Re: [Mifos-developer] Advice on charts for Apache Superset dashboard

[Ed C. <ed...@mi...>]

Adding back the mifos-developer list as that's the primary place where this
discussion should reside given these changes will be to the Mifos X Web-App
codebase but they do impact Fineract users.

Pushpendra,

Thanks for taking up this valuable and long-awaited task. It's been on the
roadmap to improve the dashboards, charts and visualizations in the UI that
system users (primarily management and operations) can see for quite some
time now.

Inzemamul,

Pushpendera will be using Apache Superset as the framework in which to
embed dashboards and other visualizations for operational and business
performance metrics related to the portfolio and financial services managed
by Fineract/Mifos. It would replace D3 which was being used on the
community app but isn't the best option going forward. Dashboards are
viewable from the homescreen when logging into the UI and we aim to provide
role-based dashboards which provide a relevant view for the various users
into the performance and metrics on the customers being served. i.e.
display of total loans outstanding, display of portfolio in arrears, total
funds collected for the day, etc.

See screenshot of current Dashboards:

See
https://docs.mifos.org/mifosx/user-manual/for-all-users/untitled/untitled
for current dashboard implementation.

Pushpendra was seeking input on what specific tables, graphs, charts,
dashboards, visualizations, managerial users would like to display on these
dashboards. So if any users has sample dashboards they could share, lists
of metrics and datapoints they would like to see covered, etc these will be
incorporated into the initial set of dashboards embedded via Apache
Superset.

You can reply to this thread or add comments on this ticket:
https://github.com/openMF/web-app/issues/1649

We will pull together the feedback into a wiki page.

A previous ticket has links to some of the sources of data for the previous
dashboard (unfortunately the mockup links are no longer active).
