THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
Goals
- Allowing Micro Finance Organizations to move from their excel based systems to Apache Fineract by importing their existing portfolio
Background and strategic fit
If any Micro Finance Institution wants to move to Apache Fineract platform, there is no way they can import their existing portfolio into the system. It will consume too much time if they need add their portfolio one by one. So there is a need to provide an option to import their existing portfolio in bulk by supporting different entity level API(s). Mifosx had an external tool, but it is becoming out of sync with platform frequently. So there is a request from community to redesign this tool and add as part of platform.
Assumptions
- User will download excel based templates and input the data into those excels and imports the data into Fineract platform
- Before importing Centers, Groups, Clients user needs to add Offices and Staff by using Fineract prototype app
- Before importing Loan portfolio user has to configure/add Currency details, Funds details, Charges, Loan Product configurations, Payment Types, Code and Code values
- Before importing SA/FDA/RDA, user has to configure SA/FDA/RDA products by using Fineract prototype app
