Skrooge in Kontact.

Wed Oct 21, 2009 3:22 am
Lateness is deviance. A financial manager in Kontact for organizing financials around one's busy Tuesday's is nice to help keep track of time wasting away into nothingness.

So I've checked and updated my bank balances to compare overdraft with overzealous coffee-mates and I'm asking again for vocational pay. Is my time worth nothing? Not being able to fix my Skrooge versus not being able to fix my schedule, or at least get my fix in chocolate. The only thing better than my Crispy Crunch is your overdraft bet and my vacational pay seen. Double and double plus one. :)

Could you please go into more detail, I am not exactly clear on what you are suggesting or why we would want it. Are you aware that the KDE financial applications are being ported to Akonadi like the KDE PIM applications?

I would guess he wants Skrooge available from within Kontact, and the reason for that is to link certain events in his schedule to certain categories in Skrooge to be able to verify time-based billing easily.

Not wanting to sound like an jerk, but I didn't understand a single word in the request... Maybe because I'm a non native english speaker ?

Anyway, can you please explain (in simple words, me is french ;) ) what kind of interactions you'd like to see between skrooge and kontact ? If it's limited to displaying skrooge into kontact, I'd say there is no added value compared to switching between apps.

We're not using akonadi in skrooge, and haven't investigated whether it could be useful for it.

I would suggest you rewrite this idea stating the exact problem and your proposed solution. If i read correctly I understood it as being integration between scrooge and kontact?

I think TheBlackCat is referring to a discussion of Kraft's and KMyMoney's developers with us (KDE PIM) about using Akonadi for sharing some information, e.g. invoice due dates.

I somehow thought skrooge was involved in that as well. My apologies.
