9.0 INTRODUCTION

Administrative functions of the Cornerstone system include maintenance of agency specific scheduling and provider tables, creation of files for the daily upload/download processes with the Central Office, staff and agency expense reporting, system security maintenance, and import and export functions. Administrative functions include those activities that are either not part of the daily activity or those which should be performed exclusively by site administration.

9.1 Beginning of Day Message Center

BOD messages will now display on each Cornerstone workstation when each user logs in to Cornerstone successfully. BOD messages will no longer print with the Beginning of Day process. New messages will be shown at the top of the screen and users should click on the word 'OPEN" to view each individual message in the bottom portion of the screen. To remove a message from the list once it has been read, place a checkmark in the box next to 'HAVE READ' in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. The message will no longer appear in the message center. In order to review a message once it has been marked as 'HAVE READ', users can run the HSPR0407 - Beginning of Day Messages report under the Reports menu.

Since the BOD messages will now show up on each user's workstation, messages will be sent to all users in a specific program. For example, when the WIC Program sends out a BOD message, it will only show up in the Message Centers of those users who are active in the WIC program. Messages with a Program of ALL will show up on all Cornerstone users' workstations. It is important for clinics to verify that all of the proper program(s) and statuses are listed in the AD15 - Employee Information screen for each employee. A new field labeled 'Cornerstone Liaison' has been added on the AD15 screen. If the user is a Cornerstone Liaison, adding information to the 'Cornerstone Liaison' field will display all of the BOD Messages to that user.

The Message Center and the BOD messages that it contains will not download to a laptop; however, the Message Center will appear when the laptop is connected to the network and the user is logged in with their User ID.

9.2 AUTOMATED EOD/BOD PROCESS (AD00)

Overview

  • Used to automatically run the End of Day (EOD) and Beginning of Day (BOD) processes. The automated process is designed to do the following, in sequence:
    1. Run the end of day process
    2. Sit in a "wait" state until a specified time
    3. Run the beginning of day process
      • Used to cancel the automated process, when necessary.
      • The user now has the option to schedule the Auto EOD process.
      • When the user schedules an Automated EOD, it is for the current day (one day) only.
      • Users can schedule the EOD anytime during the day, but the start time must be between 5:00 pm and 10:00 pm (NO EXCEPTIONS).
      • Once the process has been scheduled, it goes into an EOD Wait State (same as BOD Wait State) and the workstation CANNOT be used for the remainder of the day.
      • The scheduled process can be cancelled by pressing the ESC key and entering a User ID and Password (same as BOD Wait State)
      • The user still has the option to run the Auto EOD immediately (by pressing F6 Edit, enter "Y" to answer "Ready to run EOD" and then F4 save). The time field must not be changed when running the Auto EOD immediately.

Details

Only one user (called the operator from this point on) runs the automated EOD/BOD process. All other users must be logged out of the Cornerstone system at this time. When the beginning of day (BOD) process is complete, the Cornerstone system logs the operator out of Cornerstone. Because the EOD/BOD process is arranged to be completed in the early morning hours, users can begin regular use of the Cornerstone system when they arrive at work. The Central Office establishes the time for each site's BOD process to run.

A generic ID (999999998) is available to perform the end of day and beginning of day process so that the operator does not need to tie up their ID while running the process. This ID only has access to the Automated EOD/BOD Process (AD00) screen, Beginning of Day (AD10) screen, and End of Day (AD11) screen.

The following is a description of the sequence of events that take place during the automated EOD/BOD process.

EOD Process

The EOD process accomplishes the following:

  • Performs automatic terminations for the WIC and FCM programs
  • Creates upload files of the day's Cornerstone activity to be sent to the Central Office
  • Generates reports
  • Executes the purge process
  • Runs the re-index process every eighth end of day or when selected to run on the Clinic Administrative Data (AD14) screen

NOTE: On the seventh End of Day, the following message will be displayed: "Note: The next time the user runs End of Day, a complete re-index will be performed." When F6 Edit is pressed on the eighth end of day, the following message will be displayed: "IMPORTANT: A complete automated re-index will be performed with this End of Day. Please be sure that users remain out of Cornerstone until this process is completed." These messages allow the user running the End of Day process to notify the others of when the Cornerstone system will not be available.

All records that were updated and added since the last EOD process ran are included. For WIC, this process also uploads the obligations created by the printing of food instruments.

When the EOD process begins, the EOD messages are displayed on the screen:

If the site chooses to schedule the EOD to run at a later time in the day, a screen will be displayed as follows:

  • "Waiting for End of Day process. Process will begin on day/date/time*. Time remaining #hours, #minutes, # seconds**." (Black background with red/blue snake moving around the screen.

*(Day\date\time) will auto-fill with today's day of the week, date and the time selected to run EOD process. Day/Date cannot be changed. Time can be changed by canceling the EOD process (press Esc) and setting up process again.

** hours/minutes/seconds is a LIVE countdown to the actual time selected to run the process.

Upon reaching the scheduled time the following messages will be displayed in the top pop-up window:

  • Creating upload tables
  • Transferring upload tables (screen goes blank)
  • Printing daily reports (screen comes back)
  • Printing monthly reports
  • Running purge process
  • Running re-index process

If the site does NOT schedule a time for the EOD process:

The process will start immediately and user sees two pop-up windows over the current screen. The box at the top will describe which tasks are being completed, while the box at the bottom has a status bar and lists any tables being processed. The messages that will be displayed in the top pop-up window are as follows:

  • Creating upload tables
  • Transferring upload tables (screen goes blank)
  • Printing daily reports (screen comes back)
  • Printing monthly reports
  • Running purge process
  • Running re-index process

The following is a comprehensive list of reports that are generated through the EOD process.

Daily EOD Reports:

  • HSPR0113 Food Instrument Log (WIC only)
  • HSPR0401 Upload Control Totals
  • HSPR0408 Cornerstone Re-indexing Report - Prints after re-index process has been run
  • HSPR0702 Summary of New Participants by Program
  • HSPR0711 Termination Report
  • HSPR0712 Case Management Program Category Code Changes by Participant
  • HSPR0772 EI Pending Provider Services Report

Monthly EOD Reports:

These reports are generated on two different days of the month, the 2nd of the month, and the last day of the month.

On the 2nd of the month, certain reports are printed for the previous month. For example, on February 2nd, the January reports are printed. The following reports print at this time:

  • HSPR0107 WIC Participant by Priority and Category
  • HSPR0108 WIC Education Summary
  • HSPR0116 WIC - Medically Prescribed Formula
  • HSPR0117 WIC Breastfeeding Initiation Report
  • HSPR0118 WIC Breastfeeding Reasons Ceased
  • HSPR0706 Participants Who Have Delivered in the Current Month
  • HSPR0718 WIC Breastfeeding Tracking Detail Report
  • HSPR0734 Caseload Composition Report
  • HSPR0734A Caseload Composition Detail Report

On the last day of the month, the Cornerstone system generates certain reports for the next month. For example, on February 28th, the March reports are printed. The following reports print at this time:

  • HSPR0705 Participants with Expected Delivery Date This Month
  • HSPR0707 Infants Who Will Turn 1 Year Old This Month
  • HSPR0743 Upcoming Terminations

Wait State

When the EOD process is finished, the screen of the machine being used enters the wait state. During this time, the screen displays information at the top about the time the BOD process will begin and how much time remains until the BOD process begins. The rest of the screen goes blank, except for a screen saver.

NOTE: Only the machine running the automated process and the operator's ID are affected by the wait state. Users may access the Cornerstone system on other machines once the process enters the wait state; however, all users must be logged out of Cornerstone before the BOD process begins.

BOD Process

The BOD process accomplishes the following:

  1. Updates the site's files with information from the Central Office;
  2. Generates reports.

All records from the Central Office that have been downloaded to the site are processed. When the BOD process begins, the operator's screen displays the message "Accessing the WAN" on a blank screen. The BOD messages are displayed. The user sees two pop-up windowes similar to the EOD boxes. The box at the top describes which tasks are being completed, while the box at the bottom has a status bar and lists any tables being processed. The messages that are seen in the top pop-up box are as follows:

  • Updating with download tables
  • Printing daily reports

NOTE: All user IDs except the operator's ID may access the Cornerstone system after the Master Index tables start processing. When the Master Index tables start processing, the bottom pop-up window displays "MASTNDX1." The operator can then inform the users that the Cornerstone system is ready to be accessed.

Once the BOD process is complete, the BOD reports are generated automatically. The following is a comprehensive list of reports that are generated through the BOD process.

Daily BOD Reports

  • HSPR0402 Download Control Totals
  • HSPR0404 Download Message Report
  • HSPR0405 Laptops Currently Downloaded

Other BOD Reports

The following report is generated monthly when the All Kids import process is run at the Central Office.

  • HSPR0724 Case Finding List

Step by Step Instructions

To Run the Automated Process

  1. Make sure all staff are logged out of the Cornerstone system.
  2. Make sure the laser printer has an adequate paper supply in the tray for printing the EOD and BOD reports.
  3. Access the Automated EOD/BOD Process (AD00) screen . The "Last Successful Upload Date" and "Last Successful Download Date" fields will display the last successful EOD and BOD processing dates.
  4. A new field has been added (Start EOD Time) which allows the EOD/BOD Operator to schedule the Automated EOD process to kick off anytime between the hours of 5:00-10:00 PM.
    • Start EOD Time: 00:00 PM -The user has the option to edit this field if in order to run the Automated process at a certain time. To immediately run the Automated EOD, leave this field blank.
    • Start EOD Date: XX\XX\XXXX This field in informational only, it defaults to today's date.
  5. Check the "Last Status" field. This field automatically displays one of the following three values:
    • C (Complete) - Indicates that the last time the automated process ran, all three steps ran to completion.
    • NOTE: If the EOD or BOD process completes abnormally, a message is sent to the printer to alert the users to this fact. Any messages will be displayed on the first page before the reports. Users should always check the reports generated by the EOD/BOD process at the beginning of the work day to verify that both processes completed successfully.
    • W (Wait State) - Indicates that the last time the process ran, it was interrupted during the wait state.
    • B (Beginning of Day) - Indicates that the last time the process ran, it was interrupted during the BOD process.

If a "W" or "B" is displayed, the BOD process must be run manually. Other reasons for running the EOD and BOD processing manually would include a situation where the site is closed all week and computer equipment needs to be turned off before staff leave or upon instruction from Central Office that a manual process be run.

NOTE: The operator can run the BOD and/or EOD process manually at any time, using the Beginning of Day (AD10) screen or End of Day (AD11) screen respectively. (Please refer to the Step by Step Instructions under "9.9 Beginning of Day (AD10)" and "9.10 End of Day (AD11)" in this chapter.)

  1. The "Start BOD Time" is an informational field that displays the time Central Office has set for that particular site's BOD to begin. This field is not editable.
  2. The "Start BOD Date" field displays the date that the BOD process executes. This field defaults to the next day that the clinic is scheduled to be open as listed on the AD04 - Clinic Schedules screen, but may be edited. Agencies may want to edit this field for various reasons, such as when sites aren't open every day of the week. These sites would schedule the BOD process to run the next day that the site IS open, so as to include the most recent updates from the Central Office. For the edit instructions, see step 8 below. NOTE: In order for the date to be correct, the clinic schedule must be accurate on the AD04 - Clinic Schedules screen.
  3. Press F6 Edit to edit.
  4. The "Ready to run EOD/BOD?" pop-up box is displayed. Type "Y" for Yes.
  5. If the operator would like to schedule the EOD process to run at a specific time add the hours/minutes in the Start EOD Time filed and press Enter. If the Automated EOD Process is to start now, leave the time field blank. If the operator would like to change the date that the BOD process runs, press Enter until the cursor is on the "Start BOD Date" field. Edit this field to reflect a future date up to 2 weeks from the current date.
  6. Press F4 to save. The automated EOD/BOD process begins.

NOTE:

For Regular EOD process:

If there are still users logged into the Cornerstone system, a pop-up window will appear with the message "Users logged into System. All users must be out of the system to run End of Day process. Check ALL workstations. Press Esc to continue." After checking all stations and making sure all users are logged out of Cornerstone, press Esc. A pop-up window with the message "Retry End of Day? Yes/No" will appear.

  • By selecting "Yes," the system will re-check to make sure all users are logged out of the system. If all users are logged out of the system at this time, End of Day processing will continue. If all users still are not logged out of the system, the first pop-up message box will appear again.
  • By selecting "No," the End of Day process will be aborted.

For Schedule EOD process:

When the Cornerstone system reaches the appointed time, the Schedule EOD will kick off, if there are still users logged into the Cornerstone system, a pop-up window will appear with the message "Users logged into System. All users must be out of the system to run End of Day process. Check ALL workstations. Press Esc to continue." A pop-up window will appear displaying users logged in. After those users have logged out, (just resetting the log in flag will not exit the user from Cstone) a pop-up window with the message "Retry End of Day? Yes/No" will appear. This message will remain on the screen until acknowledge by a user.

  • By selecting "Yes," the system will re-check to make sure all users are logged out of the system. If all users are logged out of the system at this time, End of Day processing will continue. If all users still are not logged out of the system, the first pop-up message box will appear again.
  • By selecting "No," the End of Day process will be aborted.

Note: If this message is found on the evening of the process, after successfully getting all users logged out answer 'Yes' to retry. If this is found the next morning, then question should be answered 'No' do not retry. The system will abort the Auto EOD/BOD process and will allow the user to log into Cornerstone. The user should then run a Manual BOD.

  1. First, the EOD process occurs. (Please refer to the beginning of this section under EOD Process for more information about this process.)
  2. When the EOD process is complete, the screen enters the wait state. (Please refer to the beginning of this section under Wait State for more information about this process.)
  3. When the Cornerstone system reaches the appointed time, the BOD process runs. (Please refer to the beginning of this section under BOD Process for more information about this process.)
  4. The Cornerstone system automatically logs the operator out of Cornerstone.
  5. If either the EOD or BOD process has difficulty connecting to the Central Office, the automated screen will attempt to make another connection should the current attempt fail.

If the first attempt fails, a message will appear stating "Connection Not Successful. Wait 1 minute to try connecting again. Press ESC key to cancel." After the one minute has passed, the system attempts to dial again. If the second attempt to connect fails, the message "Connection Not Successful. Wait 5 minutes to try connecting again. Press ESC to cancel" is displayed. The system then waits five (5) minutes before attempting to re-connect. If the five (5) minute attempt fails, the system then returns to the one minute wait.

  1. The Cornerstone system will try to connect in intervals of one (1) minute then five (5) minutes (this is one interval) for a total of seven (7) intervals before the process is considered unsuccessful and stop trying. An appropriate error message will print out stating that there was a connection problem with the Central Office.

NOTE: Cornerstone Support does not recommend pressing the ESC key to cancel out of the process since the EOD/BOD process retries several times automatically. Exiting and retrying manually should only be done when instructed by Cornerstone Support.

To Cancel the Automated Process

When the automated process is in the wait state, the operator may cancel the process.

  1. Press Esc.
  2. The operator is prompted for a password. Enter the correct password of the ID used to run the automated process.
  3. The Cornerstone system prompts the operator with the message "Cancel Automated EOD/BOD Process?"
  1. To cancel the process, type "Y" for Yes. The Cornerstone system will return to the Automated EOD/BOD Process (AD00) screen .
  2. To return to the wait state, press "N" for no. The Cornerstone system will return to the wait state.

9.5 Clinic Schedules (AD04)

Overview

  • Used to build and maintain clinic (site) schedules and clinic (site) resources available for each schedule.
  • Used to create the clinic (site) "Master" Schedule for the entire clinic and separate schedules for clinic (site) appointments and classes as needed.
  • Each site has flexibility in determining how to build schedules for their own unique needs. Once built, the site also is able to identify resources available for their clinic schedules. The F9 fast path key may be used to go to the "Identify Resources/Slots" screen, but this function is not available for class schedules.
  • The Master Schedule (schedule ID = "00") is displayed first. The clinic schedules are displayed in ascending order by schedule ID.
  • The F10 fast path key may be used to go to the Schedule Closed Dates (AD19) screen and carry forward the schedule that is being worked on into that screen.

Details

The Central Office sets up the Master Schedule for the site. When the Clinic Schedules screen (AD04) is accessed, this pre-set Master Schedule will be displayed. The only fields that can be edited by the local agency are the following:

  • "Open Time"
  • "Close Time"
  • "Comments."

The site may need to edit the times to reflect the actual hours when their building doors are open (unlocked). This is important information for the Central Office to know, for maintenance and repair purposes.

Details

The user can perform either a download or an upload of information from this screen, but cannot do both at the same time.

Not counting the actual day the download is performed, Cornerstone users have eight (8) calendar days to work on their laptop. For example, if a user downloads to their laptop on Monday, the user has eight calendar days - starting Tuesday - to work on their laptop. Therefore, this user can work on their laptop through Tuesday of the following week.

After successfully downloading to the laptop, a message will be displayed indicating the last day the laptop can be used before the user must upload. For example, the message will read: "Monday, February 12, 2001 is your LAST DAY to use the laptop before you must UPLOAD. Press Enter to continue…" A similar message will also appear when logging in to Cornerstone on the laptop.

On the last day that the laptop can be used prior to uploading, the message will warn users: "Today is your LAST DAY to use the laptop before you must UPLOAD. You will have no other choices tomorrow except to UPLOAD."

After the last day, users attempting to log in to Cornerstone on the laptop will receive the message: "You will only be able to UPLOAD now!"

Once information has been downloaded to the laptop, only the user who downloaded the information can log on to the laptop. If another user attempts to log in to Cornerstone, the following message will be displayed, with the NAME and ID completed: "NAME (ID number) is the only person authorized to use the laptop at this time. Please log out."

After downloading a participant's information onto the laptop, it is possible that a specific field may be updated both at the agency site and on the laptop. In the event that this should occur, when the upload process is performed from the laptop to the agency site's server, the updated information on the laptop will replace the information that was updated at the site. The information that is overridden will be reported on the Laptop Upload Exceptions Report (HSPR0406), which will print automatically.

On the Program Information (PA15) screen for the auto terminated participant, the "Program Status" field is changed from "A" (active) to "T" (terminated) with the termination date being the date that the Cornerstone system auto terminated the participant. The "Termination Reason" field lists the system-generated reason codes of "16" (automated termination) when a participant has reached the scheduled termination date or "15" (two months no FI pick-up) when a participant has not picked up their food instruments (FIs) for more than two months.

9.12 Case Management Category Updates and Auto Termination

The Case Management category updates and termination processing evaluates all participants that have a status of "A" (active), "E" (eligible), or "N" (new All Kids) in either the Family Case Management (FCM) or Healthy Families Illinois (HFI) programs. It automatically updates the participant category and terminates the participant, if appropriate, based on information about the participant, such as the category code, EDC date, delivery date (and the relationship among these dates), and the group relationships. The category updates and automatic termination procedures run automatically during the EOD process.

The table on the next two pages details the conditions that cause the update, the participant's group relationship, and the resulting changes. This process does not affect Prenatal and postpartum records from previous pregnancies.

The auto termination procedure changes the participant's information in the "Program Status" field on the Program Information (PA15) screen from "A" (active) to "T" (terminated) with the termination date being the date that the Cornerstone system auto terminated the participant. The "Termination Reason" field lists the system-generated reason code of "16" (automated termination). The auto termination procedure generates the Case Management Program Category Code Changes by Participant (HSPR0712) report. (Please refer to Chapter 11 "Reports" under "11.7.9 Case Management Program Code Category Changes by Participant (HSPR0712)" for more information.)

Status Conditions that Cause the Update Group Relationship Change Made

Terminate the program record with reason "16" (automated termination).

Eligible If category is "P" or "T20P" AND the program record has not been updated in the last 60 days and there is not a prenatal record for this participant. N/A Terminate the program record with reason "16" (automated termination).
Eligible If category is "I" or "T20I" AND the program record has not been updated in the last 60 days and there is not a birth record for this participant. N/A Terminate the program record with reason "16" (automated termination).

NOTES:

  1. If an infant or child is terminated by any of the rules listed above, and the only other person in the group relationship is an active guardian, then the guardian's program record is also terminated with the reason "16" (automated termination).
  2. If the user activates a pregnant woman and does not enter an Initial Prenatal Data (PA07) screen, or one does not already exist, the participant will terminate that night.
  3. Guardians that are not in a group relationship will be terminated. If the user activates a participant as a guardian, be sure to establish a Participant Group Relationships (PA06) screen with the other group members. It is important to note that the group members must all have a status of "A" (active), "E" (eligible), or "N" (new All Kids) IN THE SAME PROGRAM. If the infant is active in case management and the guardian is active in HFI, the group relationship will not "count" and the guardian will be terminated.

9.13 Re-indexing Screen (AD12)

Overview

  • Used to execute a procedure that recreates specific files that are associated with the Cornerstone tables. The tables have been separated into logical groupings to facilitate this procedure. The user can select one or all of these groupings to re-index by pressing the space bar to place an "X" next to the group(s) to be re-indexed.
  • The time it takes to re-index these groups varies, depending on the size of the tables. This process can be set to run "on line," which is immediate, or set to occur later as part of the end of day process.

NOTE: Since the re-indexing process requires all users to log out of the Cornerstone system and is a time consuming process, agencies should perform the re-index offline as part of the end of day process. Staff can wait for the tables to re-index automatically, as described below, or can re-index some or all of the groups, as necessary (i.e., users notice obvious index problems, or the Central Office or Cornerstone support staff suggest re-indexing).

  • The Cornerstone system automatically re-indexes all tables during the end of day processing after eight calendar days, regardless of whether the connection was successful. The "Re-index Ran" column shows the last date each group of tables was re-indexed. (The user can specify the day of the week on which the automated re-indexing process will occur on the Clinic Administrative Data (AD14) screen.)
  • The re-indexing process prints the Cornerstone Re-indexing Report (HSPR0408). This should be checked for possible error messages.

NOTE: All users must be logged out of the Cornerstone system when the re-index process is run.

Step by Step Instructions

  1. Press F6 Edit to edit.
  2. The cursor should be in the "Run!" column of the screen. Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the table group to be re-indexed.
  3. Press the space bar to select the highlighted table group. When a group is selected, an "X" is displayed in the "Run!" column.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 above until all the table groups to be re-indexed have an "X" in the "Run!" column.
    • If a group of tables has been selected in error, use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the appropriate group. Press the space bar to remove the "X" from the "Run!" column.
  5. After all of the groups to be re-indexed are selected, press F4. The "About Re-index" pop-up window will be displayed, stating "You can run re-index now or as part of the End of Day. Do you want to run the Reindex Process now?" Highlight either "NOW" or "EOD" by using Tab or the arrow keys, and press Enter to select.
    • If "NOW" is selected, the re-index process will begin. A status bar will display the progress of the re-index process.
    • If "EOD" is selected, the pop-up window will be removed. The user will remain on the Re-indexing Screen (AD12).
    • When the re-index process is run, the Cornerstone system will print the Cornerstone Re-indexing Report (HSPR0408). (Please refer to Chapter 11 "Reports" under "11.37 Cornerstone Re-indexing Report (HSPR0408)" for more information.)
    • If the Cornerstone system encounters any errors during the re-indexing process, this report will list the name of the file and an error message describing why the file was not re-indexed (see step 6).
    • If no errors are encountered, the report will state that the process was successful.
  6. When error messages are listed, contact the Cornerstone Service Desk® at (866) 7 91-4554.
    • A common problem when re-indexing is a lack of hard drive space on the local workstation. In this case, the following message will be displayed: "There is not enough space on this workstation for this process. Please reduce the number of tables or try to run this process on another workstation." The Cornerstone Service Desk should be contacted in this instance, as well. With assistance, staff can re-index using the network hard drive space.

9.16 Screen Security (AD16)

Overview

  • Used by the site supervisor to establish/set the level of security access to staff who use the Cornerstone system. The employee's basic access to Cornerstone screens is determined by default. Screens not assigned to an employee may be added within the guidelines built into the Cornerstone system.
  • To update and tailor screen security for active users of the Cornerstone system. Within a screen, the site supervisor can set the functions (add, edit, or delete) that the employee may perform based upon the employee's job duties in the site. Inquiry access to the screens assigned to an employee is automatic.

Details

Following the addition of a new employee to the Cornerstone system or a previously terminated employee who is changed to active, the site supervisor assigns the Cornerstone system access for each employee. Screen security access should only be given to an employee based upon the employee's job duties and responsibilities. Access to screens and functions enabled on screens (i.e., add, edit, delete) should only reflect what is needed for the employee to do their job. All screen access assignments made by the local agency are subject to review by the Department.

There are two categories of screen security access: "Edit" and "All." An employee's initial screen access is "Edit," which is pre-set by the Cornerstone system. The site supervisor can modify the pre-set access to some extent. However, the site supervisor does not have the ability to give a user access to the "All" category. (This category allows access to all four of the WIC functions, as listed below.) The Program Coordinator - WIC, Nutrition Services, is the only one who can give Total WIC Access. This will be determined following submission of a completed Cornerstone Security Access Request via screen, AD30, within the Cornerstone system.

WIC screens have been divided into four subgroups, reflecting four basic functions, as follows:

  • Participant Enrollment (PA03)
  • Medical screens (PA07 through PA11)
  • WIC Assessment (AS02)

9.17 Caseload Reassignment (AD17)

Overview

  • Used by an administrator (supervisor) to assign unassigned participants who have a program record in the Breast and Cervical Cancer Program (BCCP), Early Intervention (EI), Family Case Management (FCM), Healthy Families Illinois (HFI), and/or Healthy Start Case Management (HSCM) to the appropriate case manager. All FCM participants must be assigned to a case manager.
  • Used to assign a participant to multiple Case Managers/Service Coordinators with different roles (CM, EI, BCCP, etc.) at the same time. A record will appear for each program in which the participant is enrolled.
  • Used to change a participant's case manager.
  • Used to display a case manager's current caseload.
  • Reassignment of a case manager's entire caseload to another case manager may be accomplished on this screen. Groups (families) can easily be assigned to the same case manager as well.

Details

The middle window (From Employee Case Assignments) displays the caseload of the employee, from which a case will be moved. The bottom window (To Employee Case Assignments) displays the caseload of the employee to whom a case will be moved.

Entry of "999999999" in the "From" field will bring up a list of participants who are not assigned to a case manager.

Local agency policy will determine how participant caseloads are assigned to the case manager and by whom.

A supervisor who has security access to this screen must complete the Caseload Reassignment (AD17) screen.

When making case management assignments, the Cornerstone system will set the effective date to today's date. When closing case management assignments, the Cornerstone system will set the end date to today's date. Case management assignments are therefore instantaneous.

It is possible for a participant in a group to have a different case manager than another member in the same group.

Step by Step Instructions

  1. In the "From" field, type in the appropriate Cornerstone employee ID number or use F1 Help to display a list of employees. (Please refer to Chapter 2 "System Environment" under "2.4.2 Keyboard Functions" for more information about F1 Help.)

When reassigning, the case(s)/participant(s) will be moved FROM this case manager.

NOTE: To display a list of participants who have not yet been assigned to a case manager, type "999999999" in the "From" field.

  • A list of the participants currently assigned to this case manager will be displayed in the From Employee Case Assignments window (middle). If 9's were entered, the middle window will display all the unassigned participants.
  1. The cursor will move to the "Prog" field. The field is used to specify a program code for filtering participants, if desired. To filter cases, use F1 Help to display a list of program IDs and choose the appropriate program.
  2. Press Enter to go to the "To" field. Type in the appropriate Cornerstone employee ID number OR use F1 Help to display a list of employees who have an active program record on the Employee Information (AD15) screen. When reassigning, the case(s)/participant(s) will be moved TO this case manager.
    • A list of the participants currently assigned to this case manager will be displayed in the To Employee Case Assignments window (bottom).

NOTE: The Cornerstone system will not allow the user to enter the same employee ID in the "From" and the "To" fields.

  1. Press F6 Edit to edit and the From Employee Case Assignments window will be activated with the first participant highlighted.
  2. Use the up and down arrow keys and/or Pg Up and Pg Dn to highlight the participant to be assigned and press Enter to select that participant. The Cornerstone system will move the participant from the From Employee Case Assignments window to the To Employee Case Assignments window of the screen.
    • When the "From" field contains a single case manager, it is possible to assign all of the participants in the middle window to the case manager in the "To" field by pressing Tab until "All" is highlighted and then pressing Enter.
  3. If a participant to be assigned is in a group, a message "Reassign all participants with this Group ID?" will be displayed when the participant has been highlighted.
    • If the user answers "Y" for Yes, the Cornerstone system will check to see if any of the other participants in the group have current case manager assignments.
    • If other members of the group have other case manager assignments and the case manager is NOT either the employee in the "From" field or the employee in the "To" field, the Cornerstone system will ask "Participants in this Group have different managers; reassign anyway?"
    • If the user answers "Y" for Yes, the Cornerstone system will correctly close any case manager assignments that other group members may have before making the new assignment.
    • If the user answers "N" for No to either of the prompts described above, only the original participant selected for assignment will be assigned to the new case manager.
  4. Repeat this procedure for all participants to be assigned to this case manager.

NOTE: If a participant has been selected and moved in error, press Tab to go to the bottom window, use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the participant and press Enter to select. This will move the participant back to the middle window. To clear the bottom window of all participants who were just moved to that window (i.e., to move them all back to the middle window), press Tab until "None" is highlighted, then press Enter.

  1. Press F4 to save the screen. A message "Are you sure?" will be displayed, confirmation of the reassignments. Type "Y" for Yes to save or "N" for No to cancel.

9.19 Schedule Closed Dates (AD19)

Overview

  • Used to build holidays, administrative days, and closed dates and times into the clinic (site) Master Schedule and/or individual clinic (site) and class schedules.
  • Used to add closed dates and times to existing schedules created on the Clinic Schedules (AD04) screen.
  • Used to edit or delete existing closed dates and times.

Step by Step Instructions

The "Master" Schedule (schedule ID = "00") is for the local site's hours of operation. Therefore, any dates or times that are closed in the Master Schedule apply automatically to all of the individual clinic and class schedules. Because of the Cornerstone system's flexibility, it is possible to close dates and times within each individual schedule, without impacting the other individual schedules. The Schedule Appointment (SC02) and Class Schedule (SC03) screens will identify the open/closed time frames. The user will be able to schedule participants for an appointment or class on days where the Master Schedule contains closed times that do not overlap the appointment or class times.

  1. In the "Schedule Name" field, use Pg Up and Pg Dn to scroll through the records to select the appropriate schedule or press F1 Help. (Please refer to Chapter 2 "System Environment" under "2.4.2.1 Function Keys" for more information about F1 Help.)
