INC24080736 - Remove Ability to Login with Access/Verify (A/V) Codes Problem: -------- The VDIF NUMI Service does not support logging into a VistA with A/V codes. Resolution: ----------- Removed code flow that falls back to A/V login when STS fails to link the user account to the VistA system. 2. INC24080660 - Configure Synchronizer to Implement VDIF Problem: -------- VistA Integration Adapter (VIA) is being decommissioned. Resolution: ----------- Updated the configuration to make calls to VDIF instead of VIA and alter the code to support authentication requirements with VDIF. 3. WEBNUMI-180:INC24080487 - Configure Application to implement VDIF and modify NUMI application to use Non-person-entity (NPE)tokens Problem: -------- VistA Integration Adapter (VIA) is being decommissioned which also removes ability to use batch login access/verify codes to VISTA's. As a result, NUMI Super users are unable to access patient information from VistA sites where they do not have an active VistA account using VIDF interface with user tokens. Resolution: ----------- Updated the configuration to make calls to VDIF instead of VIA and alter the code to support authentication requirements with VDIF. Modify NUMI application to use Non-person-entity (NPE) tokens to access patient information from VistA using VIDF interface. This allows NUMI Super users to access patient data from VistA sites where they don't have an active VistA account. 4. INC28467522 - Modify NUMI Synchronizer Logging Problem: -------- The NUMI Synchronizer does not log enough information to help with troubleshooting. Resolution: ----------- Updated the code to provide more technical information in the Event log such as Site code and a full stack trace for the error/warning. 5. WEBNUMI-210 - Modify Sensitivity Warning message for compliance Problem: -------- When accessing a sensitive patient in NUMI application add "Do you want to continue accessing this patient record?" to the sensitivity warning message from VistA. Resolution: ----------- Modify NUMI code to append additional question to the sensitivity message from VistA. Also, add the flexibility to update this message in NUMI config file.
