Malawi-Request

MJ added this because perhaps we can achieve the needs of Malawi with this gap feature.

THIS FEATURE IS NOT RELATED TO THIS GAP STORY - WE SHOULD MAKE THIS ANOTHER GAP FEATURE FOR CONSIDERATION

Current Features

Numer 1 and 2 from the user stories are currently available in OpenLMIS 3.x. Number 3 above is a separate interface.

OpenLMIS v3.x has the ability to define the messages as part of the build process in each service:

Requisition Service Example:

Requisition Strings

requisition.email.convertToOrder.subject=Requisition converted to order
requisition.email.convertToOrder.content=Dear {0} {1},\n\nThe Requisition for Program {2} \
  and Period {3} has been converted to order.
requisition.email.statusUpdate.subject=Requisition Status Update
requisition.email.statusUpdate.content=Dear ${initiator}:\nThis email is informing you that \
  the ${requisitionType} requisition submitted on ${submittedDate} for the Period ${periodName} \
  and ${programName} at ${facilityName} has been ${requisitionStatus} by ${author} \
  on ${changeDate}.\nPlease login to see the requisition.\n${requisitionUrl}\nThank you.
requisition.email.actionRequired.subject=Action Required
requisition.email.actionRequired.content=Dear ${approver}:\nThis email is informing you that \
  the ${requisitionType} requisition submitted on ${submittedDate} for the Period ${periodName} \
  and ${programName} at ${facilityName} is ready for review. Please login to review the requisition.\
  \n${requisitionUrl}\nThank you.
requisition.email.requisitionApproved.subject=Action Required
requisition.email.requisitionApproved.content=Dear ${user}:\nThis email is informing you that the \
  ${requisitionType} requisition approved on ${finalApprovalDate} for the Period ${period} \
  and ${program} at ${facility} is ready to be converted to an order. Please login to convert \
  the requisition to an order.\n${url}\nThank you.

These messages are also available to be translated using Transifex into the local language.

Notes from Gap Estimation 4/11/2018

Attendees: Matt Berg, Josh Zamor, Ashraf Islam, Craig Appl
OpenLMIS tends to be implemented at the country level
We could, in theory use Transifex to manage
Today, there's no configurability of messages inside the application while it's running.
If we want to have admin screens to be able to save these messages, each service needs to have storage and some admin screen to be able to change those values.
- 4 services need a way to store their messages and update them
We need to define a set of choices that are available as database fields
