Defining If Priorities Applicable

Administrators can specify whether or not priority selection is applicable to an assessment definition. Priority selection is used to ensure that the most pressing or urgent assessment results are dealt with by a caseworker. When the Priorities Applicable indicator is selected, a check box is displayed beside each factor for which a client was assessed on the assessment results page. The caseworker can select each factor that is considered a priority from this list. For example, a case worker might prioritize the factors for which the client scored the lowest results.

If the Priorities Applicable indicator is not selected, the priority selection check boxes are not displayed in the case worker application.

Configuration settings are also available which allow an administrator to hide particular results from priority selection and to hide a particular result for selected factors from the priority selection list. See Hiding Classification From Assessment Results for more information.

Two configuration settings are also available that allow a minimum and maximum number of priority factors to be specified for each classification. See Defining Priority for more information.
