Kay,
This sounds fine to me. I think that Gayl had expressed similar
feedback around that state adding extra work.
Are there any use cases where MFIs need this workflow where this is some
probationary period or some initial saving requirement that must be
collected before they would formally "open up the savings account"

Hi everyone,
We will do this in Release G. Does anyone see any issues with Loans
ALWAYS having a Pending Approval state, and removing the Savings Pending
Approval state.

Here is a new proposal for these process flow states - please give a
shout now if there are any issues we see with this.
* ProcessFlow.ClientPendingApprovalStateEnabled - keep this
property
* ProcessFlow.GroupPendingApprovalStateEnabled - keep this
property
* ProcessFlow.LoanPendingApprovalStateEnabled - remove this, and
default to always on - IE, loans will always require approval step
* ProcessFlow.SavingsPendingApprovalStateEnabled - remove this,
and default to false - savings will not have a pending approval state
anymore

I'm not sure about the testing status, but we did deprecate the Disburse
to a Loan Officer, so that one was no longer relevant.
The only issue I've been aware of was an initial setup/configuration if
you set the Group Approval off, but it was fixed with a simple database
change. Although, I couldn't find a bug on it, so maybe Sam provided a
patch (he ran into it with the al Majmoua Deployment).

At a minimum, though-seems like we can deprecate Approval process for
savings accounts, right?
The reason we want to deprecate this functionality is that it adds a
significant amount of overhead to testing-and just general complexity of
the product.
Also-aren't there currently features around this that are currently
unstable/untested-and that we recommend people don't use? Those seem
appropriate for removal. J

Ok... spoke too soon, it seems that the process flow states are being
used... J
I'll send a sep email about deprecating Checklists.

If we're looking to deprecate something, I vote for Checklists! Useless
feature.

Hi,
Why are we getting rid of these? I know of a few cases where this
functionality is used.
Savings accounts - often turned off as they don't require approvals
Group Approvals - Turned off as well for some orgs
Client and Loan are less common I think, but sometimes as the MFI's
processes handle the approvals in a manual system so having the ability
to turn off the pending approval allows for streamlining the data entry
process.

Hi all,
We would like to deprecate the Process Flow States in Mifos
configuration in Elsie F, and leave them at the default states.
http://mifos.org/documentation/configuration#process
They include
* ProcessFlow.ClientPendingApprovalStateEnabled
* ProcessFlow.GroupPendingApprovalStateEnabled
* ProcessFlow.LoanPendingApprovalStateEnabled
* ProcessFlow.SavingsPendingApprovalStateEnabled
These will be removed, and by default will always be enabled in Mifos.
Let us know if there are any issues or concerns around this.
Kay
