Notes

Molly and Accounting Update
- Feedback from Binny - what GK built has many of the same features that Krishnan was planning to work on.
MifosX
- Incorporating some feedback on individual lending prototype from Henrik at Creocore
- Uploading that with next drop of demo
- Properly implementing back-end via RESTful/JSON API
- Security is a different approach to what Udai is taking on Mifos
- How does this sync up with ongoing development on Mifos 2.2?
- Some overlap on the REST API
- Once implemented on either side and look at similarities and come up with service interface that is common between two of them.
- Udai
- Find a common ground to
Mifos 2.2.x
* http://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOS/fixforversion/10730
- Aim to release by middle of October (only about 10 issues open - related to reports - don't need to be fixed for this release)
- Couple issues to make decisions about - interest changes between 2.1 and 2.2 releases (waiting for feedback from Emily)
- New features - editing center name and customer DOB
- Photos
- Lukasz closed about 30 or 40 tickets.
REST API
* http://mifosforge.jira.com/wiki/display/MIFOS/How+To+-+REST+API
- Code is finished for 2.2.1 release - waiting for feedback from other parties.
Update from Udai (Post 2.2.1)
- Localization Issue - depending on testing and comfort that we have with it
- Now: when add locale need to add tables in mifos to accept that locale
- With new feature, just need to commit TWN properties file, and as long as it's avaliable in config properties file, it will work out of box.
- Mobile Collection Sheet
- After this release - focus on this and some offline capabilities in Mifos
- Create an offline collection sheet based on REST APIs - enough capability to provide syncing capability and usable with mobile interface.
- SMS - Michael and Binny are discussing.
- HTML5 capable app -
- Simple android app
- Udai has reviewed code - limited to group lending but could be usable
- Would need to integrate with mobile interface and a server. Has data stored in .csv
- Good piece of code but can't be used out of box.
Molly Accounting Module
- Financial transaction management should be able to be supported from portfolio
- MIS focus on operations and transactions - accounting can take place completely independent of it.
- As capture transaction - keep simple yet flexible format to communicate info about transactions taking place to another application or another part of application where accountant can decide for how to account for each of these different transactions.
- Udai: what about support of multi-dimensional chart of accounts?
- EOD statements - payment in terms of product, branch, etc.
- Mifos just has a single hierarchy.
