technologies into newer technologies.
(you trash away the old legacy system and replace it with a new advanced system
providing all older features of the old system with new features required for a new era of
generation.
Okay so for the System Re-Engineering, BA's Role is to do with the Reverse Engineering,
where he has to prepare documentation describing every single functionality of the older
system or application that it used to perform earlier, from single one-click functionality
to all other features.

Apart from the older functionality listed in the documentation, the new functionality has
to be added somewhere for sure so that to get a new touch overall.

Senior Developer, and other decision-making personalities of the companies to work
with them for an escalation-free project delivery. He/She is mainly responsible for the
following:

3) To decide the budget after discussing and checking the scope of work.
4) To check if any blocks or escalations are coming along the project way & to work on
them.
Q: What is the deliverable of a Business Analyst?

A: A document that contains the Requirement also called a Business Requirement


Document. It is deliverable to the client and not to the internal
Development Team.

This Document contains an Overview of the requirement & not a detailed analysis.

Development Team?

A: Functional Requirement Document also called FRD. It is a document that


contains details of requirements and is further classified as follows:

1)FRD (Functional Requirement Document)


2) Use Cases
3) User Story

This is nothing but the flow of requirements to be followed in a typical style or format.

All these documents with different formats ultimately have the same motto and that is
Requirement Gathering. The only difference is how the information or requirement
gathering will be displayed in that particular Document.s

In general, it depends on the company how they would like to document their
requirement so that it could be easy for their accessibility and understanding.

Q: What will be the role of the System Architect?

A: System Architect, a Team Lead basically who leads the team because he has no. of
experience in the working profession. So he will design the whole roadmap or architect
the system from daily scrum calls till uploading it on the server. A System Architect is
not a group of people, he is just one guy.

Suppose he has any doubts then he will go and meet BA.


Secondly, he will go and talk to BA in Business Language & not in Technical
Language.
Others:

1) Programmers or Developers:

They will simply write the code based on the System Architect's design and the roadmap
planned for them. Will follow up with the Team Lead or System Architect daily.

If they have any doubts then they will connect with BA for general or business-related
doubts and will connect to System Architecture or Team Lead for Technical Doubts.
