I would like to start off with Chamasoft in order to set up an actual digital savings group (SG) as a pilot project. I have been in microfinance since 1997 and stumbled on savings groups in 2005. I set up a SG project from scratch while working for an International NGO that grew to cover three East Africa countries and later introduced to two West African countries.
I left the organization after working for them for 12 years and have been an independent consultant in SG programme design and SAVIX MIS since September 2011.
I was looking into using Chamasoft to upload our Chama details for its last 11 years of existence, so as to have a one reference point for all our historical data….while still using it for 2022 and subsequent data. Is this possible under the current functionalities of the software?
