Introduction

Projects are for Referrals/Cases and interactions to be grouped together to enable reporting. Generally projects will be similar to the services provided. If an organisation offers an Information and Advice service (including advocacy support) they would possibly consider two projects; Information & Advice and Advocacy. From here the system would be able to report on the two projects together or separately.


Projects are also used with some of the Modules available:

  • Handypersons - Doing minor home adaptations
  • Roster - Care Provision, Befriending and other roster type service
  • Funded Work - Funding applications for major home adaptations, from Technical visit through to completion


Some services in an organisation my have sub services that they offer. Examples below:

  • Befriending - This could offer Telephone Befriending and Home Visiting
  • Counselling - Group based or individual sessions
  • Carer Support Services - Adult Carers, Young Adult Carers and Young Carers
  • Advice and Support - Help line and Casework

If there is a requirement to report on the subservices independently it may be considered to use a project for each sub service. Project design is very important and reporting is a major consideration. When reporting on a project this can be then split down into different aspects like gender, ethnic origin etc. If there is a need to analyse demographics and statistics based on the sub services that it would be recommended to use separate projects.


Projects are not just used for working with service users and can be useful in other areas of the organisation. You could have a project for use with:

  • Volunteer Recruitment
  • Training
  • Appraisals
  • Administration
  • Planning processes like fundraising, event management etc.

For a webinar on this, see here.


Apart from reporting, projects will enable you to use templates and workflows, with reminders for the users. When you open a new case or referral this would then be connected to a project. Any work undertaken will be recorded and reported under the associated project. You can also restrict users to which projects are available. Through this page you will see the available options to projects.


Project Setup

Menu Projectsetup.PNG


When you navigate to the Project Setup page you will be displayed the current active projects on the system with some summary information:

  • Name of the project
  • The funder of the project
  • Type of project - Will be blank for standard projects. If connected to a Module the module name will be displayed; Funded Work, Handyperson Scheme, IMCA Project or Roster Workers Schedules.
  • The number of referral/case based extension databases connected to the project.
  • The number of Ladder Outcomes connected to the project.
  • The start date of the project.
  • The end date of the project.
  • If the project is still active - If set to know the project will not be available to reports or Recording Contacts, project history will still be displayed on person/org records history page.

On the left hand side you can see options which will filter the results. You can filter by:

  • Active - clicking on this will reveal inactive projects
  • Type
  • Funder (if used)

Export Config.

This allows you to set up a project in another system such as a Replica Database and then copy it to your live system. This means you can test a project's configuration and functions to ensure you are happy with it, then import it directly into your live system.

Exportconfigproject.png

To download, click on Export Config, then click Download. This will create an Excel sheet which you can then save. There is no need to edit the Excel sheet. Ensure you do not edit the excel sheet in anyway.

You can then log into the system you wish to import the project, go to Project Set up and click on Import Project Config.

Importconfigproject.png


Clicking on Import using File will allow you to choose the Excel file you previously downloaded.

Importfileviewproject.png

You can then click Upload and it will import the project.

Creating/Editing Projects

To edit a project click on it's name or to add a new project click the 'Enter New Project' button. You will then be taken to the individual/new project page. If you want to copy the settings of another project select it in the drop down and click copy, on the prompt click cancel or okay.

You will need to enter/edit the details on each section.

All settings are explained below. but this webinar provides an overview of how to set up a typical project.

General options

Generaldetailsprojectoct23.png

Name, Type and Dates

  • Project Name - The name of the service/project, this will be displayed to users.
  • Description - Only displays on this page for administrators.
  • Type of Project - Some Modules require a project to be set; Handypersons, IMCA, Funded Work and Roster. Both Handyperson and Roster also have additional option described below.
  • Use Termination and "in project"? - This will enable/disable the option to terminate people from projects if you solely want to use referral closure.
    • Roster Worker Only
      • Create Roster Workers Work Schedule Automatically? - Depending on how the service runs you can have a support plan created when a referral is received. If you are going to record cases/referrals that would be enquires or maybe an assessment needs to be carried out first you can select 'No'. The support plan can be created when the person/organisation has been accepted to receive the service.
      • Send email to co-ordinator email address (if 'Additional Notes' box is filled in on Jobcard entry screen) - When a worker has updated their work there is an option to record job notes that can be sent to the coordinator. It is strongly recommended that you use your own email servers (see Email Settings) and only use a secure email system (Encrypted email to the client application).
      • Co-ordinator email address - Enter the email address where the above notes would be sent to.
    • Handy Persons Only
      • Create Handyperson Job Automatically? - Depending on how the service runs you can have a JP Job Card created when a referral is received. If you are going to record cases/referrals that would be enquires or maybe an assessment needs to be carried out first you can select 'No'. The HP Job Card can be created when the person/organisation has been accepted to receive the service.
  • Start Date - This is a non reportable field and is for information purposes only, specifies the start date of the service.
  • End Date - This is a non reportable field and is for information purposes only, specifies the end date of the service.
  • Active? - When set to yes the project is available to be used and reported on. When set to no the project cannot be used to accept new referrals/cases or to be reported on. Any history on a person/org record will be visible for inactive projects.

Branches (Requires Branch Module)

With the Branch Module you will have a 'Branches' section. On this section you are able to select which branches this project is available to. You can also select branch views (groups of branches).

Branchesprojectoct23.png

If a project is set across branches and a user has access to this project and the branches you can set the user record to view referrals/cases from these branches (see Users).

Field Sets

This section specifies which GDPR field set(s) are required for this project to function. If you need Names, addresses etc for the service user then this requires a field set(s) to specify these fields (See Field Sets). When a user logs in the system will look at the projects the user has access to and display the fields required by these projects.

Fieldsetprojectoct23.png

Simply select all the field sets that are required by this project. Visit Field Sets to edit or create a new one.

Record a Contact

This section controls the functionality of the Record A Contact screen, see Contact Management. You can decide which fields appear on the Record a Contact screen. This means you can tailor that screen to the requirements of the project. If it's just used to record information about a process, you may not need things like Referrer, a Contact Method etc. Options for fields are:

  • Dont Show
  • Show on page - can be un-selected
  • Show - warn if not filled in - will prompt users with a reminder to fill in, but will allow to be left un-selected
