Enhanced Print for SPM and Child Welfare

The use-case… Extracting data, person, case, plans, notes, visits, relationship, evidence and related cases etc for the purpose of disclosure to first nations orgs, legal entities, point-in-time arching and more.

The feature… Something aligned to the way print works for outcome management, whereby a user can select print and receive a list of available areas to include. The system would then perform the print, likely in the background, and notify once a PDF has been generated. Perhaps the PDF could be assigned to a person or case as an attachment.

The abililty to have configuration or extension to this feature is key also. This would enable customers to use this feature as the base and include additional data items and configure some aspects of the PDF generated such as logos etc.

Customer Name Saskatchewan - Ministry of Social Services, Alberta ACS - Alberta Children's Services, Ontario - Minstry Children Youth Svcs, Workers' Compensation Board of British Columbia

    Hi Nick,

    We have reviewed your enhancement suggestion.

    Based on the information provided, our understanding of your request is as follows:

    • You are requesting product support for the retrieval of case and client data (e.g. plans, notes, visits, relationships, evidence, and related cases) so that caseworkers can select the data they wish to include in a printed document.

    The theme is aligned with our current strategy for our product to make data more accessible and we have accepted your suggestion as a consideration for a future release.

    Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas with us. We are committed to involving our users in building our product roadmap and appreciate your suggestions.

    Regards,
    Sheryl Brenton, SPM Product Management Team

    Comment on the name. Case Print is fine, but to be clear it would have to include personal data also, ie, the Personal Data Case (PDC).

    This would be a very useful feature for Child Welfare agencies who also need to prepare 'case packets', for example to share with courts as part of the related legal actions.

    Hi Nick,

    We have reviewed your enhancement suggestion and require more information to properly understand the issue and the business scenario you are trying to support.

    You referenced two customers on this request for enhancement. Can you provide us with the names of any customers that you are aware of that also currently have this requirement.

    Please provide the requested information within 30 days so we may proceed with our evaluation. If we do not hear from you within that timeframe, we will have to close the request due to insufficient information.

    This has been called "Case Print" where I have seen it before.
