zOnnythomasboimah: right12:20
zOnnythomasboimah: if we migrate specific data we need instead of the whole 12:21
zOnnythomasboimah: that could work12:21

thomasboimahzOnny sorry I step away for some min14:32
thomasboimahzOnny are you still here?14:33
zOnnythomasboimah: yes14:34
zOnnylibreoffice isgiving a hard time to edit the pdf14:34
zOnnythomasboimah: Libreoffice doesn't make it easy to edit text boxes14:46
thomasboimahReally?14:47
thomasboimahBecause I do work with it smoothly14:47
zOnnythomasboimah: according to google "LibreOffice often fails to maintain the structure of fillable forms, frequently converting them into un-editable images or locked text shapes."14:48
zOnnythomasboimah: the pdf we include fillable forms14:49
zOnnythomasboimah: I cannot open the default textboxes that the pdf includes14:50
zOnnythomasboimah: libreoffice wants me to create new ones 14:50
zOnnythomasboimah: I think it was done with acrobat14:51
dcammue has quit (Quit: Quit)14:58
thomasboimah has left #novawebdev (None)15:15
thomasboimahzOnny, is the migration done now15:26
thomasboimah?15:26
zOnnythomasboimah: I'm testing it in local first15:27
thomasboimahokay15:27
zOnnythomasboimah: the organizational feature could mixup the invoices15:27
zOnnythomasboimah: I'm trying to optimize it for better usability15:28
zOnnythomasboimah: i don't like the way it is looking for now15:28
zOnnythomasboimah: it is a little bit easy for users to make mistakes15:28
zOnnythomasboimah: also limiting to two kind of users is not enough in this use case15:29
zOnnythomasboimah: if we want jetro and novaweb work with business tracker there has to be certain criteria of permissions and membership15:30
zOnnythomasboimah: we need to have user roles15:30
zOnnythomasboimah: users with different roles and permissions15:30
zOnnythomasboimah: not everyone should be a manager15:31
zOnnythomasboimah: there is also non-members users15:32
zOnnythomasboimah: it could be too soon to think about this 15:32
zOnnythomasboimah: but two organizations under the same business tracker is a broader view15:33
zOnnythomasboimah: things can get mixup easily if not considerations are taken15:34
zOnnythomasboimah: I hope we are in the same page15:34
thomasboimahsure15:34
zOnnythomasboimah: I'm working on that branch righ now15:35
zOnnythomasboimah: a branch more for novawebdev and jetro usability15:36
zOnnythomasboimah: due that this project is open for anyone to use it15:36
zOnnythomasboimah: I'm brainstorming in making it more into organizational scope15:37
zOnnythomasboimah: that's all15:37
jkollie has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)15:38
zOnnythomasboimah: not easy but I'm thinking what if dcamue is an Accountant and wants to see the partners and invoices only15:38
zOnnythomasboimah: easy UI can help the navation be easy for user to use it15:40
zOnnythomasboimah: it is mostly permissions, that's all15:40
zOnnysame as the LO 15:40
thomasboimahsure15:40
zOnnythomasboimah: that is why I want to migrate it once it is done15:42
zOnnythomasboimah: at least the roles and organizational membership15:42
