A couple of blog entries back (http://civicrm.org/blogs/mbriney/contacts-erd-v31 to be precise) Matt Briney was kind enough to share the contacts ERD with us! I promised to put some more on. The entire CiviCRM ERD is too big and complex to be useful in this format, but I have just created one for the location point of view.

By ErikHommel Filed under MeetupsLast Friday I we had a BeNeLux CiviCRM meetup in Vianen, with 21 attendants from all three countries (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxemburg). Lobo was present too as he was in the neighborhood (Paris?) anyway.
It was a very inspiring sessions, that got off with a good introduction. We split up in different parallel sessions, where Lobo did a general introduction, Erik Brouwer did a session on localization and I discussed my showcase of synchronizing data between CiviCRM and an Oracle application at De Goede Woning.

By ErikHommel Filed under MeetupsIt's 19.50, I'm in the train from Brussels to home, on my way back from the CiviCRM developer camp. Erik Brouwer has just left the train, Eagles on the headphone and there's a multicolored display of non-identifiable ligths thru the window.....just another 90 minutes and I will be on the couch with a glass of red, cats purring on my lap and telling Floor all about the two days. So what was it like, this developer camp?

By ErikHommel Filed under CiviCRMThe Dutch housing corporation De Goede Woning did a prototype with CiviCRM in the last quearter of 2009. At the end of the prototype the project group wrote a recommendation to the Management Team:
take the basic decision to start using CiviCRM as their CRM make a project plan to start using CiviCRM in the sales and customer service part of the organisation to develop links to/from their main transaction system and their document management systemJanuary 18, 2010

By ErikHommel Filed under CiviCRMWe had an interesting example today at De Goede Woning. The case was brought up by one of the teammanagers that visited the project group this week to see where we were and what we were doing.

By ErikHommel Filed under CiviCRMWe started a project with a Dutch Housing Corporation called 'De Goede Woning' 2 months ago. They use CiviCRM to get a grip on their requirements towards a CRM-package. It is very possible that they will use CiviCRM after the project, but the objective is to understand what CRM means and what is needed for their specific situation. We use bog-standard CiviCRM (version 3.02 on Drupal 6.14 with the Dutch translation) with CiviCase. If you want to know more about the project, let me know! I love telling stories about our projects :-)
