The openIMIS Service Desk gives you a first structured access to openIMIS resources through a very easy user interface. Here you can
Share your Thoughts!
In the openIMIS Service Desk you can get qualified advice from a member of the openIMIS Product Group within a reasonable timeframe. Generally it's a good idea to post any question or suggestion through a formal request as this is easier for us to follow it up.
Contribute your Ideas!
Do you have a good idea for a new feature or an urgent need to adapt an existing feature to the situation in your organisation? In the openIMIS Service Desk you can propose new features to a member of the openIMIS Product Group. Try to explain the background and the use case as precisely as possible in a formal feature request. You can even upload screenshots, drawings or concept papers.
Contribute Quality!
Nobody is perfect - neither is the openIMIS software. In the openIMIS Service Desk you can report bugs to a member of the openIMIS Product Group. Try to explain as precise as possible what you observed and how you got there in a bug report. Try to upload screenshots of the situation. Please do not post data from real people!
Contribute Code!
All our source code is stored in git hub repositories. If you feel that you have a more efficient way of doing things or you have some really nice feature to add, you might want to contribute directly to the code base of openIMIS. Create your own fork git hub repositories and send a pull request to the Developers Committee.
Contribute Documentation!
The official openIMIS documentation is released on readthedocs.io in sync with the openIMIS software releases. Documenting software is quite a lot of work. If you are into proof reading or technical writing, you might enjoy contributing directly to the documentation. Native speakers in all available languages are especially needed! Edit the source documents on github. Edit knowledge bits in the openIMIS knowledge Base.
Contribute Translations!
openIMIS can be customized to several languages without any change in the program code. This means that you can create an openIMIS version for your own country in a relatively short time. If there is already a version in your language, you are still invited to participate in proof reading and in the discussions of the best way to name health financing terminology in your language.
Check the wiki page about the Translation Management platform to see where you can contribute best.
Contribute Assistance!
In the openIMIS Service Desk, members of the openIMIS Product Group are on their guard to actively support the community with practical advice and trouble shooting. If you have a bit of experience with the openIMIS software - may it be as a user, implementer or developer, you are most welcome to help out in the front line support. Check out the issue queue and see where you can chip in (you need an Atlassian account for this).
