My notes: Upgrading CiviCRM v2.1 to CiviCRM v3.1

 

Recently we successfully upgraded one of our client CiviCRM install from v2.1 to v3.1.2. Over all I was pretty happy with the CiviCRM upgrade process considering client's db was in bad shape. This client is one of the early adopters of CiviCRM, ( since v1.8 ) that made things bit worse.

 

Few things you should remember before starting upgrade:

 

1. Backup your working CiviCRM database

 

Web Reporter Architecture

Web-Reporter is used to create Graphical repesentation of the data from the database. This is reporting tool which is useful for quickly and easily building interactive reports from data sources.

 

Web Reporter is developed using the Zend framework. It comprises of following important aspects.

 

Web Reporter - Part 1

Web reporter is a graphical development environment used to produce report populated by data from any database. It allows creation of simple reports through graph, charts and text report. Report can be easily created by any user within few minutes.

 

Every organization uses reporting in one form or another. As a result, reporting is considered an important operation that can allow you to predict your organization's results, if you are good in analysis. This is also called Business Intelligence(BI).

 

So what IS Business Intelligence?

Recently a client asked us if we could develop a BI application. Just to make sure that we were on the same page we checked if she would define for us what she meant by BI. She was very clear in what she wanted. What I was not sure of, was was it BI ? Or was it just a reporting application.

Optimized “Jasper Reports”

Feature: Graphical representation of the reports. 
“Jasper Report” is one of the options that we choose for the graphically displaying reports. Jasper report is implemented with the help of jrxml file which acts as an editor for designing graphical report.

The Birth of a Product

Most births are planned, or so the parents would have us believe, but we all know that most births are accidents. And this is probably true for all things, including software products. One of my favourite products, ScreenPen was born in a very normal fashion. By pure accident. And for the record, all of WA's products are one of my favourite products.

 

iView - Inventory, Vessel Performance, Reports & Analytics

iView is a vessel performance monitoring system. Its commercial module helps you to log the performance attributes of the vessels in your fleet. It also consists of a simple yet powerful inventory management module that guides you through the process of procurement of an item for your vessel.

 

digiORB certified by ABS !!!

Million dollar criminal fine, felony charges,.. I was quite surprised when I read through my search results for Oil Record Book violations. Filling up an Oil Record Book is surely a tough job. And the onus would be on you to fill it up consistently. without committing mistakes.

 

Now think of an application that can help you fill up your ORB by identifying entries to be made in your ORB, calculate values automatically and alert you with warnings when your ORB entries are inconsistent.. digiORB is your new saviour.
