💡 Tips & Best Practices

For Report Generation

  • ✅ Use PDF for distribution, XLSX for analysis, CSV for data export
  • ✅ Use monthly reports for billing, daily reports for operations
  • ✅ Use granular reports only for troubleshooting (high data volume)
  • ✅ Leverage shift-based reporting for operational alignment

For Performance

  • 🚀 Use specific date ranges to reduce processing time
  • 🚀 Generate reports during off-peak hours
  • 🚀 Cache frequently accessed reports
  • 🚀 Use CSV format for large datasets

For Security

  • 🔒 Never commit secrets to version control
  • 🔒 Use Azure Key Vault for all secrets
  • 🔒 Rotate JWT tokens regularly (4-hour lifetime)
  • 🔒 Enable IP whitelisting for production

For Development

  • 🛠️ Follow the layered architecture pattern
  • 🛠️ Write unit tests for new services
  • 🛠️ Use type hints for better code quality
  • 🛠️ Log all errors with context
