ERPNext V14 missing Loans module

[Shan_Ruan]

Hello friends.

Today is Jul 3rd 2023

My newest installment of V14 now doesn’t have Loans Management module. I was shocked because some of my other instances of ERPNext have Loans Management module and they work perfectly.

I have tried to reinstall Frappe and Erpnext but the Loans Management module is still missing.

Is it deprecated? Or is it a standalone app now? Any help please. Thank you so much!

UPDATE: Loans is now a standalone app with codename lending.

Hi @Shan_Ruan,

Loan Management Module is under the erpnext app for version 14.

Please check it.

Please also search in Module Def and check, whether the module is available or not.

If available then check the workspace of Loan Management is available or not.

Thank You!

Thanks bro I know what you are talking about. The latest erpnext update has removed Loan as a module. It is a standalone app now. You must install it like this:

bench get-app lending
bench install-app lending

Hi @Shan_Ruan,

I know, For Loan Management, develop branch and the upcoming version (Version-15) have separate installs. but you mentioned

@Shan_Ruan

My newest installment of V14

Then I will share the step according to version-14.

Thank You!
