Hi Aliya,
While writing test cases for Accounting Rules, it was noticed that the
ceiling is indeed 7 digits before a decimal. That is, if need be, a user
can reduce the ceiling of no. of digits before decimal by adding custom
config files. However, he cannot have more that 7 digits before decimal
even by altering the value in custom property files. It was duly tested in
our local build.
Hope this piece of information will help you. Kidly revert back if any
futher clarification is required.
Thanks & Best Regards,

AccountingRules questions

It's me again :)
This time I have questions about some of the accounting rules
configuration options in the default properties file.
I see two options that allow the user to configure the number of digits
before the decimal:
AccountingRules.DigitsBeforeDecimal=7
AccountingRules.DigitsBeforeDecimalForInterest=10
My understanding was that there is a ceiling on how many digits Mifos
will handle before the decimal. Are the above values the ceiling?
Would we ever expect a user to reduce the number of digits before the
decimal in a custom configuration setting? If they did, what would this
achieve?
I'm trying to understand this configuration setting both from the
perspective of a tester who needs to write test cases that exercise this
functionality, but also from the perspective of an MFI or Mifos
Specialist configuring Mifos. To me, it seems like this is unnecessary
configuration for a user to specify (and if that's the case, it should
not be in the file).
It would be great to have some clarification around the configuration
setting and how it affects the application (and it's benefit or use
cases from a customer perspective).
Thanks,
Aliya
