Standing Instructions For Loans Loan Installments
Hello Devs,
I am considering migration of sacco operations to Fineract 1.X.
I know it is possible to create loans whose installments date back to 2019
but is it possible to have installments settled using standing instructions?
Regards.
Wilfred

Wilfred,
As James pointed out if you did a search on Google, you should find the
user manual section on configuring standing instructions to repay loan
installments.
Did this topic answer your question?

Hi Wilfred -
That's great.
Hopefully you have read the FAQ which lays out what component is where?
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=91554327
I mention this because there are other open source projects, outside of
fineract, that are publishing UIs and native apps, so there are starting
points for you to look at. ICYMI.
The strategy of Fineract is to allow you to build your own front end
experience, based on the APIs, and to ask for your help in contributing
back core code - i.e. code that is needed in Fineract to support the use
cases in the various front ends that are out there. There are many active
discussions about the roadmap for Fineract.

Thanks for guidance James.
I am building a user interface to work with Fineract 1.X. I will try to
follow your instructions here.

Hi Wilfred -
Welcome to the list and the community. I've noticed you pointed out a
broken link (which I took out) and want to thank you for participating.
Can you tell us more about what you are working on?
On the standing instructions topic, and in general (and this is a reminder
for everyone on list), the way to proceed is to:
1. Do the Initial Research -
1. see if there is documentation on the wiki about this.
2. check out the listserv for discussion that may have happened [
https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@fineract.apache.org ]
3. check out the swagger documented API on the hosted fineract.dev
site (APIs map to available features)
2. If the feature of functionality is not present, then please:
1. spell out the requirements in some detail in an email
2. and open up a Jira Ticket with the requirements
3. and on the listserv, explain what you hope to change in the code
and how you'd like to add the feature
4. And get some discussion and AGREEMENT, or at least non objection
(on listserv)
3. Raise a Pull Request with your code changes including acceptance
tests, documentation, etc.
4. Work the process through to acceptance of your PR
If you are new to an open source project, it may be useful to hang out on
the list and read past posts for many weeks or months to get a feel for the
community, to work on an existing ticket that needs fixing, or to help with
a priority task that the community has already identified.
And yes, we probably NEED better documentation, including around the
existing Standing Instructions functionality on our wiki, and/or a deeper
dive into what is needed and what may be missing. Yes, it exists, and you
may find the documentation on the MifoX website gives you better info (the
Mifos project maintains the front end and contributed the core MifosX which
became Fineract1.x).
Thank you
