Forms on Foster Family Website after Client Discharge
Once children are discharged from foster care, they no longer show on the foster family website. However, there are still forms that the family needs to complete and submit. We cannot delay the child's discharge because of billing and other forms that the caseworkers need to complete which are triggered by the discharge date. Could the configurator have an option where select forms stay accessible to families for up to 30 days following discharge?

Making extended reach more user friendly for us
It would help us out so much if we were able to create an incident report or a safety hold from the progress notes. I have asked before instead of someone seeing if it could be done the answer was just no. The way technology is set up and has evolve, I doubt if it is impossible to generate. I have worked with other software and I know it's possible. We have to track out clients behaviors and it just make since to do so.
It will also be great if we were able to group print all the information…

staff webpage
Allow staff to have a web page, where they can upload their due items and other expiring items as well. It will also be good for onboarding staff to upload required documents, sign acknowledgements, etc.,

preview changes you make in configurator before saving them.
It would be nice to see how changes made on the configurator will look in the compliance tab before saving them and having them affect providers.

Placement changes with start / end times
If a respite placement is not starting until 4pm on Monday, we don't want the system to change the child's placement UNTIL 4PM on Monday. Right now, the child's placement changes too soon and leaves the foster home without access to the child in the FFW. Please allow start/end times for placement changes.

Allow Workspace Customization
It would be great if our workers could modify their workspace on eR. It is overwhelming to see the long list of items due and past due on our workspace. Our workers don't necessarily need to see items that are due in 45 days. If each box/area on the user's workspace could have the option to minimize and maximize based on their own preference, that would be super awesome. It would also be nice to be able to move the boxes around so different sections could be in different places depending on what the worker wants to see at the…

Add an "Add Vehicle/ Pet Button" to Family Website
We currently have to have a separate activity run in order for a foster home to notify their workers of a vehicle or pet change. It would be a helpful addition if there was a way to allow families to add vehicles or pets like our workers can.
An additional feature related to this would be to allow them to "remove" a listed "active" vehicle or pet from their home as well and provide the related information as to when they were removed as well.

ability to rename docs generated in extended reach. the docs generated in er are named randomly with letters and numbers.
It would be great to be able to rename file/docs generated in extended reach. I see letter number combinations that are not relevant to dates, and other more intuitive ways I would generally use to organize docs.
It would be a time saver not to have to download and save a doc generated in extended reach in order to rename it and upload it again into extended reach.10 votes -
Undo for eR Inbox
SWs who need to move dozens of files from their eR Inbox to the appropriate Compliance item occasionally slip up; They would love an option in the eR Inbox to UNDO LAST ACTION, or something to that effect. Otherwise, the item disappears from the inbox, and you have to download it from the item, delete the wrong compliance item, re-email it, open the case, attach again. Would save a lot of time.

Allow Custom Form to be hidden after file is generated
Would like to see an option when using the custom form builder for "Hide Custom Form after File is Generated". The worker will fill out the custom form placeholder, then generates the word document file which pulls over all of the information they have entered and submits for approval/com[letes. The custom form that they have filled out will be hidden after they generate the word document file.

Allow more than one attachment when sending emails via the Family Web
Allow users to send multiple attachments when sharing information via the Family Web to reduce the number of posts families need to review when agencies are making announcements or during processes like renewals and amendments

Monthly Reminder Email Documentation
It would be great to have the monthly reminder email to foster families be copied into the correspondence of their file. This would alleviate the need for it to be cc'd to a worker who then files it in to the correspondence. Maybe it could be set up that it cc's a worker's eR email and auto populates each family's case ID so that it automatically files it. Thanks for considering!

Search bar for file as opposed to drop box only
Currently there Is only a Dropbox option when searching the case file on ER. It would be nice to have a search box option, where you can begin to type the name of the form you are looking for and It would pop up. It would be faster too. Especially when looking for a form or fie that may not yet have been generated. Instead of scrolling through the list several times trying to find it, you could just type it in and If it is there it will pop up, if not it wont.

Add an area to type a message to go along with reports emailed.
When emailing quarterly reports with treatment plans, in order to request the social worker to sign, it is necessary to email from outside of ER because there is no way to type a message when emailing directly from ER.

Allowance for cases discharged from pre-placement visits to be placed back on the pending referral list
When referrals are opened to a pre-placement visit and then subsequently discharged, there is no option for them to be placed back onto the pending referral list. We have children who often go this route and it is mandated by licensing that we attempt a pre-placement visit for all children referred. So when a pre-placement case is discharged, the only option I know of is to re-enter the referral information. At one time there was an option under discharge to place them back on the referral list, but I have not seen this in a while. Thank you!

Modify staff compliance tabs
Our agency would like to ability to modify compliance tabs for different staff types- similar to how we can modify compliance tabs based on provider types. For example, our agency is realizing that we have trainings that are required for foster care workers that might not be required for adoption workers, but in order for the training to be on the compliance tab for foster care workers it also has to be on the compliance tab for adoption workers- which would leave a "red light" for the adoption worker.

Allow email alerts in eR work with Foster Family Website
Currently, the email alerts that you create in "Email Alerts" do not work with the foster family website. We are needing this for individual reports that are done on the Foster Family website to go to specific people in our organization. As of now, it is all or none, so only 1 person would get all submissions of the FFW.

Show Alerts on Home Page (and Mobile App Notifications) vs. just Email
Give users the option (on User Preferences screen) to have email alerts appear on their home page vs. receiving an email.
Alerts could be dismissed or an alert history could be maintained.
Support browser-based/mobile app notifications for events such as when a report is ready to review + approve.
