Enhancements
Version 1.29
The following table lists the enhancements that ChildPlus incorporated into the release of DataEngine version 1.29:
|
Screen |
Description |
|
Community Resources |
ChildPlus enhanced the Community Resources screen so that it now takes less time to delete a community resource in DataEngine. |
|
Immunizations |
ChildPlus updated the link to the CDC's Immunization Schedule that is available on this screen. This link was updated to reflect a recent URL change on the CDC's website. |
|
PIR Question C.9 |
ChildPlus modified the way that question C.9 is calculated in DataEngine. In prior releases, a child had to have at least one record in the Health Requirement Cache table in order for the override on this question to work. This requirement has now been removed. |
|
Preferences |
ChildPlus added an option to the
Preferences
dialog box that allows you to configure user security by region.
Select
Yes
if you want to assign user security by region.
If you select
No,
then ChildPlus will continue assigning user security by agency,
the default method.
|
|
User Setup |
This screen was enhanced so that you can now quickly make site and classroom assignments based on either agency or region. Once you have set up site and classroom security for your users, ChildPlus will automatically modify their security access if you ever add new sites, classrooms, or regions.
When you assign user security by agency (the default method), ChildPlus will automatically grant users access to each site and classroom that is associated with the agency you select. In addition, you also now have the option of assigning user security by region. If you enable this option in your system preferences, ChildPlus will automatically grant users access to each site and classroom that is associated with the region you select.
For more information on automating user security in ChildPlus, you can refer to online help. To access this topic, click on the Help menu in DataEngine and select Contents. Click on the Admin Tools book and select Security, and then User Setup. |

Reports
Version 1.29

New Report
ChildPlus added a new report, User Security Report (report number 1120), for the release of version 1.29. This report allows you to view which users are assigned to each user security group. For each security group, this report includes the following user information: Name, Employee ID, Position, Site, Login. Since this report contains sensitive security information, users must be a member of the Admin user security group in order to access it initially. If you want users who are not members of the Admin user security group to be able to access it, you will have to manually configure their security settings to include this report.
LiveReport Enhancements
ChildPlus resolved an issue that was occurring when you attempted to filter reports created using LiveReport based on participant groups.
