Revamped [STFF-103] Staff Active Caseload Report

This is a highly useful report for managers because it displays everything that a selected staff/users have documented or entered in the system during a period. The report offers a detailed look at a user's current caseload. A staff member is considered assigned to an enrollment based on the Assigned Staff selection in the program enrollment. The default value for the Assigned Staff is the user that created the enrollment record. The report will display all clients with active enrollments who are assigned to the selected staff. The webpage report output format was built with drilldown functionality so you can click into different sections to see more details across three drilldown tables.

  • The Assessment Table includes assessment name, date and score
  • The Services Table includes the service category, service name & service item, delivery type, start and end dates, total service days and expenses (if applicable). 
  • The Case Notes Table displays the case note title, category, date, time tracking (when applicable) and the full case note

The report contains

  • Assigned Staff, Program Name
  • Clients Name, Unique ID, DOB, Relationship to HH member
  • Start Date, Length of Stay (LOS)
  • Total Number of assessments, services, and case notes provided
