============================================================================= Run Date: JUN 30, 2004 Designation: DVBA*2.7*66 Package : DVBA - AUTOMATED MED INFO EXCHANGE Priority: Mandatory Version : 2.7 SEQ #61 Status: Released Compliance Date: JUL 31, 2004 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)DVBA*2.7*53 <<= must be installed BEFORE `DVBA*2.7*66' Subject: CAPRI GUI UPDATE - C&P WORKSHEET MODULE Category: - Informational Description: ============ This informational patch has been released to announce an update to the CAPRI GUI executable: the Compensation and Pension Worksheet Module (CPWM). The new GUI will utilize several security keys referred to in DVBA*2.7*53. If your site has not yet set up those keys for C&P providers, please review the patch description for DVBA*2.7*53 prior to distributing this version of the GUI to your C&P staff. Note that this GUI primarily provides VHA C&P provider functionality. Namely, a new function has been added to create C&P exam templates that feed into TIU and resolve simultaneously in AMIE. Refer to patch DVBA*2.7*53 for further details. Some VHA sites may not have traditionally deployed CAPRI in the past, but this new functionality is intended for use at VAMC's. CAPRI users with the appropriate security keys will see 4 C&P templates within the CAPRI software. Future C&P exam templates will be released in the form of VistA patches that will automatically activate themselves in this new GUI. Local sites do not currently have the option to modify templates. To suggest changes or provide comments on the content of the templates, please direct all communication to the TVH CPEP NEWS mailgroup on Outlook. As a reminder, users of this GUI will need corresponding TIU C&P titles. Review patch DVBA*2.7*53 for more information. IRM/IT Services may wish to provide Clinical Application Coordinators the DVBA*2.7*53 patch description and DVBA*2.7*66 CAPRI GUI so these titles can be set up correctly. TRAINING ======== The National Training and Education Office (NT&EO) has created the following CAPRI CPWM training website to provide you with information, video demonstrations and materials to support your understanding of the Compensation and Pension Worksheet Module: "http://vaww.vistau.med.va.gov/vistau/capri/default.htm" This web site will be periodically updated with new information, links and other materials to support the use of CAPRI CPWM at your site. GUI CHANGES =========== 1. A new "C&P Worksheets" tab will be available to those provided the DVBA CAPRI WORKSHEET TAB key or one of the DVBA CPWM keys referred to in DVBA*2.7*53. (Those with the "@" symbol for Fileman security will see all CAPRI options by default, despite their security keys.) 2. The TOOLS | UNSIGNED C&P WORKSHEETS menu option has been added to assist users with locating their unsigned templates. It's tied to the same keys as the "C&P Worksheets" tab. 3. CAPRI will automatically search for unsigned worksheets at login and display an appropriate message reminding the user to complete their worksheets, if they have any. The user can immediately call up the unsigned worksheets dialog from the informational message. 4. If a user is identified as a reviewer by assignment of the DVBAB CPWM REVIEWER key and there are new documents to review, they will be prompted at login, similar to the message users receive for unsigned worksheets. 5. There is a new "Uncosigned C&P Worksheet Utility" menu option on the TOOLS menu. This is tied to the DVBA CAPRI EXAM LIST EDIT key. Users (such as C&P clerks) who are responsible for transferring co-signed C&P exams from TIU to AMIE can use this new option to automate the process for templates created in CAPRI-CPWM that are co-signed in CPRS/TIU.

USER ACCESS TO CAPRI ==================== (Please refer to patch DVBA*2.7*53 for information on assigning access to the new C&P Worksheet tab.) CAPRI users without the "@" sign and programmer access will have to be assigned an option context.

So if the option is not assigned in some fashion, the user will get a message that they do not have access to CAPRI. There are two ways to grant a user access to CAPRI. * You can add CAPRI GUI Broker [DVBA CAPRI GUI] as an ITEM in the OPTION file on a user's assigned primary menu. * You can place CAPRI GUI Broker [DVBA CAPRI GUI] on a user's individual secondary menu.
