Re: [Mifos-users] Task: Ship Mifos X with a default chart of accounts (and perhaps small set of dummy data)

2014-03-26 Thread Vishwas Babu
Hi Nayan,

I don't think we should make these a part of flyway updates (as we probably
shouldn't insert any dummy/sample data by default).

A couple of suggested approaches

1) Maintain a separate folder under
https://github.com/openMF/mifosx/tree/develop/mifosng-db, say sample data
and maintain the insert scripts here.

So folks wanting to see dummy data can restore the same manually into their
database (however, we would need to ensure that this insert script is kept
upto date with every new release which might be a bit of an overhead)

2) Define the Sample data  and have Subramanya create a Selenium script to
populate this data. So before every release he would run the selenium
scripts, take a dump of this database with the sample data and we ship it
along with the release artifacts

Let me know what you think

Regards,
Vishwas

 HI Ed,

 Attached are the scripts to add default CoA and adding test tenant with
 default data.

 @Vishwas,
 How do we proceed on adding these to the product by default? CoA script
 can be directly added but default test tenant I am not sure what is the
 best way to add.

 @Dayna,
 Sorry, I did not update the demo2 with default data. I will do it

 Nayan,



 Great idea. All MFIs need a test instance before/after they go live.
 And this will be an easy way for them to do their tests/training etc.



 Here is what I would suggest to include as part of the sample data:



 Office

 Staff (user ID)

 Loan Officers

 Clients (with meaningful names)

 Head Office

 Adam A (adama)

 Aliya A

 1 client

 Manila

 Ben B (benb)

 Mary M

 2 centers

 1 center having 2 groups

 2 groups having 3 clients each

 Pasay

 Jane J (janej)

 John K

 No clients



 Some relevant configurations

 a)  loan purposes - Tailoring Shop, Small Provisions Store,
 Agriculture, Cattle Rearing, Others

 b)  Client Closure Reason - Blacklisted, Deceased, Transferred,
 Left, Others

 c)   Customer Identifiers - Passport ID, Driving License, Ration
 Card, Government ID, Voter ID

 d)  Gender - Male, Female



 1 source of funds - Loan from Central Bank



 Products

 1 Loan product - Income Generating Loan

 1 savings product - Voluntary savings

 1 Fee - Processing Fee

 (These are to be mapped to the account heads)



 No need to create any loans/savings accounts as they would quickly
 become overdue as time goes by.

 I looked into attached CoA, for me it looks complete set of CoA for
 anybody to start.

 For sample data, I am thinking if we can add one more tenant by default
 and this will have sample data and MFIs can always use this tenant for
 training, experimenting on new configuration or to test new loan/saving

Re: [Mifos-users] Task: Ship Mifos X with a default chart of accounts (and perhaps small set of dummy data)

2014-02-25 Thread Gurpreet Luthra
+1 to having the ability to load sample data in MifosX. Very useful.

In OpenMRS, when it starts for the first time, it asks the question on
the web console if you would like to load demo data.

 Hey guys,

 As we're working on product documentation and initial customer onboarding,
 this would be a component that would speed up initial set up.

 Binny - I know we were looking at doing this for one of the releases this
 quarter - could this be an introductory task that we could have a volunteer
 take on (we're in need of small tasks as the GSoC students start to
 bond). Is it as simple as having this MySQL command at
 https://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOSX-592 be part of the initial
 population of the database.

 Perhaps if we didn't do this in the general war release but only on cloud
 images or at least on images we deploy for sandbox environments and the
 image we have on Microsoft VM Depot.

 Taking it one step further, a nice place to get to initially would be
 having the sandbox environment be deployed with a small base set of dummy
 data - a few clients, group, centers, offices, products.

 Do we have such a small set of test data that we could deploy with? If we
 didn't ship it in the war or a cloud image, perhaps we could simply make
 the test data set available and make documentation simple on how to load
 that test database.

2014-02-25 Thread Nayan Ambali
Ed and Gurpreet,

I was thinking exactly the same :)

@Ed, I feel it is better include Chart Of Account in the product (in the
war) and let user edit/modify later based on the institute's requirements.

Only sample data should be externalized (but package with release) and as
Gurpreet said user can load it on demand. It is *not just* for
documentation, the main purpose is it reduces the learning curve for first
time users.

Do you remember what Karl Oskar Teien said about not able create
loan because there were no products.
I see this very important step and we should come-up with minimum data set
but mean time cover all the use cases.


Thanks
Nayan Ambali
