Mifos 2.2 Testing
The community will soon be moving Mifos 2.2 from release candidate to production release status. MFIs or Specialists interested in upgrading to Mifos 2.2 and assisting with testing should post to the mifos users mailing list.
Mifos 2.2 contains significant new enhancements to the loans module. Mifos now allows clients to have loans with multiple frequencies (i.e. a client can have both a weekly and monthly loan). In addition the workflow and userface for Create Loan and Redo loans have been improved. Another nice enhancement is our customized text feature, on the fly you can swap out any label with new text (for example, you could switch “Clients” to “Members” throughout the entire user interface).
This release is stable and ready for production but included some new changes to the upgrade process – please ask for help on the mailing list if you need assistance upgrading.
