Design Documents and Mockups

Workflow PPT (Apr. 8, 2013) - draft workflow for Mifos X.  Design includes a dashboard specific to each user, details to be fleshed out.  If you run the PPT doc in presentation mode, you can click the links showing proposed workflow. 

  • 4/8 - added pages at end for Collection Sheet Entry and Loan Approval

Workflow (PDF) (Apr. 8, 2013) - same document as PPT, except you won't be able to follow links.

Hi-Fidelity Mockups

  • (May 29, 2013) - added tabs to client pages for various loans, links to loan pages and loan approvals.  Note disabled "Approve Loan" on loan pending approval for user who cannot approve and notices that appear when it's clicked.
  • (May 28, 2013) - Clickable PDF (in progress). Click anywhere the "hand" icon appears.  Take a look at: Clients, Loans, Admin: Users, Search (click on All, Search - only works from Branch Mgr dashboard).  Mifos logo takes you back to top.  Caveat: this is a work in progress, these are ideas, not everything is linked up yet.
