>
>
> To ease data entry load and improve data integrity, Nuru International has a 
> need to import an excel spreadsheet file into Mifos capturing basic details 
> of the transaction (date, receipt id, etc.)
> Not sure if this could easily be met by extending the business logic of 
> existing plugins and APIs.
> Below is the background and need and attached are the full requirements and 
> details of the spreadsheet to be imported:
> Background and Need:
> Nuru issues a receipt with a unique serial number for every financial 
> transaction. Physical receipts are an important part of Nuru's cash control 
> process, since many cash transactions take place in informal rural locations. 
> Carbon copies of all receipts, along with cash from transactions, are 
> delivered daily to the Nuru office by field officers. A cashier reconciles 
> the receipts summary with cash received, and an office clerk enters data from 
> receipts into a daily transaction journal in Excel. This Excel journal is 
> then reviewed by a manager before posting daily transactions to Mifos MIS. 
> Initially, Mifos MIS was intended to replace the process of recording 
> transactions in the Excel journal. The detailed transactions report generated 
> in the BI reporting suite would then be used by managers to review daily 
> activity. However, adoption of this new process has proved challenging. 
> Office staff reports that QA and data manipulation is much easier in an Excel 
> format. Although we are continuing to focus staff training on the use and 
> value of incorporating MIS technology into our information system processes, 
> a transaction import function would greatly help adoption and utility of 
> Mifos MIS in Nuru operations.
