4th,July - call with Roger

Whew!! Today's call with Roger was really awesome!!
Roger, is like the coolest person I've ever worked with, seriously, how many people work on a national holiday? Let alone the work you 'have' to do, Roger sat through his whole holiday morning with me to help me out in making me familiar with what i have to be doing and all the modules that are involved in this.

Before the call i was struggling to run a report through SDMX-HD module and now after the call i have a clear idea of how to integrate different modules to meet our module's precise requirements. This was possible after Roger sat with me for 4 hours straight!.

This week i was working on working on functionality of SDMX-HD integration module and amrs report module, by even going through the code. And was referring to documentation on both and on sdmx separately. Then i included a simple cohort service queries in our module. To test if i could import the reporting service api and use it.

I had a few questions and doubts regarding the SDMX-HD module, and Sent a mail to Roger an hour before the call.
This call involved Roger walking me through what must be done for running a basic use case for sdmx-hd , reporting module and the classes , and where the data is stored how am i to retrieve it.
First Roger, went through the trouble of solving all the errors by understanding every problem. so that the sdmx module could run. After that we had a problem in logging into the openmrs server because of the scheduler. Roger applied such simple solution to go to the database and update with our needed values and where i couldn't retrieve the password, he made me write a security question and answer, So , people who might get stuck by not knowing the password, this would be a 2 minute solution. :-) Then roger made me walk through several links from admin page where i would be integrating, he made me familiarized with what i need to be knowing.

Task for the following week, Work on different reporting techniques, and see which one of them would be the best performance oriented solution.

Saludos:-)
