$TXT Created by URRUTIA,PAM at DDC.DOMAIN.EXT (KIDS) on Friday, 07/29/11 at 12:01 ============================================================================= Run Date: JUL 01, 2013 Designation: RMPF*3*4 Package : RMPF - REMOTE ORDER/ENTRY SYSTEM Priority: Mandatory Version : 3 SEQ #4 Status: Released Compliance Date: AUG 01, 2013 ============================================================================= Subject: ROES3 ELIGIBILITY MODIFICATIONS AND ENHANCEMENTS Category: - Enhancement (Mandatory) - Routine Description: ============ This patch addresses several issues that have come up at the VA Medical Centers since the first release of the ROES package. All issues addressed in this patch are related to the ROES application that runs from the CPRS Tools menu (ROES3.exe). The ROES Desktop application (ROES3Desktop.exe) is only included for issues 2 and 3 below. Issues addressed in this patch are: 1. As approved by the PSAS Program Office, all Veteran eligibility determinations calculated by the software will be automatically approved. Veteran eligibility requests will no longer be sent to the Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service (PSAS) staff for approval. Changes in the background calculations for Veteran eligibility are detailed in the Release Notes for this patch. 2. For added security, the web connection has been changed from clear http to secure http using the https protocol identifier. 3. Adjustments were made for 64 bit terminal servers to access and use the ROES web site. 4. Connections from CPRS to the ROES web server will only be allowed from a VistA production account to prevent false Veteran information from becoming a part of the national database. 5. Menu options, routines, remote procedure calls and security keys from prior versions of ROES that are no longer needed will be removed. Obsolete Options removed: RMPFDE2 and RMPFDE4 Obsolete Routines removed: RMPFDE1,RMPFDE2,RMPFDE3 and RMPFDE4 Obsolete Keys removed: RMPF SUPERVISOR and RMPF SYSTEM MANAGER Obsolete Remote Procedures removed: RMPF ELIG MSG and RMPFELIG 6. Modifications for VistA and Delphi coding standards are included. 7. Documentation has been updated regarding the removal of the eligibility interactions before connecting to ROES. Associated Remedy Tickets: ====================================== N/A E3R references addressed in this patch ====================================== N/A Test Sites ======== Miami Omaha Columbia (SC) Required Builds ============= RMPF*3.0*1 This patch contains the following enhancements and problem resolutions: ========================================================== The ROES application requires that the user's browser have JAVA available and enabled in order to function. Sun has not developed a 64-bit version of JAVA, so on 64-bit terminal server installations the browser is not JAVA capable. This may prevent some ROES features from working properly. 64-bit installations also have a 32-bit browser which resides at a location different from the normal 32-bit location. That new location is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE. The ROES executables that connect to the internet application have been modified to check for the 32-bit Internet Explorer at that location. This change will not affect any current 32-bit installations because, if Internet Explorer is not found at that location, ROES will look in the usual installation directories: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE or C:\Program Files\PLUS!\Microsoft Internet\IEXPLORE.EXE On a 64-Bit installation, if the ROES application still does not work properly after installing the new executable, please ensure the path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" does exist on the workstation. All workstations accessing the ROES application from either CPRS or the desktop need to have the RPCBroker Listener running, as in the previous releases of ROES. Refer to the RPCBroker Installation Guide for further direction, if needed. It can be retrieved from http://www.domain.ext/vdl. The following VistA routines have been modified to address new standards guidelines. 1. RMPFRPC0 - Eligibility calculations were modified for new rules and categories and is now called directly from RMPFRPC1 instead of from remote procedure call RMPFELIG. 2. RMPFRPC1 - DDC changed to DALC. Added check to see if running from a production account. Comments were added and clarified.

Sites may also elect to retrieve software directly from a specific server as follows: OI FIELD OFFICE FTP ADDRESS DIRECTORY Albany ftp.fo-albany.domain.ext anonymous.software Hines ftp.fo-hines.domain.ext anonymous.software Salt Lake City ftp.fo-slc.domain.ext anonymous.software INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: ========================= Make a backup copy of the current ROES3.exe and ROES3Desktop.exe files (from a location where they currently are being used) to a backup location. Note the locations where all instances of those executables exist, for future maintenance. All obsolete options, routines and remote procedure calls from previous ROES versions will be removed during the installation. The list items being removed is listed in the ROUTINE SUMMARY SECTION of the build. Only ROES users need be off the system while ROES*3.0*4 is being installed. This patch should be installed during non-peak hours to minimize disruption. The total installation may take 15 minutes or more, depending on the CPRS Tools menu structure and number of ROES and ROES Desktop executables to update at your site. Be sure that the KIDS install (steps 1-9) are completed before updating the executables (steps 10-11). The KIDS install will run in under 5 minutes. Review your mapped set. If the routines listed in the ROUTINE SUMMARY section of the build are mapped, they should be removed from the mapped set at this time. 1. Choose the INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE option on the PackMan menu. Answer YES to the prompt 'Want to Continue with Load? YES//'. This will load the KIDS package onto your system. 2. From the Kernel Installation and Distribution System Menu, select the Installation menu. 3. From this menu, you may elect to use the following options (when prompted for INSTALL NAME, enter RMPF*3.0*4): a. Backup a Transport Global - this option will create a backup message of any routines exported with the patch. It will not backup any changes to DD's. b. Compare Transport Global to Current System - this option will allow you to view all changes to routines that will be made when the patch is installed. c. Verify Checksums in Transport Global - this option will allow you to ensure the integrity of the routines that are in the Transport Global. 4. Then choose the Install Package(s) option and select RMPF*3.0*4. 5. When prompted "Want KIDS to INHIBIT LOGONs during the install? NO//", respond NO (unless otherwise indicated) 6. When prompted 'Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options, Menu Options, and Protocols? YES//', respond "YES". When prompted to select the options you would like to place out of order, enter the following: ROES3 OPTION ACCESS [RMPF ROES3] 7. If prompted 'Enter protocols you wish to mark as 'Out of Order': press . 8. When prompted 'Delay Install (Minutes): (0-60): 0//; respond '0.' 9. If you unmapped routines at the start, those SENT TO SITE should be returned to the mapped set once this part of the installation is complete. 10. Retrieve the file RMPF3_0P4.ZIP and extract files ROES3.exe and ROES3DeskTop.exe. 11. All existing instances of ROES3.exe and ROES3DeskTop.exe need to be replaced, regardless of whether they reside on server(s) or individual workstation(s). To do this, copy the new executable files to those locations, replacing the existing version. Take care NOT to inadvertently replace the ROES3.exe file with the ROES3DeskTop.exe file or vice versa. When this is completed properly, the command line option from CPRS Tools and the desktop links to ROES should continue to work without any modifications. If additional guidance is needed for the GUI installation, please refer to the ROES 3 Installation Guide on the System Design and Development web page at: http://www.domain.ext/vdl. Within the Clinical section look for 'Remote Order Entry System (ROES)'. Under that option you will find the Installation Guide, Security Guide, Technical Manual and User Manual.
