Hi Nazir,
Thanks for sending this email. I would also be very interested in
documentation related to
:
"As a first step for this part of ENDA-Mifos Data Migration project, we had
begun by:
1. Global analysis between the main entities of Mifos data model and ENDAs
current system data model.
2. A detailed analysis of the data to import, related to the customer
entity(either client or group).
For each step we have specified the different columns to fill with the
imported data and their respective tables. For several data imports, a
conversion function has been specified too."
Please let me know when the documents are avialable.
Thanks
Soham

Subject: [Mifos-developer] ENDA -- Mifos deployment project : Data
migrationphase start
Hi community,
-- First of all, apologizes in advance for the length of this email. :-) --
As you know, we are participating actively on deploying Mifos at the MFI
ENDA. During the last period, we have been working adding new features into
Mifos to support ENDA's requirements.
[Here, some Background for the rest of community]
Increased Support for Mifos project built by OXIA:
Ability to add group membership to individual clients - Complete
Ability to remove group membership Complete
Ability to define Limiting product combination
Ability to adjust multiple loan repayments Complete
Ability to disburse loans on non-meeting days - Complete
Ability to schedule repayments on non-meeting days Complete
Electronic publishing Complete
Receipt and voucher printing from account pages Complete
Loan schedule independent of meeting schedule Complete
Group loan with individual monitoring Complete
Cash management/accounting interface Complete
Reporting Module (In-Progress: Remaining reports to be developed: four
reports).
Localizing Mifos into French (In-Progress)
On this level of the project, feature added were almost finished. Thus, we
have planned to start working next week on ENDA data migration from its
current system into Mifos.
(We will also be working on the wiki side to specify how to we are
preceding: detailed work-plan).
Since the information would be helpful for the entire community. I thought
it best to share how we can proceed to Data Migration on the mailing list.
As a first step for this part of ENDA-Mifos Data Migration project, we had
begun by:
1. Global analysis between the main entities of Mifos data model and ENDAs
current system data model.
2. A detailed analysis of the data to import, related to the customer
entity(either client or group).
For each step we have specified the different columns to fill with the
imported data and their respective tables. For several data imports, a
conversion function has been specified too.
The next stage will cover those steps:
1. Data extraction from ENDA actual system
2. Data mapping analysis (between the old system and Mifos)
3. Analysis of the quality of data to correct or to complete
4. Development of tools of manual cleaning of data
5. Development of tools of automatic cleaning of data
6. Automatic data cleaning
7. Manual data cleaning
8. Data cleaning validation
9. Data transformation and transfer preparation using Kettle 2.5.0
10.Data transformation and transfer execution
11.Data migration validation
12.Iteration of the steps 2 to 11 until transfer is validated (20% of
total effort)
13.Data migration phase ended
The recommend approach provided by Emily (and which will be used) was to:
Once our analysis is complete and we are ready to start building and testing
the migration scripts, we should pick a version (ideally the most recent
version) of Mifos against which to build our migration scripts. And going
forward, as we test our scripts, instead of migrating data into newer
versions of Mifos (which might have db changes)-- we should always migrate
into the original version we targeted. Finally, we can then use the upgrade
scripts to upgrade the data into the current version.
Thus, we will need to wait until the configuration work is completed before
picking a version to build scripts against (that should wrap up in the next
2 weeks or so). That way, we can configure Mifos and then start migrating.
Finally, we will publish every day the progress report of the Data
Migrations project.
Please comment if you need more detail or need further details.
With Regards,
