Pathways released V5.16.86. This release addressed the editing procedures for special needs specifically for program entry and program exit records.

To view the tutorial on how to add or update special needs, follow this clicking sequence: go to www.pcni.info > Training > Download Guides & Manuals > scroll to the bottom > click on Updating Special Needs Tutorial or follow the instructions below:

1. Search and activate the client record (by clicking on the General Link from the Results List).
2. Click on the Program link under the Client Visit Menu.
3. Click edit next to the Program.
4. Click on the Click HERE to add or edit SPECIAL NEEDS information link.

When either Special Needs at Program Entry or Special Needs at Program Exit link is clicked, a pop up window will display the same information as the Special Needs page itself.

If a Special Needs record is linked to the program, its values will be shown (subject to User Access Rights restrictions noted below). If there is no record, all option buttons will be empty (referred to as “a blank page”).

Note: User Access Rights
If the Special Needs check box on the Agency User Maintenance page is not selected, then the Special Needs link on the Update Program section will not display.

User Interface Survey Released

Pathways Community Network has released the User Interface Survey.

This survey is to gather information about changes you feel need to be made to the user interface. Ultimately, we will look to make the modifications that will benefit users and our communities by making the system more user friendly and ensure
required data is being collected. The survey will take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete and we are asking you to complete it by March 1st, 2012.

All active users were sent a survey to complete via email. If you did not receive this email and would like to participate, please contact Jeanette Pollock at jeanette.pollock@pcni.org
