-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi MIFOS community,
My name is Ghislain Hachey, I'm the Technical Manager for a small private business in the South Pacific (Vanuatu). A government department recently came to us for advice on setting up a MIS for their new micro-finance scheme. I fell on MIFOS and here I am. If this goes well, we are seriously thinking of becoming a "MIFOS Specialist" in the region. I have installed, configured and started using MIFOS, and of course, now we are hitting bumps on the road. Some problems we have resolved by changing our own workflow to match more closely that offered by MIFOS, others are still major obstacles. I have a few questions for you more knowledgeable MIFOS users. 1) I am trying to understand how to customize my chart of accounts (mifosChartOfAccounts.custom.xml) and then properly map transactions (mifosBeanConfig.custom.xml.) I stayed as close as possible to the sample custom one in your doc to start with (and attached them both to this e-mail.) Now, I just can't figure out how I can post some transactions (PRINCIPALPOSTING,INTERESTPOSTING,FEEPOSTING...) to different bank accounts (Bank Account 1, Bank Account 2...) How does MIFOS know a particular instance of a, say PRINCIPALPOSTING, belongs to Bank account 1 or Bank Account 2. Would I simply add extra lines in the mapping customization file (like follows for all my bank account for example?) <entry key="PRINCIPALPOSTING" value="11201"/> <entry key="PRINCIPALPOSTING" value="11202"/> <entry key="PRINCIPALPOSTING" value="11203"/> <entry key="PRINCIPALPOSTING" value="11204"/> <entry key="PRINCIPALPOSTING" value="11205"/> All with the value of PRINCIPALPOSTING? And, then MIFOS would know which one from the web interface configuration? That would be fantastic :) 2) I have enabled the configuration repaymentSchedulesIndependentOfMeetingIsEnabled because having those constraints of tightly coupling meeting schedules to payments would be a nightmare in this country and would practically never work. Now, my understanding of this was that it would de-couple the meeting schedule from the payments *completely*. It seems it does not (for our purposes anyway.) I can successfully make payments, disbursals, adjustments, etc. freely and independently from the client's schedule which is great and what we *need*. However, the loan product(s) a particular client has to its disposition (in the drop down list when creating a new loan instance) *is* tied to the meeting schedule of the client. In other words, the client is tied to using a loan product with the same repayment schedule. What if we want to offer a client a loan product which has a monthly repayment schedule, and then subsequently, offer the same client a loan product which has a weekly repayment schedule? This will happen. Your help here would be greatly appreciated.
