Hi Binny,

Thank you for your reply, it all looks very promissing from my point of 
view:) 

I was under the impression that savings was in beta (and of course I can't 
find the link now:) ). Anyway It's good to see everything's there. As susch 
we don't need savings, but I guess that account-type fits debit/giftcards 
best. We have no interest calcualtions on those 2 card-types, just deposits 
and withdrawals.

https://mifosforge.jira.com/wiki/display/MIFOSX/The+Basic+Design descripes 
you have designed Mifos as multi-tenanted which of course is good. I just 
need some clarification, is it possible to have multi-tenants in the same 
database shema or do they each need their own schema? At the moment we have 
25+ costumers/institutions running, and if they each need their own schema, 
I think it would require some more admin work:)

Regarding the database, are you using stored procedures / triggers or 
anything similar? Again I'm thinking of how difficult it would be to port 
from mysql

Thank you all for your kind and quick replies
