Reported Issues

DFDD-81

Clinic

Benefits (Issue Benefits)

Issue: The DFDD does not specify the default date for the Selected LDTU of calendar control when the Selected LDTU of radio button is selected on the Benefits (Issue Benefits) screen.

Resolution: When the Selected LDTU of radio button is selected, the calendar control defaults to the earliest possible cycle adjustment for the household. This information has been added to DFDD.

DFDD-82

Clinic

Pregnancy Information

Issue: The Date Prenatal Care Began calendar control on the Pregnancy Information screen incorrectly documented the mask to be "##/##/####". The calendar control only allows the entry of a month and year.

Resolution: The DFDD has been updated to reflect the application. The Date Prenatal Care Began calendar control mask has been changed to "##/####".

Generate Report screens

Issue: If a default printer has not been set up, reports from the Generate Reports screen that have the Display on Screen radio button selected do not display. The DFDD does not specify that the Display on Screen radio button requires a default printer.

Resolution: The DFDD has been updated for all generate report screens to include the requirements of the Display on Screen radio button. Additionally, the processes of the OK button on the generate report screens have been updated to include the system response if no default printer is currently selected.

DFDD-85

Clinic

Pregnancy Information

Issue: On the Pregnancy Information screen, the system allows a user to enter a LMP Start Date that matches the same month and year as the date entered in Last Pregnancy Ended. According to the DFDD, a standard error message should display informing the user that the Last Pregnancy Ended date must be before the LMP Start Date.

Resolution: The DFDD has been updated to reflect the application. The DFDD now states that the value entered in for Last Pregnancy Ended can be less than or equal to the value of the LMP Start Date.

DFDD-86

Clinic

Child Health Information

Issue: The DFDD does not document the SETSTARTDATETODOB business rule in the business rule appendix or on the Child Health Information screen.

Resolution: The information is currently in the DFDD, and no change was made.

DFDD-87

Clinic

Benefits (Issue Benefits)

Issue: The DFDD states that the system checks for pending benefits on the Benefits (Issue Benefits) screen prior to beginning a recertification. This caused the system to enforce issuing pending benefits, but this was not the desired system response. Instead, the system should allow a recertification attempt even when pending benefits remain.

Resolution: The DFDD topics for the Participant Folder toolbar and Participant Activities menu have been updated to remove the check performed by the system. The standard confirmation message that was displayed should pending benefits exist prior to a recertification has been removed from the DFDD.

DFDD-88

Clinic

Benefits (Issue Benefits)

Issue: The initializing the interface section on the Benefits (Issue Benefits) screen states, "The Household Member Information data grid is populated with members of the household assigned to the local clinic." The data grid is actually populated with all members of the household, not just those assigned to the local clinic, as described under the screen elements for the Household Member Information data grid.

Resolution: The DFDD has been updated to reflect the application. The initializing the interface section now states, "The Household Member Information data grid is populated with members of the same household."

SUG-643

State Office

Add New Inventory

Issue: When trying to enter new breastpumps on the Add New Inventory screen, several standard error messages are received about setting the compatibility level for the current database and SQL server.

Resolution: This issue is caused by the SQL scripts that were developed for SQL 2000 being run against a SQL 2008 database when the compatibility level is set to 100. The data views V_Products and V_CertificationNotice were modified to replace the non-ANSI syntaxt (*=) with the ANSI standard LEFT OUTER JOIN, and this allows the database to be run with the compatibility level set to 100.

Clinic

Issue Benefits

Issue: The following standard error message is received when a user clicks on the Issue Benefits toolbar button in the Participant Folder: "The conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value". The system is creating records with null as the CertEndDate and CertEffectiveDate. On occasion, the system is accessing a certification record with a null value.

Resolution: This was caused by an old certification record with a null end date (CertContact records with null values in the CertEndDate column). The data view has been modified to exclude such records since they are invalid. Additionally, the code has been modified to exclude null records that are pulled directly from the table, which has resolved the issue. The creation of null records will be addressed in a later release.

SUG-1193

Clinic

Participant List and Participant Folder

Issue: A certified woman's status is changed from breastfeeding to non-breastfeeding, but the certification end date did not change in the Participant Folder. The change in status is not reflected on the Participant List screen. The certification is still effective for a year, and the certification end date does not change.

Resolution: The certification end date is being changed in the system, but it is not visible to the user until a search is performed again. The code has been change to refresh the Participant List data grid on the Participant List screen with the new WIC status. Additionally, a standard warning message has been added to the Participant Folder with the text, "Certification end date will change to {##/##/####}." This standard warning message confirms to the user that the WIC category has been changed.

SUG-1339

Clinic

Benefits (Issue Benefits)

Issue: An infant participant born on January 30 cannot be issued 1-month benefits on the Benefits (Issue Benefits) screen when the benefit issuance date is February 28 of the same year. When a user attempts to issue benefits to a participant with an end of month birth date, and the issuance date is February 28, a standard error message is displayed and the benefits cannot be issued. If the issuance date is moved to March 1, the benefits can be issued.

Resolution: The create food prescription functionality uses the AddMonths functionality to add months to the participant's date of birth to determine the benefit issuance date. The GetAge category functionality uses different logic that does not account for the AddMonths functionality. When a participant has a date of birth of 1/31/11, the benefits are created for 2/28/11 based on the AddMonths functionality. However, the GetAge category functionality calculates the age of the participant on 2/28/11 as being 28 days old. Therefore, the system does not recognize the participant as being 1-month old. The GetAge category functionality has been changed to account for the month of February when a participant has an end of month birthday.

Participant Folder

Issue: When the Print Certification Notice menu option is selected from the Participant Activities menu of the Participant Folder, the Spanish Certification Notice that prints is different from the English Certification Notice.

Resolution: The Spanish Certification Notice that is generated was specific to Minnesota. A new version of the Spanish Certification Notice has been created for other clients.

Clinic

Capture Electronic Signature (for Receipt of the Rights and Responsibilities Statement)

Issue: When certifying multiple family members on the same date, the system is requiring a signature for each participant on the Capture Electronic Signature (for Receipt of the Rights and Responsibilities Statement) screen. For participants certifying on the same date, the signature from the first completed certification should populate the signature box and be saved for each record.

Resolution: Code has been added to verify if a signature is captured for a household on the current day. If a signature was captured on the current day, it is displayed on the Capture Electronic Signature (for Receipt of the Rights and Responsibilities Statement) screen. Otherwise, the screen is displayed without a signature.

Certification Guided Script and Demographics

Issue: When certifying more than one participant for the same household, "Pending Proof" is selected from the Residency Proof drop-down list box but it is not being carried over to the other household members during their certification. Additionally, if the Residency Proof drop-down list box value is changed on the Demographics screen of the Participant Folder for one household member, it is not changed for the other household members.

Resolution: When "Pending Proof" is selected during the Certification Guided Script and there is another participant in the same household who is certified on the same date, the "Pending Proof" selection auto-populates. If the certifications do not occur on the same date, "Pending Proof" does not auto-populate. Any other selection from the Residency Proof drop-down list box auto-populates during the Certification Guided Script based on the participant who has the most recent residency verification date. The "Pending Proof" selection only transfers during the Certification Guided Script if the ENABLECOPYRESIDENCY business rule is set to "Y".

Any change to Residency Proof in the Participant Folder transfers to all household members in a valid certification except "Pending Proof".

Clinic

Demographics

Issue: When a new certification is started, but not completed, for a participant and then the incomplete certification is removed, the ID Proof and Residency Proof drop-down list boxes are cleared on the Demographics screen of the Participant Folder.

Resolution: The code has been changed so the ID Proof and Residency Proof drop-down list boxes retain their previously saved values when an incomplete certification is removed.

SUG-1486

Clinic

Risk Factors

Issue: A record with a pseudo-cert causes the Risk Factors Display tree list on the Risk Factors screen to display records out of chronological order.

Resolution: The Risk Factors Display tree list was being sorted by CertificationID, which caused the certifications to be out of order because the certifications were not assigned their IDs based on the CertEffectiveDate. The Risk Factors Display tree list has been modified to sort the certification records based on both the CertEffectiveDate and the CertStartDate. This ensures the certification records are displayed in chronological order.

Clinic

Demographics

Issue: When certifying a new household with multiple members, an option is selected from the Household Smoking drop-down list box on the AdditionalInfo1 screen. After certifying the first participant of the household, the next participant also required an entry in the Household Smoking drop-down list box. The system allows the user to complete the certification when the Household Smoking drop-down list box is blank. This information should be saved and transferred to all members of the household.

Additionally, Risk Factor 904 is not assigned to all household members when "Yes" is selected from the Household Smoking drop-down list box. If every household members' Participant Folder is open during a certification attempt, the Household Smoking drop-down list box selection is not transferred from one member's Participant Folder to another.

Resolution: The code has been change to transfer one participant's selection from the Household Smoking drop-down list box to all other participants within the same household. This transfer occurs regardless of whether the other household members are present during certification. Additionally, the selection is transferred to any household members added at a later date.

If more than one Participant Folder is open for a household, the selection made in Household Smoking does not transfer to the other household participants. There is no automatic refresh that updates the household changes made in one Participant Folder so the Household Smoking selection is not displayed in another participant's Participant Folder within the same household. The database is updated with the Household Smoking selection, but the Participant Folder for other household participants is not updated with the new information until the screen is refreshed by updating data or reopening the Participant Folder.

If the Household Smoking drop-down list box is set to "Yes", then Risk Factor 904 is assigned to all participants who are currently in a valid certification. Risk Factor 904 is not assigned if "No" or "Unknown" is selected. If the Household Smoking selection changes from "Yes" to "No" or "Unknown", Risk Factor 904 is removed from all participants who are currently in a valid certification.

Food Item Distribution

Issue: A nine-month old infant with special formula is shown to receive six cans for the first two benefits, then five cans for the third benefit on the Food Item Distribution screen. When the checks for the benefits are printed, six cans of special formula are given for each check instead of six cans for two checks and five cans for the third check.

Resolution: The code has been changed so the maximum exception logic is used for special formula. The Food Item Distribution screen currently uses the exception logic code, therefore it displays the correct benefit amounts. When issuing benefits, the exception logic code is not used due to a prior change in the code to fix the issuance of cheese benefits. The changes made have been reversed to correct this issue.

SUG-1550

Clinic

Risk Factor

Issue: Risk Factor 371 was incorrectly removed from a pregnant woman who smoked three cigarettes per day. For postpartum women, the system is checking for the standard risk factor assignment of greater than zero (>0) cigarettes per day. For pregnant women, the system is checking the high risk threshold to determine if Risk Factor 371 should be assigned and not just flagged high risk. Depending on the value defined for the high risk threshold, the system may remove Risk Factor 371 because the number of cigarettes the woman smokes does not cross the high risk threshold.

Resolution: The code was written that if RiskFactorReference.HighRisk is "Y" in the RISKFACTORTHRESHOLD table, the participant received the risk factor and then the high risk flag. The system never checked the high risk criteria. The code has been changed for Risk Factor 371 to use the standard threshold for pregnant women when assigning the risk factor. The risk factor is applied with the high risk flag only if the participant smokes more than the standard and high risk threshold amounts, and RiskFactorReference.HighRisk is set to "Y". For the high risk threshold, the system uses the threshold value on the AssignmentType "H" and the corresponding ThresholdID. For non-high risk, the system uses the threshold value on the AssignmentType "S" and the corresponding ThresholdID.

System Administration

Approved Product List (APL) File

Issue: When the APL file is built in the System Administration application using MAR (Maximum Allowable Reimbursement) values, there are not enough transactions to calculate a new MAR for some peer groups. As a result, the old subcategory for MAR is displayed in the APL file.

Resolution: The code has been changed so the APL file is built from the values in the UPC table rather than the MAR table. The UPC.FOODCATEGORYCD is used as both the category and subcategory instead of the MAR category and subcategory in Wic.FoodInstruments.JPMAPLFile.LoadAPLFile.

SUG-1582

Clinic

Food Adjustment Wizard

Issue: An infant or child participant cannot have a prescription formula added to their benefits on the Food Adjustment Wizard screen because no formula is available for selection. The Food Adjustment Wizard screen only adds the current benefits and ignores previous benefit issuances.

Resolution: The code has been changed so the FDTU and LDTU dates are taken into account when deciding to choose the prescription formula or the existing issuance on the Food Adjustment Wizard screen. The system now allows additional quantities of formula for the current benefit issuance.

SUG-1639

Direct Distribution

Direct Distribution Redemption

Issue: On the Direct Distribution Redemption screen, when the Print Food List button is clicked, the font of CVB items, and all items that follow it, print in a smaller font. The check printing code has a condition that reduces the font if the item quantity field is greater than two characters. This is necessary for printing paper checks.

Resolution: The code has been changed to add the issuance type to the check printing code and to include a condition not to reduce the font size for the printed food list. The check font size is still reduced accordingly.
