Hi Kay,

Thanks again for answers. My reactions are in line. Bart

Subject: Re: [Mifos-functional] Functional design
ofofflinecollectionsheet&collection sheet entry

 =


 [Bart de Rijk] What I need to know is what columns on fees, penalties,
A/C in the Collection Sheet are consistent with the A/C column in the
Collection Sheet Entry. For Collection Sheet Entry, you made clear that
we only need to capture the client/group-related fees & penalties within
the A/C field - NOT the loan- related fees/penalties as these are
covered by the collection amount. Is this also true for the Collection
Sheet itself; e.g. are the values in the fees, penalties columns in
Collection Sheet ONLY covering client/group-related fees & penalties, or
also covering fees and penalties for the loan product itself? If the
latter is true, then I'm afraid that loan officers will have a hard time
to calculate the client/group-specific part  of fees & penalties out of
the overall figures. Furthermore, it would be great to know what column,
or total of columns in Collection Sheet is the exact counterpart of the
A/C column in Collection Sheet Entry. =


[Kay Chau] The first is true, the fees and penalties are listed
separately.   I believe when this report is generated, all fees and
penalties due (whether it is fees due as part of a loan, or misc fees
due for the client) will be listed under "Other Collections" column and
will specify what the fee is for.  For example, if a client had a misc
fee due of 4.0 with their Standard Client Loan (SCL), the Other Coll
column will list SCL:4.0 in that client row.  Then, for the misc client
fee, it will list that separately in the same column.  So fees/penalties
due with the loan will have the loan short name, and the other fees due
just for the client will be listed separately.  Haven't fully tested
this so I will dig into this a little further =


[Bart de Rijk] Tx, please let me know your testing results. For
Collection Sheet Entry within Mifos Light, we then focus upon the
client/group-related fees and penalties, which can be derived from the
fees and penalties columns in Collection Sheet. Am I right to assume
that in Bulk Entry, we enter only one value per client regarding A/C -
e.g. an aggregation of all client/group related fees and penalties?
Hence, the guideline towards end users should be that they add up all
fees and collections which they've registrated in the Collection Sheet
under fees and collections (disregarding the Other Collections column as
this also lists loan-related fees which are irrelevant here) and assure
that value is in Collection Sheet Entry A/C field?

 =


Finally, one practical question: when allowing multiple products per row
in the collection sheet entry, is there any maximum of products? If
there is, what's the maximum; is this the same as a maximum number of
products defined in Mifos in the first place? If there isn't, any
suggestions how we should design for this - the screen would need to be
horizontally scrollable, for example?[Kay Chau]   I haven't tested this
myself but I don't believe there is a max - the collection sheet entry
will be able to scroll to the right as more products are there for each
client.  How many different loans does each client typically have at a
time for the MFI in your scenario?  =


[Bart de Rijk] I don't have data on the number of products per MFI or
per client. What I see in the Collection Sheet entry screen is that each
product will have its own column. So maybe customers have only three
products, but the MFI has a portfolio of 9 products, you'd see nine
columns and not three, if I'm right. Regarding Mifos Light, I'm afraid
we'll have to limit the number of loan product types per MFI within our
first release.

[Kay Chau] yes you're right - there would be 9 product columns
displayed, and so for the loan products that a client doesn't have, that
text box would not exist under those columns in that client row in the
collection sheet entry.  =


 [Bart de Rijk] Just learned that we've built it this way so no problem
here for Mifos Light.

Bart
