Subject: VIC II SINGLE SIGN-ON ENHANCEMENT

Category: 
  - Informational

Description:
============

 I. OVERVIEW
  
   This patch upgrades the Patient Image Capture (PICS) workstation software
   to implement Single Sign-on/User Context (SSO/UC) capability.  The patch
   allows users who authenticate and sign-on using SSO/UC-enabled
   Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS v26) to bypass the additional
   logons required when PICS retrieves patient demographics from VistA
   Registration and when PICS submits the veteran's photo to VistA Imaging.
  
   This software for this patch and the VistA Imaging patch MAG*3.0*38 is
   being released as a single distribution to be installed on the PICS
   workstation.  No VistA server-side software accompanies this distribution.
