> After working in the Data Warehouse / Pentaho Platform area for a few weeks 
> (using some standard reports as a basis for initial data warehouse 
> requirements) below is my proposal for a minimum Data warehouse scope that 
> moves DW a good step forward and implements key standard reports.  (Need Adam 
> F, Emily and Kay to get to grips with this).  I know the words are a bit 
> hurried but its better out than not, right?
> Timeframe 
> =========
> About 1 month till deployment needed.
> To do a basic but running version of 3 reports and the "ETL" (datawarehouse 
> work) to support them
> Reports:
> Loan officer detailed report
> MFI progress report
> Demand v Collection report
> The expectation is that the reports will run in initial testing on a 
> first-cut ETL created database already available (but not completely 
> accurate) within a few days.  The ETL infrastructure will be updated to make 
> the data accurate (taking into account changes to customer/LO/Branch 
> hierarchy and customer/loan status changes).  This will take 2 to 4 weeks and 
> will involve as much review and tests are possible.  Then when the data's 
> good enough we can move to deployment.
> The ETL will support more than these 3 reports but is a minimum of what the 3 
> reports need.  Did consider doing sizeable parts of the reports without DW 
> but felt (for me) it would not be useful (can always discuss why with 
> whomever wants).  It is, of course, possible to descope the reports so that 
> they don't need 'historic' data and/or make them less complex to code but I'm 
> suggesting we back the DW work in this time to see how we go.  There are 
> importants aspects of a DW implementation not in first scope... feel free to 
> bring them back in first scope but do move out dates accordingly... We kind 
> of need to see where we are with DW and, in a sense, needing some reports 
> quite soon forces the issue.
> In First Scope
> ==============
> Client and Account metrics for branches, products, loan officers
> Schedule and Transaction data for loans and savings (including arrears data)
> Mostly, I'm only bringing in data items which are needed by the reports and 
> reports like these.  This includes items such as accurate hierarchy history 
> and status history.  This scope actually covers much of typical mifos 
> reporting (beyond these 3 reports) but I found descoping further resulted in 
> commensurate effort in the report itself which seemed a waste.
> Not In First Scope
> ==================
> Financial data imports
> Every/Most production data items
> metadata
> localisation (language support)
> full automated testing
> Not saying that what's not covered in first scope is not important... it is.  
> But above is what's needed to get mifos feet under the datawarehousing table. 
>  I think automated testing,metadata and localisation will be essential... but 
> can happen after.
