Leah, That, too, is by design. I can understand how frustrating that is. :)
And actually, I don¹t think its the date that you created the office that matters but the dates that you created the clients. Is there anything stopping you from reseting the database back to the default and re-doing the configuration at an earlier date? How much data entry have you done? I would also ask how many clients you have and why you are choosing to enter in that historical data? Are those loans from back in September 2008 still active? If so, there may be another option that we¹re currently doing with a Mifos client here in the Philippines. With them, they are opening loan accounts based on the remaining balance of the loan. In fact, I have just created a worksheet that allows a person to enter in the balance and interest to be paid, along with the number of payments left and it will return an adjusted interest rate that you can enter to create a loan that matches the remainder. Currently it only works for loans that are flat rate, but I¹m sure it could be adapted to others. Ryan On 6/25/09 22:35, "Leah Morgan" <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks, Ryan.
