Hi Ryan I can see the savings listed in the Enter Collection Sheet Data link but not in the Reports section Collection Sheet Report on the demo server - I am getting a blank page there but in the PDF example I got from Ed it does not list the savings details. My issue is that if a cashier is using Mifos and looking at the savings account they would not know easily if it is up to date or in arrears, unlike the loan account - separate from the status it does not show missed deposits or # of days in arrears. Are savings not seen to be that important in mifos from a collateral perspective? What is the intention with the max withdrawal field as it is not having any impact i.e. it does not prevent higher withdrawals?
