OpenSPP Program Entitlement Basic Cash Spent

OpenSPP Program Entitlement Basic Cash Spent

This document details the SPP Program Entitlement Basic Cash Spent module within the OpenSPP platform. This module extends the functionality of the g2p_programs module to specifically handle the tracking of cash spent for basic cash entitlement programs.

Purpose

The SPP Program Entitlement Basic Cash Spent module provides a straightforward mechanism for:

• Tracking Cash Spending: Allows program administrators to record the amount of cash spent by beneficiaries against their allocated entitlements.
• Calculating Remaining Balances: Automatically calculates the remaining balance for each entitlement based on the initial amount and the recorded spending.
• Monitoring Entitlement Utilization: Facilitates the monitoring of how beneficiaries are utilizing their allocated cash benefits.

Module Dependencies and Integration

1. G2P Registry: Base (g2p_registry_base): Inherits core registry functionality for managing beneficiary information.
2. g2p_programs:
   • Extends the Entitlement (g2p.entitlement) model to include cash spending tracking.
   • Leverages program and cycle structures for organizing and managing entitlements.

Additional Functionality

• Spent Amount Tracking: Introduces a new field, spent_amount, within the Entitlement (g2p.entitlement) model to record the amount of cash spent by the beneficiary.
• Automatic Balance Calculation: Automatically computes the remaining balance (balance) for each entitlement by subtracting the spent_amount from the initial_amount.
• Currency Support: Utilizes the existing currency_id field from the Entitlement model to ensure accurate tracking of spending in the appropriate currency.

Integration with Other Modules

This module seamlessly integrates with the g2p_programs module by directly extending the Entitlement model. This integration allows for:

• Centralized Entitlement Management: Cash spending information is directly associated with the corresponding entitlement record within the program cycle.
• Streamlined Reporting: Enables the generation of reports that combine entitlement data (initial amount, validity period) with spending information (spent amount, balance).
• Enhanced Monitoring and Evaluation: Provides program administrators with a comprehensive view of entitlement utilization, supporting better decision-making and program adjustments.

Conclusion

The SPP Program Entitlement Basic Cash Spent module offers a simple yet effective solution for tracking cash spending within basic cash entitlement programs. By extending the core functionality of the g2p_programs module, it ensures seamless integration and enhances the overall management and monitoring of program benefits.
