Outdoor.sy Demo

Description

This app is meant to let Outdoor.sy employees add data from uploaded files that have pipe or comma delimiters. The customers' data is shown in a table with the column names: Full Name, Email, Vehicle Name, Vehicle Type, Vehicle Length. The data can be sorted by: Full Name, Vehicle Type, or Vehicle Length. The data can also be filtered through for a specific customer by the customer's First name, Last name, or Vehicle Name. When searched by Vehicle Type, the customers that have the same Vehicle Type that matches the searched input will show on the table. An Outdoor.sy employee can create a new customer manually, delete any manually created customer as well as imported customer, import a list of customers via CSV file, and export a CSV file report of all the data shown on the customer's table. Whenever a new file is uploaded, the application will not add any duplicate information to the table.
