An Example Data Migration

Analysis of MFI and their source data

MFI has ~100 offices (~70 are branchs) and wishes to migrate 5 of these branchs to mifos.

MFI has x amount of personnel, y of which are loan officers, z of which are other staff, such as data-entry, manager etc

MFI has 1 Loan Product (a individual loan applicable to clients, 1-24 installments, weekly installments)

No Centers as such.

Number of groups per branch?

Number of clients per group?

Group with many clients

Clients with individual loans and savings accounts

Custom Fields for client information

Decision is taken to manually enter Personnel, Offices, Reference Data (Loan Purposes),

Decision is taken to use an 'opening balance' approach. Basically for a specific branch and field-officer, if that field-officer is meeting with a praticular group on say Monday. Once the day is over, a spreadsheet with all the details of the loan for each client member of group is captured and the following details are tracked:

Original Loan Amount
no of installments
Disbursement Date
First Installment Date
Current Installment Date
Amount Paid to Date (Principla + Interest)
Loan Cycle
Loan Purpose

extraction, transformation and loading of data

This information is then extracted from template spreadsheet and (possibly transformed in some way) and loaded into mifos.

At this point this group is considered to be on mifos and from now on they should be using mifos application

Pros

Consolidation? ask ryan again?

Cons

Past history of loans is not captured.

Steps to getting setup

Create base schema with base data

From a blank mifos schema:

apply base-schema.sql
apply base-data.sql
update 'admin' users password to 'testmifos'

update personnel set password=0x22648ca42330a561964dbe32f54e6a04a49d03f203ca64b2515338d9 where personnel_id=1;

Use custom configuration files

After doing analysis on the mfi, it may be possible to put together application configuration files:

edit applicationConfiguration.custom.properties and place in configuration directory e.g. MIFOS_CONF
create mifosBeanConfig.custom.xml (think this must go in application server classpath (lib folder for instance))
create mifosChartOfAccounts.custom.xml and place in configuration directory e.g. MIFOS_CONF

Launch Application

At this point you should be able to start mifos application against mifos schema. As a result the database at present has the following information:

Latest database structure (tables, relationships, constrainst etc)
Reference Data that comes out of box and must exist for mifos to startup
Persistence of some configuration from applicationConfiguration.custom.properties which now cannot be changed.

Reference Data

Executing the following query will show you the existing reference data

SELECT l.lookup_id, le.entity_name, l.lookup_name, le.description
FROM lookup_value l
INNER JOIN lookup_entity le
ON l.entity_id=le.entity_id
order by l.entity_id, l.lookup_id;

Seed Reference Data

Reference data populated by applying base-data.sql and which must exist for application to work.

Data Type	entity_id	Options
ClientStatus	1	Pending Approval, active, on hold, cancelled, closed
GroupStatus	2	Partial, Pending, active, on hold, cancelled, closed
AccountStates	5	partial, pending, approved, disbursed to LO, active-good-standing, active-bad-standing, closed-obligations-met, closed-written-off, closed-rescheduled, cancelled
PovertyStatus	10	poor, very poor, non poor
Gender	16	male, female
PersonnelLevels	30	loan officer, non loan officer
SpouseFather	52	spouse, father, mother, child
CustomerStatus	53	active, inactive
PersonnelStatus	56	active, inactive
Language	74	English, Spanish, French, etc
LivingStatus	92	Together, Not Together

Custom Reference Data

Reference data that is optional and typically different on a customer by customer basis

Data Type	entity_id	Options
Salutation	15	Mr., Mrs.
MaritalStatus	17	single, married, seperated, widow
Citizenship	18	Roman Catholic,Protestant Baptist Pentecostal,Born Again Christian,Seventh Day Adventist,Iglesia Ni Kristo,Jehovahs Witness,Latter Day Saints,Islam,Others
Ethinicity	19	Yes, No
EducationLevel	20	Elementary, High School, College, Vocational, None
BusinessActivities	21	BuyAndSell, Vending, SariSariStore, Retailing, Dressmaking, Garments, Handicrafts, FoodProcessing, SoapMaking, PerfumeMaking, DishwashingDetergentMaking, BeadsAccessoriesMaking, Tailoring, Upholstery, Vulcanizing, DoormatMaking, TricycleOperator
PersonnelTitles	29	Program Officer, Program Unit Supervisor, Branch Accountant, Branch Accountant Assistant, Branch Manager

NOTE: Citizenship is used to track religon
NOTE: Ethinicity is used to track ?

You should restart the application after inserting in custom reference data as lookup values are cached on start up.

Roles and Permissions

Relaunched application with all the reference data as shown above.
Manually created five roles (Branch Accountant, Branch Accountant Assistant, Branch Manager, Program Officer, Program Unit Supervisor)

Model Organisation

After ensuring configuration, reference data is setup correctly for application, its time to add organizational items that are central to how mifos application works.

Model Office Hierarchy and offices

There are ~100 offices of which ~70 are branches so there are other types of offices. An office hierarchy of Head Office -> Regional Office -> Area Office -> Branch Office is used (dropped divisional office)

Manually created the first 11 offices: Customer Head Office, Luzon, North Luzon, Central Luzon, Capas, NCR, NCR North, Tandang Sora, Bulacan, Meycauayan, Valenzuela of which 4 were branch offices Capas, Tandang Sora, Meycauayan, Valenzuela.

NOTE: Only created first 11 up as far as Valenzuela as I want to migrate data for this branch into mifos.

Model Personnel/Staff/Application Users

The first data to be migrated is for a specific branch-loan-officer-group so I manually create a Personnel as a loan officer and associate with Valenzuela branch.

Model Financial Products

There is one general loan product available so manually created loan product.
Didn't have much info on savings product so manually created volunatry savings product.

Migrate group information

Be Careful

Manually migrating group data cannot be done correctly without modifying the system date where the application is running or by somehow modifying the data directly on the database after the group has being created and activated.

Support Creation of Groups whoose activation date is in the past

Build flexibility into mifos services and API to allow groups to be created and activated with an activation date in the past.

Results of migrating group using API (taking into account activiation/mfiJoining date in past)

Meeting is created for every monday, weekly.

In customer table, entry for group has the following details of interest:

display name	trained	trained_date	created_date	created_by	mfijoining_date	customer_activation_date
VAL B-211	YES	30-11-2010	19-01-2011	1	06-Dec-2010	06-Dec-2010

In the customer schedule table, ten customer schedules are created starting from 06-Dec-2010 ending 14-Feb-2011.

Be Careful

At present, only ten customer schedules are created when customer is activated and each night a batch job checks to see if more should be added. If the activation date is further than 10 of meeting periods away from today then there won't be a customer schedule existing for a meeting that should occur today or in the future until a batch job runs after midnight. So we should also check to see if customer activation date is in past and if so, create customer schedules from that date up to todays date, and then also create the 10 extra customer schedules for future meeting dates.

Migrate client members of group information

Be Careful

Manually migrating client data cannot be done correctly without modifying the system date where the application is running or by somehow modifying the data directly on the database after the group has being created and activated.

Support Creation of Clients whoose activation date is in the past
