# Phone Verification Field Fix

## Problem

The system was encountering an error when creating clients:

```
Unable to create client: (1364, "Field 'is_phone_verified' doesn't have a default value")
```

This error occurred because the database schema had a field called `is_phone_verified` in the `users` table, but the Django model (`CustomUser`) did not have this field defined, causing a mismatch between the database schema and the Django ORM.

## Solution

We implemented a two-part solution:

1. **Added missing fields to the Django model**:
   - Added `is_phone_verified = models.BooleanField(default=False)` to the `CustomUser` model
   - Added `is_email_verified = models.BooleanField(default=False)` to the `CustomUser` model

2. **Created a database fix script** (`fix_phone_verified_field.py`):
   - This script checks if the `is_phone_verified` field exists in the database
   - If not, it adds the field with a default value of `False` (0)

3. **Applied migrations as fake** (`fake_migrations.py`):
   - Since the fields already existed in the database but were missing from the Django model, we applied the migrations as fake to synchronize the model with the database schema

## Verification

We verified the fix by successfully creating a test user through the Django shell:

```python
from users.models import CustomUser
CustomUser.objects.create(username='testuser', phone_number='+254712345678', password='testpassword123')
```

The user was created successfully, confirming that the issue has been resolved.

## Files Modified

1. `users/models.py` - Added the missing fields to the `CustomUser` model
2. Created `fix_phone_verified_field.py` - Script to add the field to the database if missing
3. Created `fake_migrations.py` - Script to apply migrations as fake

## Future Recommendations

1. Always ensure that database schema changes are properly reflected in Django models
2. Use Django migrations for all database schema changes to maintain synchronization
3. Consider implementing a regular database schema validation check as part of your CI/CD pipeline
