If you are a medium or large organization and use a payment processor with CiviCRM, and especially if your reporting needs are complex (e.g. political parties that need to report income rather carefully), then you will have run into the challenge of reconciling payment processor income in CiviCRM against your bookkeeping system and/or your bank account. 

Few months back I joined the civiCRM developers community as a Google Summer of Code intern with the objective of improving in my coding skills by making a significant contribution to open source software. It's gone quite well so far. With the help of my mentor and other CiviCRM community members I have successfully completed phase 1 and 2 of the program.

This blog post is a summary of what I have been able to achieve from the time coding began till July 09, 2018.

Configurable contact summary layouts are coming soon. Help make it happen!

Last year at #17NTC, I met a consultant who reminded me of the dreaded phone call, “Hey, a colleague referred me to you and I want to get a quote for moving to CiviCRM.” Those phone calls are often challenging, as the client hasn’t done much in the way of organizing their needs and helping us help them.

Dear all, Just wanted to share with you the upcoming releases (November) for our product Portfolio: - AlineaSol Blue Theme will be officially commercialised Up and till now we only exposed this to our current customers but we will be marketing this as General Available. We are planning only an Enterprise version for this, but we think the price is appealing! It gives Sugar CE a much more professional look. - AlineaSol WFM (both enterprise and community) We have now a full graphical editor under Beta. This will definitely help in the creation of new flows. We have also started working on libraries to add more off-the-shelve functions. We will be opening also this mechanism to third parties so that you can define/share your own libraries. Library support will though not be available in November (early releases in December/January) - AlineaSol Reports We have been adding a considerable number of new features. Just to mention a few: possibility to support cascaded joins (you can now connect more modules within one report); support for inner and outer joins; inheritance of filters within SQL; support for clean CSV (to facilitate Excel processing), export to .xls format... This will be all available in November. We are starting to work now on more complex report presentations, picking up data from multiple reports and presenting this in one-go. You can expect early releases of this in January. - AlineaSol Projects We are looking now into supporting additional fields as part of the GANTT so that you can adapt this to your needs. Not sure if this will be November or a December delivery. There are some additional projects that we are just starting, but more about those iin a later update. In any case, we will be sharing soon a demo site so that you can test this all out (already available to our enterprise customers) Enjoy! @AlineaSol
