What's New in AWARDS - April & May 2024
Breadcrumbs Added to More AWARDS Pages/Modules for Easier Navigation
Breadcrumbs show the click path you’ve taken within a module. While many AWARDS pages already include a breadcrumb path, some older AWARDS pages have not. We have now added breadcrumbs to pages in client record-related modules like Progress Notes, Group Notes, Reception Desk, Contacts Logs, Entitlements, Nightlight Absences, and more. The last breadcrumb is a clickable link that takes you back to the beginning screen in the module - for most, it's where you make a client selection. This will give you a quick route to choosing another client to work with their records within the same module without having to reroute through the global navigation menu again.
FormBuilder - Display All Question/Answer Value Options
On FormBuilder forms, for radio button fields, checkboxes, or selection lists, preview, and printable modes currently only show the selected options. Many of you have requested that we display all the options with the selection indicated, which would better mimic a paper form and show the options that have not been selected. Forms that have any of these types of fields (radio buttons, checkboxes, selection lists) will now have an option on the screen for “Expand Options”. If the form does not contain one of these field types, then this option will not be present. You can set that to show all the options and print that way. In FormBuilder Configuration, we have added the ability to set "yes" as the default for any form so users wouldn’t have to set that manually on each form. The option: When displaying this form in report mode or print mode, display all options values? should be set to "Yes" if the default should be so. On the form itself, users can switch that to hide the extra options and only show the answer values selected.
Staff Event Titles on the Calendar Can Now Be Standardized!
For Staff Events on the Calendar, agencies can use a new ListBuilder called “Staff Event Types” to configure a list of event types for staff events. Then, users will have a drop-down menu of options to select when scheduling a Staff Event, including an “Other” option (when enabled) which will include the ability to type in a title if the list doesn’t include what they need.
Pin Your Favorite/Most Used AWARDS Modules and Forms
We are excited to introduce the AWARDS “Favorites” feature! This is a convenient way for you to access your most-used modules and forms. At the top of the left-side global navigation menu, you’ll now see an option called Favorites. Select the star icon next to your most used “favorite” modules or forms and those will be added as shortcuts to your Global Navigation Favorites. Some things to keep in mind:
- Your favorites will appear in a single alphabetized list
- Your list of favorited items may vary depending on the program you've selected drop-down
- You can only pin favorites for yourself
- There is no audit trail for pinning favorites
- Pinned favorites will follow existing permissions, so you can only pin modules/forms you currently have access to
