In conjunction with the Loan Performer desktop application, you can use the Loan Performer Web App starting with Version 8.17. and above. The Web App allows officers to enter new clients, deposits, withdrawals and loan applications, approvals, disbursements and repayments from the field. The menu items can be limited according to function as is the case with the desktop. It also has a couple of reports (Savers Statement, Savings Balances report, Loan Ledger Card, Outstanding Loans, Arrears, Portfolio at Risk, Ageing, Cash Transactions etc). The Web App can be accessed from any browser enabled device with a network connection to the Loan Performer database server and from a mobile phone. The network connection can be a LAN/WAN, VPN or Internet depending on how the web portal server is configured and the device can be a mobile phone, a tablet, a laptop or a computer.

Security
Security is of course a major concern. You would not want to expose your precious data to hackers. Apart from a SSL certificate for your website, we recommend you allow only certain devices to access your database. You can set this up in the Loan Performer desktop application and this way you can limit access to particular mobile phones, tablets, laptops or computers. And if a credit officer leaves the institution, you can disable access from his/her device. This can be managed by the microfinance institution.

LPF Web App Requirements
In case you want to offer this service to your clients, take note of the following:
- The Web App runs in addition to the Loan Performer desktop. The desktop has the configuration, the web app does not.
- The Web App and the Desktop work on the same database. For instance you can enter a loan with the Web App from the field and approved it at Head Office, then disburse it in the field in a matter of minutes.
- Both the files for the web app as well as the client's database are hosted on the client's website. Alternatively we can provide a cloud server for hosting purposes.
- The licensing for the Loan Performer web app is separate from the Loan Performer desktop licensing though they have the same expiry date.
