Cúram Enterprise Framework
Dynamic Evidence
PO06625, WorkItem:174836 - Prevent a case worker from effective dating an evidence before the business start date of an evidence
Issue Description:
The dynamic evidence infrastructure currently allows a caseworker to create a succession where the effective date is earlier than the business start date of the evidence being updated.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as Admin
- Create a new dynamic evidence type called Earnings
- Associate this dynamic evidence type with an Integrated Case
- Login as Caseworker
- Register a person.
- Create an Integrated Case of the type used in Admin for Earnings evidence
- Create an Earning evidence. (Current date)
- Activate the Evidence
- Open the list of active evidence. The period starts from the case start date.
- Edit the earning evidence record and set the effective date in the past.
- Click on Save.
Resolution:
The dynamic evidence infrastructure has been updated to include a validation preventing a caseworker from specifying an effective date earlier than the business start date if a business start date exists on the evidence. This brings the behavior of dynamic evidence maintenance in line with that of static evidence.
To minimize impact, the validation will not be thrown if existing active evidence with an effective date earlier than the business start date is corrected. It will be thrown if a caseworker continues to edit a piece of pre-existing in-edit evidence on the system.
The validation that has been added is configurable and it's on by default. Its message identifier is as follows:
- infrastructuralvalidation.err_controller_effective_date_before_business_
start_date|a|.
PO05235, PO06727, WorkItem:214679 - Loading DynEvdDomain.xml on a cluster environment results in error DynEvdDomain.xml not found which could prevent users from using Dynamic Evidence pages
Issue Description:
The DynEvdDomain.xml is an XML representation of all the Dynamic Evidence domain definitions, and is generated from the Dynamic Evidences on a system. When servers are starting up in a cluster environment each node will trigger loading the DynEvdDomain.xml resource into the APPRESOURCE table. In any scenario which requires reading the domain definitions during execution, it may result in an error stating that the DynEvdDomain.xml resource was not found. This is because each server on the cluster modifies the DynEvdDomain.xml resource when starting up and for a period the resource may be inaccessible.
As a result of the resource being unavailable, this could prevent users from being able to use any Dynamic Evidence page in the application until the server is restarted.
User Interface Impact: Yes (Dynamic Evidence pages may not render.)
Steps to Reproduce:
- A user attempts to load a dynamic evidence page which gets called from a cluster node that is in the middle of rebooting.
- Once the request hits the server, it fails to initialise and an error is thrown - DynEvdDomain.xml not found.
Resolution:
The code responsible for loading the DynEvdDomain.xml resource into the APPRESOURCE table has been modified to first attempt to read the resource from the database. If the resource already exists, it is then compared to the generated domains. If there is no difference to the stored domains, it will not be reloaded. Only if there is a difference will the resource be reloaded onto the table. This will prevent the error caused by the resource being inaccessible during the startup of a clustered node.
PO07804, WorkItem:231333 - The APIs for PDC Evidence display show the current evidence at the bottom of the list
Issue Description:
A previous enhancement - New Evidence APIs for PDC Evidence display - introduced three new APIs on the PDCPerson façade for listing evidence associated with a Person:
- PDCPerson.listCurrentParticipantEvidenceByTypes
(PersonAndEvidenceTypeList) - PDCPerson.listParticipantEvidenceByTypes
(PersonAndEvidenceTypeList) - PDCPerson.searchParticipantEvidenceByDateRange
(SearchParticipantEvidenceByRangeKey)
However, the APIs incorrectly returned open (no end dated) entries last instead of first, which was the intention.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- For customers who availed of and are using these new APIs:
- Register a Person.
- Register three new pieces of evidence, with one open-ended.
- Go to the Evidence tab, and then the Evidence Group.
- Currently active evidence shows last in the list when it should be first.
Resolution:
The APIs have now been updated to produce the desired behaviour. The evidence will now show in the correct order.
EVIDENCE MAINTENANCE
PO07819, WorkItem:237073 - Discarding an In-edit Evidence causes an unhandled server exception to be thrown
Issue Description:
An un-handled server exception is thrown when a user attempts to discard in-edit evidence where the underlying evidence descriptor does not have a participantID set. This cannot ordinarily arise through the standard evidence maintenance functionality, but could arise if data is migrated to Merative SPM from a legacy system without a participantID specified.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Register a Person.
- Create an Integrated Case.
- Add evidence to the Integrated Case, but do not activate it.
- In order to reproduce the issue, the participantID on the underlying evidence descriptor needs to be set to null.
- Now attempt to discard the evidence from the evidence workspace.
- Issue: an un-handled server exception is thrown.
Resolution:
The Evidence API has been made more robust and is now able to handle a blank participantID when evidence is being discarded.
WorkItem:237075 - An unhandled server exception occurs on creating evidence without entering a participant
Issue Description:
An issue existed across the out-of-the-box dynamic evidence types whereby the Case Participant to be captured was
a) Not marked as mandatory
b) Not defaulted to blank
Marking a field as mandatory is the easiest way of ensuring that it is not left blank when a record is being created through the user interface.
Defaulting the Case Participant drop-down to blank is the best way of ensuring that the wrong participant is not saved when a dynamic evidence record is being created through the user interface, i.e. the caseworker must select the correct participant from the drop-down.
Validations were previously added to the meta-data of a sub-set of dynamic evidence types to validate against the Case Participant being left blank. However, these were not applied to all types and the behaviour was inconsistent.
For evidence types where the validation was not applied, this resulted in unhandled server exception errors during creation of the evidence.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Related WorkItems: 220380, 105444
Steps to Reproduce: Refer to the steps to reproduce provided in the related work items for examples of how to reproduce this issue.
Resolution:
The following corrections have been made to the latest version of dynamic evidence to ensure that a case participant is entered when required so that errors no longer occur when evidence is created:
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory
The Case Participant drop-down field has been marked as mandatory. In instances where 'All Panels' has been specified in the meta-data, i.e. a Case Participant can be selected in a drop-down, a participant can be searched for, or a new participant created, it is not possible to mark the drop-down as mandatory.
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank
For those fields where the Case Participant has been marked as mandatory, the behaviour of the drop-down has been updated to default the field to blank. This means that the caseworker must select the correct case participant before saving the record. If a case participant is not selected, a validation 'Case Participant must be entered' is displayed.
When a dynamic evidence types is created for a case participant, the case participant field appears as read-only on the modify screen.
Note: Taking on these changes requires an insertion of the updated lob data into the database. The associated upgrade steps are outlined in the Merative SPM Upgrade Guide in the chapter entitled 'Correcting metadata for existing dynamic evidence types'.
WorkItem:237078 - Dynamic evidence not recognising end date of a record in a succession
Issue Description:
When an evidence record of a particular type was not end dated manually by a caseworker but was instead succeeded by a new evidence record of another type, the caseworker was subsequently prevented from creating a new evidence record of the original type.
Dynamic Evidence did not recognize records in a succession as separate contiguous records. In essence, the dynamic evidence maintenance processing did not recognize the effective from date of the next record in the succession minus one day as the virtual, or notional end date of a record in that succession. This led to problems when creating new evidence, where validations were sometimes thrown stating that a record already existed for the period of the new record. This was due to the system recognizing the records in the succession as being open-ended.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
An example of this issue occurs in the Healthcare Reform Solution for Tax Filing Status evidence. When a Tax Filing Status evidence record of a particular type was not end dated manually by a caseworker but was instead succeeded by a new Tax Filing Status evidence record of another type, the caseworker was subsequently prevented from creating a new evidence record of the original type.
The caseworker originally recorded the individual as a 'tax filer'. Circumstances changed and the individual became a 'non-filer'. The caseworker updated the existing 'tax filer' record and changed the type to 'non-filer' and set the effective date of the change. Subsequently the individual left the household and the caseworker end-dated their Tax Filing Status evidence record. Sometime later the individual rejoined the household as a tax filer. The caseworker was unable to create a new Tax Filing Status evidence record of type 'tax filer'. A duplicate validation was thrown stating a Tax Filing Status evidence record of type 'tax filer' already exists.
This was happening due to dynamic evidence processing not recognising the virtual end date of a record in a succession. The virtual or notional end date is the effective from date of the next record in the succession minus one day.
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a tax filer with income of $20,000, and an application date of 8/7/2017.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Edit the Tax Filing Status record of 'Tax Filer' and set effective date to 9/1/2017 and change type to 'Non-Filer'.
- Apply changes.
- End date the Tax Filing Status record of ‘Non-Filer’ to 9/20/2017.
- Apply changes.
- Create a new Tax Filing Status record of type ‘Non Filer’, with start date 9/21/2017.
- Apply changes.
- End date the Tax Filing Status record of ‘Non-Filer’ to 9/24/2017.
- Apply changes.
- Create a new Tax Filing Status record of type ‘Tax Filer’, with start date 9/25/2017.
- The following validation error is displayed and prevents the user from creating the new Tax Filing Status record: ‘A Tax Filing Status record of ‘Tax Filer’ already exits for this Participant for the same period’.
Resolution:
Dynamic evidence processing has been updated to recognize the virtual, or notional end date of each record in a succession thereby building up a list of contiguous records against which the creation of any new record of the same type will be validated. The caseworker can now create a new evidence record of the same type as one that has been succeeded.
WorkItem:239138 - Inconsistent Label and Cluster Titles on Participant Data Case Dynamic Evidence Types
Issue Description:
Case Participant label and cluster titles are inconsistent on Participant Data Case dynamic evidence types. Label/cluster titles are missing on some and referred to as Participant on others.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce: N/A
Resolution:
To promote consistency, label and cluster titles have been updated and are now displayed as 'Case Participant' where appropriate. Only the latest version of the evidence type has been updated.**Technical:**Participant Data Case Evidence Types

Integrated Case Management
PO07512, WorkItem:214413 - Meeting minutes wizard displaying gender code rather than description
Issue Description:
When a case worker is using the meeting minute wizard to capture meeting minutes, one of the optional steps they can do, is provide information about users that have participated in that meeting. This information is captured in the Attendance page in the wizard. When the attendee was selected using the 'Participant/User' drop down, information such as the participants name, their role and gender is displayed. The gender was however displaying as a code, rather than using recognisable terms, such as, 'Male' or 'Female'.
**User Interface Impact: **No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log in as a caseworker.
- Register a person.
- Create a new Integrated Case.
- Open the newly created Integrated Case.
- Select the 'Contact' tab.
- Click on the 'Meeting Minutes' link.
- Select the 'Record Meeting Minutes' button.
- When the wizard opens, click 'Next'.
- Enter all the mandatory fields on the 'Details', 'Notes' and 'Decisions' pages.
- Click 'Next'.
- Click 'Next" until the step 4 'Attendance' section.
- Select the 'Participant/User' drop-down.
- The information shown contained in the drop-down contains participant details, followed by the codes 'SX1' or 'SX2', where 'SX1' and 'SX2' refer to gender terms 'Male' and 'Female', respectively.
Resolution:
This issue has been resolved. Now the participant information displayed in the drop-down contains the correct gender terms, 'Male' and 'Female'.
PO07695, WorkItem:225540 - Cannot overlap special caution dates after disabling validation "specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_and_type_
overlaps_in_specified_date_range|a|"
Issue Description:
If an agency requires that special cautions of the same type overlap for the same period, it is not sufficient for an administrator to disable only the following validation:
- specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_and_type_overlaps_in_
specified_date_range|a|
**User Interface Impact: **No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log on as SysAdmin, then search for and disable the following validation: specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_and_type_overlaps_
in_specified_date_range|a| - Log on as a caseworker and open one of the default Smith cases.
- Click the Issues and Proceedings tab, then create a special caution, for example, Safety Alert, Victim Tendency, 3/11/2018 - 3/22/2018, and save it.
- Create another special caution, for example, Safety Alert, Victim Tendency, 3/21/2018 - 4/12/2018.
- Attempt to save the special caution. A validation error is displayed because the dates overlap.
Resolution:
To enable special cautions of the same type to overlap for the same period, also disable the following validations:
- specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_and_type_overlaps_
in_specified_date_range|a| - specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_and_type_overlaps_
in_specified_date_range|a|1 - specialcaution.err_specialcaution_xrv_category_code_and_type_

ELIGIBILITY & ENTITLEMENT
PO05523, WorkItem:101808 - Following multiple reassessments of overpayments the result is incorrectly reflected on the Payment Correction case
Issue Description:
Multiple changes occurred on a case which resulted in a series of overpayments. The last of these overpayments was incorrectly created in the Payment Correction case as an underpayment and the amount on the Payment Correction context panel was incorrect.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Choose a product which uses a CREOLE ruleset, pay in advance delivery pattern and with monthly frequency.
- Create a Product Delivery Case with certification start & end dates 01/Mar/2015 - 28/08/2015.
- Add and activate evidence such that the client is eligible for payment. Activate the case.
- After the case is assessed for the first time, there will be a Financial Component created with start and end dates as 01/03/2015 - 28/08/2015.
- Run the Generate ILI batch with processingToDate as 01/May/2015.
- This will process the first 3 months payments and there will be 3 ILIs created until 31/05/2015.
- Now modify the case start date to 01/05/2015 and trigger the reassessment.
- After the reassessment, an overpayment will be created for the amount paid for the first 3 months and with NomineeOverUnderPayment start & end dates as 01/Mar/2015 till 31/May/2015.
- Now run the Generate ILI one more time with processingToDate as 01/June/2015.
- This will generate the ILI for the month of June.
- Now end the case with endDate as 25/05/2015 and trigger the reassessment.
- The overpayment was correctly represented on the case but clicking on the case reference number to open the associated Payment Correction Case highlighted some problems.The Payment Correction case was an underpayment and the amount shown on the context panel of the Payment Correction case was incorrect.
Resolution:
This issue is no longer occurring. Multiple overpayments throughout the lifetime of the case are correctly represented on both the case itself and on the Payment Correction case(s).
WorkItem:229374 - Creation of financial components should consider objective tag values during the roll-up of virtual components
Issue Description:
When financial components are being created from case decisions, contiguous components with the following matching criteria are merged or rolled up.
- Concern
- Objective
- Product Delivery Pattern
- Related Reference
- Value (Objective)
When a financial product is configured, the associated rule-set will have objective tags governing how much gets paid daily, weekly, monthly etc.
For products paid weekly, where clients can be certified for less than a week, organizations would typically have a daily amount that would constitute the daily tag, and then a weekly amount (tag) that would be the daily amount multiplied by either 5 or 7. If the clients are always certified for full weeks, there may be no daily tag at all but only a weekly tag indicating what clients get paid weekly.
For products paid monthly, where clients can be paid for part of a month, the organization may have daily, weekly and monthly tags. The weekly amount would typically be a multiple of the daily amount, with the monthly amount being the daily amount multiplied by 30 (or possibly by the number of days in the month).
It is also possible to configure a product where the monthly tag is a fixed amount (flat rate for each month) and the daily amount (tag) is calculated as the monthly amount divided by the number of days in that month. With this configuration, the daily amount in two consecutive months like February and March would be different. Previously the rollup of financial components did not consider this type of product configuration. For a case certified from the middle of February to the middle of March, for example, the above rolling up logic means the components for February and March are rolled up since they have the same monthly value, when they shouldn't be rolled up as the calculated daily value will differ for February and March.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Configure a certifiable financial product.
- Associate a rule-set with it which has two tags, daily and monthly.
- Ensure that the daily amount (tag) is calculated as the monthly amount divided by the number of days in that month.
- Create a product delivery for the new product, certifying it from the middle of February to the middle of March.
- Add a monthly amount as Income evidence on the product delivery.
- Approve and activate the case.
- Issue: Only one financial component is created using the daily tag amount for February rather than two separate component one for February, for its daily tag amount and one for March for its daily tag amount. The components were incorrectly rolled together as the tag value was not considered in the rollup.
Resolution:
The reported issue has been resolved by including the objective tag values as part of the rolling up criteria, not just the objective values. As these will be different in the scenario outlined above, the virtual components for February and March will be recognised as different, no rollup will occur and the correct financial component amount will be calculated for both February and March.
EVIDENCE MANAGEMENT
WorkItem:123096 - Mechanism to allow a customer to calculate their own evidence start date
Issue Description
For certain evidence types, the period column that is displayed on evidence list pages might not reflect the true business period for the evidence. For most evidence types, the start of the business period is configured as a start date on the evidence. For evidence where the start of the business period isn't configured, either the evidence does not contain a business start date or the evidence contains a start date that has not been defined as the business start date. In such scenarios, the system uses the case start date to represent the start of the business period on evidence list pages. The case start date might not represent the true business start date, and customers might want to default to an alternative date instead.
**User Interface Impact: **No
Steps to reproduce
- Log on as a caseworker.-
- Register a person, Jane Doe, with a birth date of '1/1/1970'.
- Click the Evidence tab.
- The period column for both Jane's 'Names' evidence and 'Birth and Death Details' evidence starts from the registration date.
- Customers might prefer that the period column represents Jane's evidence as starting from, for example, Jane's date of birth.
Resolution
A new custom hook has been provided through the EvidencePeriodHook interface that enables customers to configure values that override the business start and end dates in the evidence list pages. For certain evidence types, if the period that is displayed in the evidence list page does not represent the true business period, customers can now overwrite the period to define their own business start date. Customers need to implement the custom hook for evidence types whose business start and end dates they want to override, with each implementation being bound to its respective evidence type.
PO07636, WorkItem:222216 - On creating a static child evidence with a preassociation relationship 'curam.core.sl.infrastructure.struct.ParentList' is not being imported
Issue Description:
Changes made to the evidence generator ServiceLayerImports.xslt stylesheet during 7.0.2.0 resulted in the incorrect removal of the 'curam.core.sl.infrastructure.struct.ParentList' import. This caused issues for customers who had pre-association tags defined, as the generated code for pre-association tags depends on the import being present.
There are no examples of pre-association relationships out-of-the-box, but a description of what they are and when they should be used can be found here in the documentation - https://curam-spm-devops.github.io/wh-support-docs/spm/pdf-documentation\\
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a static child evidence with a pre-association relationship.
- Generate the code and observe the build logs to see see a warning that 'curam.core.sl.infrastructure.struct.ParentList' is not being imported.
Resolution:
This issue is now resolved and 'curam.core.sl.infrastructure.struct.ParentList' is imported correctly.
Technical:
The following import
- 'curam.core.sl.infrastructure.struct.ParentList'
has been reinstated in the
- .\Tools\Generators\EGTools\components\evidence\xsl\
ServiceLayerImports.xslt
static evidence generator stylesheet artifact.
Customers with the following metadata defined for an evidence entity
<Relationships>
<PreAssociation to="AnotherEntityType"/>
</Relationships>
will suffer from this problem.
WorkItem:234258 - If no case participant attribute exists within an evidence hierarchy then the incorrect case participant is returned for any evidence of this type
Issue Description:
An issue existed in the generated code for static evidence types whereby a fallback mechanism was not in place for evidence in a hierarchy structure that contained no case participant attribute. That is, the parent, child, grand-child, and so on, did not contain a case participant attribute. This was causing problems for places in the application that required a case participant value in order to complete successfully, as no case participant was being returned in this scenario. For example, verifications at the product delivery level required a case participant and therefore they were not created for any evidence with no case participant attribute in its hierarchy.
For customers using the Income Support product, an example of this is Shelter Expense and Contributor. These are static evidence types with no case participant attribute in this business object, if product delivery verifications were configured against this evidence, no verifications were created.
Note: this issue does not impact dynamic evidence types.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Set up a product delivery verification for evidence in a hierarchy structure that has no case participant. The evidence may live at the integrated case level, but the verification requirement should be for the associated product delivery.For Income Support customers, Shelter Expense and Contributor can be used to demonstrate this. Otherwise static evidence types with no case participant attribute in the hierarchy.
- Create the necessary cases and add the evidence, parent, child, grand-child etc.
- To view the verifications at the product delivery level, a custom page may need to be added to the tab associated with the product. For Income Support customers, PD_evidenceListVerificationsForCase.uim can be used.
- When viewing the product delivery, the page for listing the verifications should be visible.
- The page should contain the verification that was created for the product delivery, but the issue is that it doesn't.
Resolution:
The evidence generator for static evidence has been updated to provide a fallback mechanism in the above scenario. The functionality now falls back on the case participant role associated with the participant on the evidence descriptor. This ensures the correct case participant is identified.

PO07830, WorkItem:232434 - Incorrect labels displayed for Phone Number and Alternate Phone Number fields in an Insurance Affordability application when JAWS screen reader is used
Issue Description:
When creating an Insurance Affordability application from within the Citizen Portal, on the 'Information About You' page, a user can enter both a Phone Number and Alternate Phone Number. For both fields the phone number is entered into two separate text entry fields, one to capture area code and one to capture phone number.
When the JAWS Screen Reader is being used, a user is able to press the Insert+Ctrl+E keys to display a 'Select an Edit Box' modal for use in selecting fields to edit. In this instance, the labels used for the area code and phone number text entry fields that make up the Phone Number field both use the same label of 'Phone Number' and the user is not able to determine which text entry field is for the area code and which is for the phone number. The same issue also occurs with the Alternate Phone Number field.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open JAWS 18.
- Open IE11.
- Open the Citizen Portal.
- Select to apply for assistance, select to create an account to register in the Citizen Portal, and proceed to create an Insurance Affordability application.
- Select the 'I agree' checkbox on the 'Before We Get Started' page of the application and click 'Next’.
- The 'About You Section' page will open. Click 'Next'.
- The 'Information About You' page will display.
- When the user presses the Insert+Ctrl+E keys to display the 'Select an Edit Box' modal for use in selecting fields to edit, the labels displayed for the area code and phone number text entry fields that make up the Phone Number field both display the same label of 'Phone Number'.
Resolution:
The area code and phone number text entry fields for the 'Phone Number' and 'Alternate Phone Number' fields both now use separate titles and correctly display in the 'Select an Edit Box' modal, making it possible for a user using the JAWS screen reader to differentiate between the two fields.
Technical:
The issue was resolved by adding the following two properties:
- PersonnalDetails.AreaCode.Label=Area Code
- PersonnalDetails.SecondPhoneNumber.AreaCode.Label=Alternate Phone Number Area Code
to the following properties files:
- ../EJBServer/components/HCR/data/initial/blob/prop/HealthCare
CW_V1_Intake_AboutYouPage.properties - ../EJBServer/components/HCROnline/data/initial/blob/prop/About
You/HealthCarePortalAboutYouSubScript_V1_SubScript_AboutYou

- When the user presses the Insert+Ctrl+C keys to display the 'Selectable ARIA controls, comboboxes, listboxes, or treeviews' modal, the labels displayed for the phone number type and alternate phone number type fields both display the same label of 'Type'.
Resolution:
The 'Phone Number Type' and 'Alternate Phone Number Type' fields both now use separate titles and correctly display in the modal, making it possible for a user using the JAWS screen reader to differentiate between the two fields.
PO07829, WorkItem:232505 - Combo boxes in IEG scripts were marked as unlabeled in the JAWS 'Select In Edit Box'
Issue Description:

XML SERVER
PO07422, WorkItem:209377 - Exception thrown by the XML Server when generating a PDF file which contains references to images due to a missing xml-apis-ext.jar
Issue Description:
An exception was thrown by the XML Server when generating a PDF file which contained references to images. This was due a missing JAR called xml-apis-ext.jar. As part of a previous FOP upgrade, the actual FOP deliverable placed classes which were previously delivered in the batik-all.jar file (which is shipped with the product) and moved them into a new JAR called xml-apis-ext.jar. This JAR was not shipped and hence when the rendering of images use case was invoked in the XML Server, the required classes could not be found and the exception occurred.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Modify an XSL template used in the generation of a PDF file to add an <svg> tag into the document. This tag may be used to draw some graphics in a PDF (i.e. such as lines and check boxes as the example below specify).
- An example of this mark up is shown below.
<svg:svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.0" width="0.16in"
height="0.16in" stroke="black">
<svg:rect x="10%" y="20%" width="80%" height="80%" style="fill: none"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="string(.)='true'">
<svg:line x1="10%" y1="20%" x2="90%" y2="100%"/>
<svg:line x1="10%" y1="100%" x2="90%" y2="20%"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="string(.)='1'">
<svg:line x1="10%" y1="20%" x2="90%" y2="100%"/>
<svg:line x1="10%" y1="100%" x2="90%" y2="20%"/>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</svg:svg>
- Generate the PDF using a template containing the specified mark up and an exception will be thrown outlining that the "org/w3c/dom/svg/SVGDocument" and "org/w3c/css/sac/Parser" classes could not be found.
Resolution:
The issue has been resolved by the addition of the missing JAR (xml-apis-ext-1.3.04.jar) into the SDEJ deliverable. This JAR has now been placed into the 'CuramSDEJ/xmlserver' directory and all of the relevant build time and run time scripts have been updated accordingly.

PO07798, WorkItem:231305 - Unable to search for contacts within the contact log of an outcome plan
Issue Description:
Within an outcome plan caseworkers are able to add contacts to a Contact Log. The ability to search for contacts was inadvertently removed from the product preventing case workers from performing a search on historical contacts created within the Contact Log of an outcome plan.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a caseworker.
- Create a new Outcome Plan for a registered person.
- Navigate to the 'Admin' tab within the outcome plan.
- On the 'Contact Log' page, the 'Search' tab is not visible as an inline navigation option alongside the 'All Contacts' tab.

Provider Management
PO05826, WorkItem:144892 - Activating / deactivating a Provider Deduction affects all of the Provider's Deductions, active or inactive
Issue Description:
Activating and deactivating a provider deduction affects all of the provider's deductions, whether they are inactive or active. For example, if two in-active provider deductions exist for a given provider, activating one attempts to activate both. Likewise, if two active provider deductions exist for a provider, deactivating one attempts to deactivate both. As a result, incorrect payments are generated for providers.User Interface Impact: No
Users of CPM Provider Deductions:
Users of CPM Provider Deductions, such as Child Welfare customers, can hit this issue. A Child Welfare scenario outlining how this issue can be encountered is outlined below.
Prerequisites:
- Log in as an administrator.
- Go to Case > Deductions and create a new Liability Repayment applied deduction with key configuration details:
- Prevent Overlapping = No
- Max Deduction Percentage = 100
- Default Percentage = 10
- Action Type = Deduct Remaining
- Go to Case > Product Delivery Case > Provider Placement > Edit Menu > Under 'Automatic Under and Overpayment Case Processing', select 'Create and Activate Payment Correction Case'.
- Go to the Financial tab of Provider Placement, and select 'Add Existing' under Deductions. Add the Liability Deduction just created.
- Configure a legal status that can be set for Ongoing Cases.
- Log in as cpmmanager and enroll a new Provider with the following details:
- Payment Method = Check
- Frequency = Day 1 of every 1 month(s)
- Provider Category = Foster Care Home
- Provider Type = Traditional Foster Care Home
- Physical Capacity & Designated Capacity = 4
- Approve the Provider and add the service 'Traditional Foster Care' with start date as the provider enrollment date.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as ccscaseworker, register a child (child1) and create a case of type 'Ongoing'. Add a legal status for child1 with start date the same date as the provider enrollment date.
- Create a removal and placement (in the newly enrolled provider) for child1 with start date the same date as the provider enrollment date. Run the financial batches (Generate Instruction Line Items & Generate Instruments) with the first day of the following month as the processing date, and confirm that transactions were created on the Provider transaction screen.
- Delete the placement created for child1 earlier; this should create a payment correction case (overpayment). To see the payment correction case, you may need to find the reference number with the financial user.
- Login as cpmmanager and open the Provider.
- Go to Financial > Deductions > New Applied Deduction. Select Provider Payment types as 'Provider Placement', then select the payment correction case.
- Use a rate / percentage of 50, but do not activate the deduction.
- Repeat steps 1 and 3 above for a second child (child2).
- Set up a new applied deduction for the Provider with the payment type as ‘Provider Placement’, using a rate / percentage of 10.
- Activate the second deduction, but do not activate the first.
- Repeat steps 1 and 2 above for a third child (child3).
- Login as cpmmanager, and open the provider. Go to the Deductions tab. Activate the first in-active deduction.
- De-activate the same deduction.
- Run Generate ILI & Generate Instruments with processing date as one month into the future and confirm placement payments at provider transaction screen.
- Run CreateEvidencePlacement with processing date as one month into the future.
- Run ReassessOutstandingCase.
- Run Generate ILI & Instruments with processing date as the current date.
The active deduction will not be applied to the benefit case payment.
Resolution:
It is now possible for a resource manager to manage provider deductions independently. Where multiple deductions have been associated with a provider, the activation or de-activation of one deduction no longer causes other deductions to be incorrectly applied or not applied to payments.
Technical:
The gap in the provider deduction implementation was a missing link between provider deductions and their associated case deduction items. This has now been addressed by the addition of a new link entity, Provider Deduction CDI Link, which has been added to link provider deductions to their associated case deduction items.Note: Taking on this change requires the population of the new ProviderDeductionCDILink entity. The steps for populating this new entity are outlined in the Merative SPM Upgrade Guide in the chapter entitled 'Addition of a new link entity to link provider deductions to their associated case deduction items'.
PO07782, WorkItem:228287 - Estimated Cost is 0.00 when Service Delivery using a delivery type of 'Service Delivery with Eligibility' is first created
Issue Description:
Services can be configured to use a Delivery Type of 'Service Delivery with Eligibility', which is the delivery type used to deliver a service where eligibility for the service needs to be determined and payments in respect of the service are usually issued to a provider. When this type of configuration is used the service is associated to a product and product delivery processing is used to determine eligibility for the service. The estimated cost for the delivery of the service is calculated based upon the rate configured for the service.
When a caseworker creates a Service Delivery that uses a Delivery Type of 'Service Delivery with Eligibility' within a case, the estimated cost is not correctly calculated when the Service Delivery is initially created and remains at $0.00. If the Service Delivery is then edited and saved (with or without making any changes), the estimated cost is then calculated.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an administrator and click the 'Administration Workspace' tab.
- In the Shortcuts Panel, navigate to Provider Management > Services.
- From the 'Services' list page, choose a service (e.g. 'Child Care').
- From the Service home page, click the 'Delivery' tab and choose the 'Edit' option.
- For the delivery type choose 'Service Delivery with Eligibility'.
- For Product, search for a product (e.g. 'Benefit Sample') and click 'Save'.
- Login as a caseworker.
- Register a person and create an integrated case.
- Navigate to the 'Services' tab and create a new service delivery for the service modified above.
- Click on the Service to open the Service Home page and note that the 'Estimated Cost' in the context panel is '$0.00'.
- Edit the Service Delivery from the context panel action menu and click 'Save' (no changes are required); the estimated cost has been updated in the context panel.
- The estimated cost is not calculated when the Service Delivery is created, it remains at $0.00. If you then edit the Service Delivery and save it again without making any changes, the estimated cost is calculated.
Resolution:
The functionality has been updated so that the estimated cost is now calculated and displayed correctly when creating the Service Delivery.
PO07777, WorkItem:229460 - Provider name is overlapping with the reference number when shortcuts menu is open
Issue Description:
Within the context panel for a provider, when the Shortcuts menu is expanded the Provider name overlaps with the reference number when too large a number of characters are used in the name. The web address and email address values also overlap with the content on the right hand side of the context panel when too large a number of characters are used for each of these.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a resource manager.
- Enroll a Provider with a name with a large amount of characters.
- Enter remaining mandatory information and select 'Finish'.
- On the Provider home page open the Contact tab.
- Add the longest allowed web address and email address ensuring to mark both as 'Primary'.
- While on the Provider home page, expand the Shortcuts Panel and verify the Provider name, email and web addresses are overlapping with other elements on the page.
Resolution:
The values for the provider's name, web address and email address will now show an ellipsis in place of any substring that does not fit within the space available. This remains true if the size of the context panel changes, for example if the user expands the Shortcuts menu area.
FINANCIALS
PO06004, WorkItem:148957 - System prevents creation of new Placements (benefit payments) when closed Payment Correction (overpayment) case exists
Issue Description:
The system prevents the creation of a new placement for a provider when there is a closed Payment Correction (overpayment) case for that provider.
When a new placement is created, the system creates deductions to recoup monies on any outstanding liabilities i.e. Payment Correction cases. The error occurs because the system is checking closed Payment Correction cases, for which there are no outstanding liabilities, when attempting to create deductions.
**User Interface Impact: **No
Prerequisites:
- Configure the Liability Repayment deduction to have a max deduction rate of 100 and a minimum deduction rate of 10.
- Add the Liability Repayment deduction to the Provider Placement product.
- Set up the placement service; the fixed rate is $10 daily.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a Merative SPM Resource Manager role.
- Enroll the Provider and create the provider offering.
- Register Test Person1 & create a placement for them.
- Generate a payment.
- Now cancel the placement to generate a payment correction (overpayment) for the full amount of the payment at step 4.
- Register Test Person2 and create a placement for them.
- Apply a deduction against the placement, specifying the percentage as 50%.
- Generate the payment - half of this should get applied against the overpayment.
- Register Test Person3 and create a placement for them.
- Apply a deduction against the placement, specifying the percentage as 50%.
- Generate the payment - half of this should get applied against the overpayment. Note: At this point the overpayment should be fully paid off.
- Search for and close the Payment Correction case.
- Roll the server forward.
- Now set up a new placement.
- Issue: An exception is thrown on the screen.
Resolution:
It is now possible to create a placement for a provider when there is a closed Payment Correction (overpayment) case for that provider. The process to determine whether to apply a deduction no longer includes checking against closed Payment Correction cases.
Technical:
Closed cases are now filtered out of the search for existing outstanding liabilities in the business process that sets up deductions for existing placement product deliveries. Once a liability is closed, there will be no outstanding amount left on it, so there is no need for it to be considered for future deductions.
WorkItem:236663 - When creating a provider deduction, the priority presented on the create screen should be taken as the lowest priority on the system for that provider + 1
Issue Description:
When creating a provider deduction for a given provider, default values are read back on the create deduction page, which includes the priority. It has been found that the priority value is taken as the lowest (i.e. the one with the highest value) priority on the entire Provider Deduction entity, plus one. It should, in fact, be the lowest priority on the Provider Deduction entity for that Provider, plus one. Even though the processing continues to work correctly, because the values are relative to each other, it is somewhat confusing when the values are presented to a case worker.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce: The following are high level steps of how this issue manifests itself:
- Create an ongoing child welfare case for Child A and place them in Provider A.
- Create a second ongoing child welfare case for Child B and place them in Provider A.
- Create a third ongoing child welfare case for Child C and place them in Provider A.
- Create an ongoing child welfare case for Child D and place them in Provider B.
- Create a second ongoing child welfare case for Child E and place them in Provider B.
- Create a third ongoing child welfare case for Child F and place them in Provider B.
- Generate the payments for all of these placements.
- Now cancel the placement for Child C in Provider A; this will generate a liability.
- Also cancel the placement for Child F in Provider B; this will generate a liability.
- Now set up Provider Deductions for Provider A so that their liability can be recouped.
- The default values presented for the first Provider Deduction for Provider A will be have the priority set to 1.
- The default values presented for the second Provider Deduction for Provider A will be have the priority set to 2.
- Now set up Provider Deductions for Provider B so that their liability can be recouped.
- The default values presented for the first Provider Deduction for Provider B will be have the priority set to 3.
- The default values presented for the second Provider Deduction for Provider B will be have the priority set to 4.
**Note: **The default values presented for the Provider Deductions for Provider B should be 1 and 2.
Resolution:
The API that retrieves the default values for the create provider deduction page has been updated to return the lowest priority on the Provider Deduction entity for that specific Provider, plus one. It's important to note that no historical deductions will be affected or will need to be updated.
Supervisor Workspace
PO07217, WorkItem:198952 - Supervisor search results for cases to be reassigned are not displayed correctly
Issue Description:
Previously when the Supervisor opened the Caseworker’s workspace and selected to reassign cases from the Caseworker to a different user, the search result was not presenting the correct list of cases. Where the number of cases assigned to the Caseworker exceeded the value set in curam.db.readmultimax, a list of size equal to this value was returned, but once these were reassigned subsequent searches did not return the remaining list of cases to be reassigned.
User Interface Changed: No
Pre-requisite: In the below scenario a supervisor intends to reassign all of the cases assigned to the caseworker.
- Login as sysadmin.
- Navigate to System Configurations.
- Navigate to Shortcuts menu.
- Navigate to Application Data, Property Administration.
- Search for curam.batch.bulkcasereassignment.deferredprocess.max.processing.count.
- Edit the property and change the value to 2.
- Search for curam.db.readmultimax.
- Edit the property and update the value to 5.
- Click on Publish changes.
- Login as caseworker.
- Search for a person (for example James Smith).
- Create 6 cases for this person.
Steps to reproduce
- Login as a supervisor.
- Navigate to the Team and Workloads application tab.
- Select My Users.
- Select the caseworker user.
- View the Cases option from the navigation bar.
- Click Reassign Cases, which will open up a reassign modal.
- Select a new owner to assign the cases to.
- Select the 'List all cases assigned to user' checkbox.
- Click search.
- The search will return 5 results as per the curam.db.readmultimax parameter.
- Reassign the 5 records displayed, which will be added to the bulk case reassignment batch queue.
- Repeat steps 6 to 9
- No further cases are displayed, the 6th case assigned to the caseworker is not listed and therefore cannot be reassigned.
Resolution:
This issue has been resolved by updating the query which retrieves the cases to be reassigned to correctly consider bulk case reassignment requests. This query now takes into account the cases that have already been reassigned, and the correct number of outstanding available cases is now displayed in the search results.

Appeals
PO07257, WorkItem:200418 - Closing legal action generates unwanted error mails and error messages in the logs
Issue Description
Previously, closing a Legal Action caused unhandled exceptions to appear in the logs and generated unwanted error emails. This was due to CloseCase deferred process not functioning correctly for a Legal Action case type. In the method CloseCase.closeAssociatedRecords, the logic to regenerate financials was always attempted but since legal action cases do not have financials, this resulted in an unhandled exception.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce
- Login as ccscaseworker.
- Create an ongoing case with a few persons.
- Create an external party (court) with Person (judge).
- Make a Petition and a legal petition available for ongoing cases.
- Create legal action using the court and judge and the case persons.
- Close the legal action using for example 'Other' as reason and a comment.
- Look in the curamapplog for the exception.
Resolution
This issue has now been resolved, CloseCase deferred process functions correctly for Legal Action case type. This was achieved by preventing CloseCase.closeAssociatedRecords from regenerating financials for case types that do not have them. It will now regenerate financials for product delivery and liability case types only.
Intelligent Evidence Gathering
PO06595 , WorkItem:173224 - Unknown user displayed in the household income page of an application
Issue Description:
Unknown user displayed in the IEG script when a user has deleted a person from the household on the summary page and then navigated back using navigation panel to Income page in the script.
This is due to the Intelligent Evidence Gathering engine not updating the list of visited pages correctly after an entity has been deleted.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log in to the Merative SPM application as hcrcaseworker.
- Register an adult person and create a new application.
- Fill out the details for the primary person.
- Add an adult spouse to the household and fill out the details for that person.
- Add income for both household members.
- Arrive at the summary page.
- Remove the spouse from the household.
- Click on the "Household Income" section in the navigational panel. Notice a tab is displayed for an unknown person.
Note: If you are a customer that does not use the Healthcare Reform Solution, but have configured Intelligence Evidence Gathering scripts as an Intake mechanism, you can reproduce this scenario by configuring a script which allows a user to enter and delete a top-level entity, such as a Person entity, a child entity, such as an Income entity, and which also contains a page which references both those entity types.
Non-Healthcare Reform Steps to Reproduce:
- Open the configured script.
- Fill out all details for primary person and spouse.
- Create an income for each person.
- For each person, navigate through the page which references both entity types.
- Using the navigational panel, go to the section where you can delete a person and delete the last person who was entered.
- Using the navigational panel, go back to the section which contains the page which references both entity types.
Resolution:
The issue has been resolved. Now after deleting the Person from the script the pages that reference a Person entity and child entity are updated accordingly.
PO07802, WorkItem:231314 - Pressing the keyboard 'Enter' key on a combobox with an inline autocomplete suggestion results in a validation error being thrown
Issue Description:
Previously, when navigating an Intelligence Evidence Gathering page using the keyboard only and hitting the enter key on a combobox with an inline autocomplete suggestion, resulted in the page performing the default action and navigating to the next page. This resulted in a validation being thrown if some mandatory fields were not completed.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log into as a caseworker.
- Register a person and start a new Application.
- Navigate using the keyboard to a combobox input.
- Type the initial letter for a suggested answer in the dropdown.
- Press the enter key to populate the combobox with the autocomplete suggested value.
- The cursor should appear at the end of the text in the combobox.
Resolution:
The IEG page has been updated to properly handle the enter key on the combobox to select the autocomplete suggestion.
PO07815, WorkItem:231716 - Ghost person is being displayed and an application error occurs when a person is removed from HCR application
Issue Description:
An issue exists where an application error can appear while navigating through an Intelligent Evidence Gathering script after an entity has been deleted due to the Intelligent Evidence Gathering engine not updating the list of visited pages correctly.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log in to the Merative SPM application as hcrcaseworker.
- Register an adult person and create a new application.
- Navigate through the script, filling out the details for the primary person.
- Add an adult spouse to the household and fill out the details for that person.
- Ensure both household members want to help pay for their own health insurance and benefits.
- Ensure both household members have income and are tax filers.
- Ensure the spouse plans to file a joint tax return with the primary person
- When asked does the household member pay for certain things that can be deducted on an income tax return, leave the question unanswered.
- Navigate to the "Additional Household Information" page and don't select anything.
- Click on the "Household Information" section in the navigational panel.
- Remove the spouse from the household.
- Click on the "Household Income" section in the navigational panel. Notice a tab is displayed for an unregistered person.
- Select "Yes" for the expected annual income question and click "Next".
- On the "Additional Household Information" page, click on the "Household Information" section in the navigational panel.
Note:
If you are a customer that does not use the Healthcare Reform Solution, but have configured Intelligence Evidence Gathering scripts as an Intake mechanism, you can reproduce this scenario by configuring a script which allows a user to enter and delete a top-level entity, such as a Person entity, a child entity, such as an Income entity, and which also contains a page which references both those entity types.
To do this, create a script with a Question Page and Summary Page element which allows a user to create and delete multiple Person entities and a Question Page element which allows a user to enter an Income entity for each person. Then construct a Loop element whose loop type is set to "for-each" and whose entity type is set to Person. Within the Loop element, configure a Question Page element with an entity type set to be the same as the Loop entity type. A Question element within a Cluster element, whose entity type is set to Income, should then be constructed on the Question page.
Non-Healthcare Reform Steps to Reproduce:
- Open the configured script.
- Create a primary person and two additional people.
- Create an income for each person.
- For each person, navigate through the page which references both entity types.
- Using the navigational panel, go to the section where you can delete a person and delete the last person who was entered.
- Using the navigational panel, go back to the section which contains the page which references both entity types.
Resolution:
An application error will no longer appear while navigating through an Intelligent Evidence Gathering script after deleting an entity due to the Intelligent Evidence Gathering engine clearing the list of visited pages correctly.
PO07869, WorkItem:234789 - Outcome plan assessment back button navigation does not return to the previous page as expected
Issue Description:
An issue occurs in Intelligent Evidence Gathering scripts where navigating using the back button does not return to the previous page as expected. This issue occurs when there are one or more pages, whose entity type has been specified to one that was created outside of an Intelligent Evidence Gathering script, for example via a Callout element, but is not referenced by any Question or Cluster elements elsewhere in the script, and where all of the Cluster elements inside those pages have their entity type set to another entity type.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
Configure an Intelligent Evidence Gathering script that contains a question page, a summary page and a final landing page, ensuring all pages contain a navigational back button. Configure a Callout element to create an entity of a certain type before the first question page, and set the entity type of the first question page and the following summary page to the same entity type that was created by the Callout. Then configure a Cluster element, which contains a Question element, inside both the question and summary pages, and set the entity type of the Cluster element to be different to the entity type of the page.
- Navigate to the first question page and answer any questions that are present.
- Navigate through the script until you get to the final landing page.
- Click the back button to go to the final summary page.
- Click the back button again and you will arrive on the final landing page again.
- Click the back button again and you will arrive on the final question page.
Resolution:
This issue has now been fixed, and users navigating using the back button will return to the previous page as expected.
WorkItem:240633 - IEG input sanitizing: stripping tags and keeping non-ascii characters
Issue Description:
Previously, when a user entered text into the Merative Social Program Management Universal Access Responsive Web Application, it was not sanitized before it was saved. For example, “Cúram” was transformed to "Cúram”. As a result, the text was unreadable for languages based on non-ASCII characters
**User Interface Impact: **YES, HTML Tags are removed.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Navigate to a form in Merative Social Program Management Universal Access Responsive Web Application
- Enter a non-ASCII character, i.e “Cúram”, into the form.
- Save the form and view the details on the summary page.
- Note that non-ASCII characters are unreadable, i.e "Cúram”
Resolution:
Now, the sanitization mechanism removes the HTML tags only and non-ASCII characters are readable
Evidence Broker
PO07654, WorkItem:223602 - Exception occurs while trying to broker evidence from a person case to an integrated case by using the old evidence broker in V7.0.2
Issue Description:
While trying to broker evidence from a person case to an integrated case by using an old evidence broker configuration, an unhandled server exception occurs when the user clicks the Incoming Evidence tab.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Log on as sysadmin.
- Set the value of the "curam.aes.advancedEvidenceSharingEnabled" property to "NO" and publish the changes.
- Log on as hcrcaseworker.
- Submit a simple application with a single member with income in the Streamline Medicaid range. Provide the date of birth as 1/1/1980.
- Open the application case Action menu and click Authorize. An integrated case and product delivery case are created.
- At the person level, click Evidence in the shortcuts panel, then edit the Birth and Death Details evidence.
- Modify the date of birth to 1/1/1982.
- Click Save.
- Open the integrated case, then click the Evidence > Incoming Evidence tab. An unhandled server exception message is displayed.
Resolution:
The old evidence broker was deprecated in V7.0.2 and and is disabled by default in the application. To enable the old evidence broker, extra configuration is required in addition to configuring the "curam.aes.advancedEvidenceSharingEnabled" property. The unhandled server exception occurred because the system was reverted back to use the old broker without changing the UI configuration to use the old Incoming Evidence UI, it was trying to use the new Incoming Evidence UI.
All configuration steps are now described in the "Enabling Evidence Broker 1" section in the Upgrade Helper Guide. For more information, see

PO07891, WorkItem:236110 - Incoming Evidence page does not display correct dates when a user's timezone is not Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
Issue Description:
The Incoming Evidence page is not displaying the correct dates in the Incoming Evidence or Existing Evidence timelines when a user's timezone is set to a different timezone other than Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This causes the 'Update with Incoming' evidence modal and 'Set as Latest of Incoming' evidence modal to not correctly display incoming evidence due to the incorrect dates being used in the timelines.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
The issue occurs on the Incoming Evidence screen for all cases. The steps below require prerequisite setup in Admin; login to Admin and create an Integrated Case called Social Assistance and add email evidence to this case.
- Change the client machine's timezone to EST, e.g. New York.
- In Admin; check to ensure there is no identical sharing configuration setup for Social Assistance - Email > Social Assistance - Email.
- Register a person.
- Create a Social Assistance case for that person (Case 1).
- Add email evidence with a start date of yesterday & apply changes.
- Create another Social Assistance case for that person (Case 2).
- Login to Admin and now add identical sharing configuration of Social Assistance - Email > Social Assistance - Email.
- Login as caseworker again and add email evidence to Case 2 with a start date of today & apply changes. This will trigger Advanced Evidence Sharing (AES) but as the two Email evidences can't be reconciled it will be added to the Incoming Evidence list.
- Open the Incoming Evidence page on Case 1 and toggle the Email evidence inline page. The start date on both the incoming and the existing evidence will be correct, but the dates shown in the timeline will be a day earlier.
- Selecting 'Update with Incoming' or 'Set as Latest of Incoming' from the existing Email's actions will display a modal with an empty evidence list.
Resolution:
The Incoming Evidence page will now take the browser's timezone into account and display the correct dates on the Incoming Evidence and Existing Evidence timelines.
Technical:
The issue was addressed by updating the following file
- ../Curam/components/AdvancedEvidenceSharing/WebContent/
CDEJ/jscript/aes/BusinessObjectViewer.js
to include a _getDate(dateString) function which formats dates in the browser's timezone.
Financial Management
PO04061, WorkItem:103256 - System does not allow creation of a deduction when there is an active deduction with the same name and overlapping dates
Issue Description:
The system prevented the creation of a deduction when an active deduction with the same name and overlapping dates existed on the system for the same case. This occurred despite the 'prevent overlapping' flag being set to false for the underlying product.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Set up a Liability Repayment deduction on a product with the prevent overlapping flag set to false.
- Set up a product delivery to deliver this product and generate payments on it.
- Modify the evidence to create an over-payment.
- Create a deduction on the product delivery to offset the over-payment, but don't activate it.
- Create a second deduction on the product delivery to offset the over-payment, but don't activate it.
- Activate the first deduction.
- Activate the second deduction.
- Create a third deduction against the over-payment with dates which overlap with one or other of the first two deductions - an error is reported to the case worker preventing them from creating the deduction due to an existing overlapping deduction.
Resolution:
The process for setting up a deduction was treating an informational as an error, which prevented a caseworker from completing the set-up steps. It is now possible to create multiple overlapping deductions with the same name when the 'prevent overlapping' flag is set to false for the underlying product.
Technical:
The issue was caused by a call to the Informational Manager failOperation API when it contained a warning, when it should only be called when the type of informational contained within the Informational Manager is of type 'Error' or 'Fatal Error'. Warnings should not prevent the transaction from completing, instead the warning should be returned as an informational, which can be achieved by wrapping the call to the failOperation in an API that checks explicitly for these types.
The fix for the reported issue introduces an API to wrap the call to failOperation and performs an explicit check for informationals of type 'Error' and 'Fatal Error'.
It is now possible to create multiple overlapping deductions with the same name when the 'prevent overlapping' flag is set to false for the underlying product.
Identity Intelligence
WorkItem:232534 - Merative SPM is now certified to use IBM InfoSphere Identity Insight 9.0.0
The IBM InfoSphere Identity Insight (II) product analyzes participant data that is collected from the Merative SPM system. The product checks if similar or suspicious identities exist in the participant data. An analysis takes place to indicate a risk of fraud, waste, or abuse when a caseworker enters or works with one candidate.
The version of the IBM InfoSphere Identity Insight product certified for usage with SPM has been updated from 8 to 9.0.0. There were a number of changes made as part of the II version update.
1. Identity Insight's authentication framework has been standardized to take advantage of the many authentication options provided by WebSphere Liberty. As a result of this the following is required to connect to the II service:
- a user name must be specified
- a password must be specified.
To allow the user name and password to be configured by customers, the following dynamic application properties have been introduced which allows the user name and password to be used for InfoShere Insight integration to be set and changed as required.
- curam.programIntegrity.II.username
- curam.programIntegrity.II.password
2. Merative Social Program Management uses web services to connect to the Identity Insights instance to pass data to that services and retrieve the results. These web services are delivered as part of an II installation and the associated WSDL files must be taken onto SPM (EJBServer\components\ProgramIntegrity\wsdl) and the relevant web services stubs generated from them.
The following two II WSDL files have been updated and the associated web services regenerated to ensure compatibility with the new version of II:
- EntityResolver.wsdl
- srd.wsdl

Income Support
PO03820, WorkItem:101352 - Incorrect Paid Employment Period Start Date
Issue Description:
When Paid Employment evidence is created on an Income Support integrated case, it is not possible to capture a business start date for the evidence. Because of this, the start date of the case is displayed as the start date for the period for the evidence on the Evidence list pages. This can result in the display of misleading information for the caseworker when the start date of the employment associated to the Paid Employment evidence is not the same as the case start date.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to reproduce:
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Register a new person.
- Create a new Employment record for the person, with a start date in the past.
- Create a new Income Support integrated case for the person.
- Add Paid Employment evidence to the case to reflect the person's employment.
- The Evidence list pages show the period for the Paid Employment evidence to be from the integrated case start date forward, even though the Employment started in the past.
Resolution:
It is now possible for a different start date to be displayed for the period for the Paid Employment evidence, so that the start date of the related Employment record can be used.
Technical:
A new hook point, EvidencePeriodHook, has been added to the evidence infrastructure to allow customers to override, at an evidence type level, the business start and end dates used for the period on the Evidence list pages. The hook point was added as part of WorkItem: 123096. An implementation of this hook can be provided for the Paid Employment evidence type to allow for the return of the associated Employment start and end dates. The custom implementation will then need to be bound to the evidence type.
PO06440, WorkItem:166062 - Outstanding verification cannot be created for Contributor Evidence configured at PD level
Issue Description:
A mandatory verification on the Expense Amount attribute of the Contributor evidence configured at the product delivery level does not get created.
Setting of the verification at the product delivery level is dependent on a case participant being present in the evidence hierarchy, as the logic reads back up through the hierarchy as far as it can to find a case participant attribute. If it finds none, then there is no value available for creating the product delivery verification.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an administrator.
- Enable mandatory verifications for the product delivery, for example for Food Assistance, Cash Assistance, or Medical Assistance.
- Configure verifications for evidence, for example for Contributor.
- Login as an Income Support caseworker, and submit an application for a parent and child who are determined eligible for the product delivery configured above.
- Create the evidence configured above.
- Check the Verifications tab on the product delivery and see that the mandatory outstanding verifications are not created for the evidence.
Resolution:
Now, a mandatory verification on the Expense Amount attribute of the Contributor evidence configured at the product delivery level is created.
Technical:
A fallback mechanism has been incorporated into the static evidence generator for structures where no case participant exists. In this instance, a case participant associated with the evidence descriptor is used instead to guarantee that the product delivery verification gets created. The issue has been addressed by an update to the static evidence generator. This was addressed in WorkItem: 234258.
WorkItem:185477 - When a new member is added to an Income Support application using the 'Add a Member' Guided Change wizard, the user is incorrectly navigated to an integrated case
Issue Description:
A caseworker can add a new member to the household within an Income Support application using the 'Add a Member' guided change wizard. When the caseworker completes the 'Add a Member' wizard, the caseworker is incorrectly navigated to the Guided Change page within an Income Support integrated case, rather than to the Guided Change page within the Income Support application.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Create an Income Support application.
- Add a new member to the application by selecting the Guided Change > Add a Member action item from the tab level action menu.
- Complete the 'Add a Member' wizard.
- A new tab for an Income Support integrated case is incorrectly opened and the user is navigated to the Guided Change page within the integrated case.
Resolution:
When the caseworker adds a new member to an Income Support application using the 'Add a Member' guided change wizard, the caseworker is now correctly navigated to the Guided Change page within the Income Support application.
Technical:
The out-of-the-box summary page for the 'Add a Member' Guided Change wizard is ISAddMemberWizard_summaryDetails. This previously redirected the user to the CREOLEIntegratedCase_listGuidedChange page, which is associated with the Income Support IC tab. The logic has been updated to determine, on submission, where the Guided Change began and redirect appropriately. The functionality now redirects to either
- CREOLEIntegratedCase_listGuidedChange (for integrated cases) or
- ISPApplication_listGuidedChange (for application cases)
WorkItem:222596 - Removal of Concurrent Eligibility 7.0.3 Refresh Pack Application Properties
Issue Description:
Previously the feature that detects concurrent eligibility for Food Assistance and Cash Assistance was configurable through application properties and was turned off by default to support its initial release in the 7.0.3 refresh pack.
Two additional application properties were also available to control whether validations related to program authorization should occur or not and were also turned off by default.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce: N/A
Resolution:
The following application properties have now been removed as they were only intended for refresh pack purposes:
- Dual Detection Enabled Indicator for Cash Assistance
- curam.isproduct.cashassistance.dualdetection.enabled
- Determines whether Cash Assistance rules check for concurrent eligibility when determining client eligibility. When the value is 'YES', concurrent eligibility is checked.
- Dual Detection Enabled Indicator for Food Assistance
- curam.isproduct.foodassistance.dualdetection.enabled
- Determines whether Food Assistance rules check for concurrent eligibility when determining client eligibility. When the value is 'YES', concurrent eligibility is checked.
- Override the authorization validation for end-dated members
- curam.isproduct.dualparticipant.enddatedhhmember.authoverride.
enabled - When Food Assistance or Cash Assistance is authorized, determines whether the authorization should be allowed when an applicant is a case member on another case of the same type that does not have a status of closed but has left the household. When the value is 'YES', the system overrides the authorization validation and authorization is allowed.
- curam.isproduct.dualparticipant.enddatedhhmember.authoverride.
- Override Food Assistance authorization validation for member living in a domestic violence situation
- curam.isproduct.foodassistance.dvauthoverride.enabled
- When Food Assistance is authorized, determines whether the authorization should be allowed when an applicant is a case member on another Food Assistance case that does not have a status of closed, but has living arrangement evidence of type 'Shelter for Battered Women and Children' on the new application. When the value is 'YES', the system overrides the authorization validation and authorization is allowed.
The following guide that references the configuration options has also now been updated:
- Configuring concurrent eligibility detection in the Configuring Income Support section.

- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker and start a new application.
- Navigate to pages where the following questions are asked and click on the help icon for the following questions.
- 'Do you have a fixed address?'
- 'Is the mailing address the same as home address?'
- 'Does <participant> have an SSN?'
- 'Does this person want to find out if they can get help paying for their own health insurance and health benefits?'
- Help text is not displayed for these questions.
Resolution:
The missing help-texts have been added to the IEG script XML files and to the corresponding properties files.
WorkItem:228872 - Add a Member Guided Change wizard is not correctly saving primary caretaker information entered in the Relationship Details page
Issue Description:
When adding a member to a household using the 'Add a Member' guided change wizard on an Income Support case, the caseworker can select a Primary Caretaker indicator on the Relationship Details page to indicate that the new member being added is the primary caretaker of an existing household member as part of establishing a relationship between the two members. When the caseworkers selects the Primary Caretaker indicator and completes the 'Add a Member' wizard the information is not saved to the Household Relationship evidence that is created at the end of the process.
**User Interface Impact: **No.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Create an Income Support integrated case.
- Add a new member to the household by selecting the Guided Change > Add a Member action item from the tab level action menu.
- On the Relationship Details page, indicate that the new member is the primary caretaker of an existing household member.
- Complete the wizard.
- Navigate to the Evidence Workspace and view the Household Relationship evidence that was created.
- The 'Primary Caretaker' indicator is not set to 'Yes'.
Resolution:
The 'Primary Caretaker' indicator is now correctly populated when the Household Relationship evidence is created.
PO07893, WorkItem:236133 - Dual Eligibility Report batch process fails when run on a different deployed machine
Issue Description:
When the application is built and deployed on different locations (e.g. built on server A in C: drive and deployed on server B in D: drive), running the Dual Eligibility Report batch process may fail.
**User Interface Impact: **No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Build EJBServer
- Deploy to Server with different path
- Run the Dual Eligibility Report
Resolution:
The issues occurs because the report uses CER Generated Rule Classes to reference CashAssistanceRuleSet.CADualDetectionCalculator and FoodAssistanceRuleSet.FADualDetectionCalculator. The generated classes are intended only for use by test code and are not supported in production.
An implementable interface has been removed as part of this change as it exposed the generated rule classes in the contract, and has instead been replaced with a compliant approach.
- Removed: curam.isproduct.creole.dualdetection.batch.report.dualeligibility.impl.
DualDetectionCalculatorFactory - Replaced with: curam.isproduct.creole.dualdetection.batch.report.dualeligibility.impl.
DualDetectionCalculator
The batch report is intended only as an admin tool for understanding existing cases of Dual Eligibility. Where custom implementations have been provided for DualDetectionCalculatorFactory the following should be noted:
- The implementation will fail to compile now that the interface DualDetectionCalculatorFactory has been removed
- A new implementation should be made implementing the DualDetectionCalculator interface
- The new implementation must be bound to the Product type code in place of the existing DualDetectionCalculatorFactory binding. This will ensure the report runs for any custom products the DualDetectionCalculator has been implemented for.
PO07948, WorkItem:238564 - Error occurs when selecting the 'Open in New Tab' function on the Verifications page
Issue Description:
On an Income Support integrated case, clicking on the 'Open in New Tab' page level action on the evidence Verifications page throws an error.
User Interface Impact: Yes, the 'Open in New Tab' page level action menu is removed from the evidence Verifications page for Income Support.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Register a person and create an application for Food Assistance
- Authorize the application.
- Navigate to the Income Support integrated case.
- Navigate to the Verifications page under the Evidence tab.
- Select the 'Open in New Tab' function on the page.
- The following error message is displayed: "ERROR: The page that you are trying to link to is associated with multiple tabs: [CaseEvidence,OutcomePlan]. Therefore the tab to open cannot be determined and the page will open in the current."
Resolution:
The 'Open in New Tab' page level function has been removed from the Verifications page. This was done to ensure consistency between the Insurance Affordability and Income Support integrated cases.
ASSESSMENT AND TRACKING RETURN TO WORK
PO06394, WorkItem:163194 - Unhandled server exception occurs when viewing the Outcome Plan Home page of an outcome plan that includes a new action with no frequency specified
Issue Description:
As part of the Return to Work Outcome Management process in Income Support, clients that are work registered can be referred to a provider and an outcome plan can then be created within the Income Support integrated case to help clients attain self sufficiency. When an outcome plan is created as part of this process, if a user manually adds a new action to the outcome plan and does not specify a frequency for the action, an unhandled server exception occurs when the user attempts to view the Outcome Plan Home page.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a system administrator and enable geocoding functionality for the Work Referral process.
- Set the curam.miscapp.geocode.enabled application property to 'YES'.
- Set the miscapp.geocode.googlemapsapikey application property to the appropriate Google API Key.
- Ensure that the address for a provider and the address entered for a client during the application process will result in a match during the Work Referral process.
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Create and submit a new application for Cash Assistance for a mother and child that includes work registration and other evidence and that will result in an eligible determination.
- Check eligibility for Cash Assistance to ensure that the determination result is 'Eligible'.
- Navigate to the Work Eligibility tab and create a new Referral for the mother.
- Authorize the application.
- Login as a user that manages the creation of return to work outcome plans.
- Navigate to the Pending Referrals tab under the Outcome Plans section of the Shortcuts menu.
- Search for the referral created for the mother, and assign the referral to the user.
- Navigate to the Income Support integrated case created for the mother.
- Create a new outcome plan of type 'Self Sufficiency Outcome Plan'.
- Within the outcome plan, navigate to the Activities tab and select to create a new action.
- In step 1 of the New Action wizard, do not select any of the pre-defined actions and instead enter a name for a new action.
- In step 3 of the wizard, leave the Frequency field blank.
- Finish the wizard and save the new action.
- Navigate to the Outcome Plan Home page.
- An unhandled server exception occurs.
Resolution:
The Outcome Plan Home page has been updated to correctly recognize manually entered actions that have no frequency and displays correctly.
Technical Details:
The error occurred in the following rules during a call-out to a Statics class:
- Rules (unmodified):
- /EJBServer/components/AssessmentTracking/CREOLE_Rule_Sets/
Data/OutcomePlan/ActivityDetails.xml, Attribute scheduledMinutesTimeLine
- /EJBServer/components/AssessmentTracking/CREOLE_Rule_Sets/
- Static method (modified):
- curam.assessmenttracking.impl.Statics.determineScheduledTimeLine
The Static method has been updated to return the default zero forever Timeline where no frequency is specified.
FOOD ASSISTANCE
PO06147, WorkItem:152703 - Unhandled Server Exception occurs when editing Household Relationship evidence for a reciprocal relationship
Issue Description:
When a caseworker creates Household Relationship evidence on an Income Support integrated case, reciprocal relationships are automatically created. For example, if a boy and a girl are household members of a case and Household Relationship evidence is added for the boy that indicates that the girl is the sister of the boy, the system automatically creates a reciprocal relationship that indicates that the boy is the brother of the girl.
If a caseworker subsequently attempts to modify the reciprocal Household Relationship evidence record that was created by the system, an unhandled server exception occurs.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Income Support caseworker.
- Register a person.
- From the Applications tab of the person record, select 'New Application'.
- Complete an application for Food Assistance that includes two applicants and submit the application. Be sure to tick the checkbox for 'Does this person purchase and prepare food with the claimant?'.
- Navigate to the application case and add the required evidence to make the household eligible.
- Resolve any outstanding verifications.
- Authorize the case and activate the Food Assistance product delivery case.
- Navigate to the Income Support integrated case and edit the 'Household Relationship' evidence record that was created by the system as a reciprocal record for the one entered by the caseworker; specifically change the value of the 'Relationship Type' from the drop-down menu.
- Click Save.
- An unhandled server exception occurs.
Resolution:
This issue has been addressed and it is now possible to successfully modify a Household Relationship evidence record the represents a reciprocal relationship.
MEDICAL ASSISTANCE
WorkItem:103814 - Implementation for the @ProfileMethod annotation for verification services should only print to the system logs when tracing turned on
Issue Description:
The verification services inside Insurance Affordability are annotated with @ProfileMethod. The interceptor implementation of this annotation reported everything to the system logs, regardless of whether tracing was turned on or not. This has the side effect of polluting the logs and making them difficult to interrogate. It also reduces the scalability of the system.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit the application.
- An examination of the system logs will show that it will contain logging information for the verification services that are called.
Resolution:
The implementation associated with the @ProfileMethod annotation in Insurance Affordability for the verification services has been updated to only write to the system logs when the tracing is turned on. Nothing is written to the logs when tracing is turned off. Additionally, the JMX infrastructure is used to capture the performance stats associated with the verification services.
PO04427, WorkItem:104951 - Incorrectly allowing multiple overlapping Tax Relationship records to be created
Issue Description:
Tax Relationship evidence is used to indicate when one person is considered a tax dependent of another person. If a Tax Relationship is created between a child and one of their parents on an Insurance Affordability integrated case, there is no validation to prevent another Tax Relationship being set up for the child and their other parent for the same period of time. This allows a caseworker to incorrectly indicate that a child is being claimed by different parents for the same time period.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for 2 parents and a child.
- Indicate that the child is a tax dependent of the father so that a Tax Relationship evidence record is created.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Create a new Tax Relationship evidence record for the child and the mother.
- The system does not prevent the new overlapping Tax Relationship record from being created.
Resolution:
The system now checks against existing Tax Relationship records for the dependent in question. If any exist for the given date range, a validation is thrown.
Technical:
The validation has been added to the HCRTaxRelationShipValidatorRuleset.xml rule-set.
PO05283, WorkItem:105328 - Validation prevents multiple non-overlapping Incarceration records for a participant
Issue Description:
Caseworkers are unable to create multiple non-overlapping Incarceration evidence records for a given participant. This makes it difficult for a caseworker to properly capture incarceration history for somebody who is in and out of correctional facilities throughout the lifecycle of the case.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Create a new Incarceration evidence record for a 2 month time-frame.
- Create a second Incarceration evidence record which does not overlap with the first one.
- The second Incarceration record cannot be created due to the validation 'An Incarceration record already exists for this Participant'.
Resolution:
The meta-data for the Incarceration dynamic evidence type has been corrected, and multiple non-overlapping Incarceration evidence records can now be added for a participant on an Insurance Affordability integrated case.
Technical:
The meta-data file that has been fixed is Metadata_HCRIncarceration_20150811.xml.
PO05547, PO06189, WorkItem:105444 - Un-handled server exception occurs when creating/editing evidence and no participant is selected
Issue Description:
Creating or editing evidence on an Insurance Affordability integrated case results in an un-handled server exception if no participant is selected.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Create or edit evidence (e.g. pregnancy/member relationship/Income/Benefit) with blank case participant.
- An un-handled server exception occurs.
Resolution:
The following corrections have been made to the latest version of dynamic evidence:
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory
The Case Participant drop-down field has been marked as mandatory. In instances where 'All Panels' has been specified in the meta-data, i.e. a Case Participant can be selected in a drop-down, a participant can be searched for, or a new participant created, it is not possible to mark the drop-down as mandatory.
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank
For those fields where the Case Participant has been marked as mandatory, the behaviour of the drop-down has been updated to default the field to blank. This means that the caseworker must select the correct case participant before saving the record. If the ‘Case Participant’ field is left blank, a validation is displayed ‘Case Participant must be entered’.
When a dynamic evidence types is created for a case participant, the case participant field appears as read-only on the modify screen.
These changes to case participant have been implemented across all dynamic evidence that allow a case participant to be selected when creating an evidence record through the user interface. For details of these changes see WorkItem 237075.
PO07319, WorkItem:164031 - Duplicate private address evidence created when adding a person to a case using the change of circumstance process or Add a Member guided change wizard
Issue Description:
Duplicate private address evidence is being created when a person is added to an Insurance Affordability integrated case via the change of circumstance process or the Add a Member guided change wizard.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Submit an application via the Citizen Portal for a husband & wife who both reside at the same address. Select the mailing address to be the same as the private address.
- Verify that three address evidence records are created on the Application Case and Insurance Affordability integrated case. Two address evidence records for the husband (private & mailing) and one for the wife (mailing).
- Add a child to the integrated case using the change of circumstance process. Select that the child resides with the husband and wife created in first step.
- Submit the change of circumstance.
- An inspection of the evidence will show that duplicate address records have been created for the child.
Resolution:
When a person is added to an Insurance Affordability integrated case via the change of circumstance process or the Add a Member guided change wizard, only one private address evidence record is now created on the case.
Technical:
The following two activities in the change of circumstance workflow have been merged into a single activity:
- ParticipantAndCaseProcessing
- EvidenceUpdater
The first of these activities, ParticipantAndCaseProcessing, now performs all of the processing in one step. It does this by calling the new API:
- curam.healthcare.facade.coc.impl.CoCWorkflowHelper.process
ParticipantsAndCasesAndUpdateEvidence():
The following two APIs that were called by the workflow have been deprecated:
- curam.healthcare.facade.coc.impl.CoCWorkflowHelper.
processParticipantsAndCases() - curam.healthcare.facade.coc.impl.CoCWorkflowHelper.

PO06636, WorkItem:174773 - Mother enrolled on Medicaid on child's date of birth does not evaluate correctly for Deemed Newborn
Issue Description:
Eligibility for Deemed Newborn requires the child’s mother to be eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth. The information currently used to satisfy this rule results in incorrect eligibility in certain situations because only Newborn evidence is being checked by the rules when determining if the child's mother is eligible on the child's date of birth. When Newborn evidence is not recorded, the child is incorrectly found eligible for the Children category instead of Deemed Newborn, even when the mother is eligible for Medicaid on the child's date of birth.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to reproduce:
- Login to Citizen Portal.
- Submit an Insurance Affordability application on 6/30/2018 for a pregnant woman with a due date of 9/1/2018.
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Authorize the application to create a Streamlined Medicaid product delivery case.
- Change the System Date to 9/1/2018.
- End date the pregnancy evidence 9/1/2018.
- Login to the Citizen portal and add a newborn with DOB 9/1/2018.
- Answer No to ‘Was Newborn’s mother enrolled on Medicaid that covers labor and delivery (including Emergency Medicaid) on his/her date of birth?' while processing the change of circumstance.
- Process the change of circumstance.
- No Newborn evidence is created due to the answer provided to the "Was Newborn’s mother enrolled on Medicaid that covers labor and delivery (including Emergency Medicaid) on his/her date of birth" question.
- The child is incorrectly determined eligible for the Streamlined Medicaid Children category instead of Deemed Newborn due to the absence of the Newborn evidence, even though the mother is eligible for Medicaid on the child's date of birth.
Resolution:
Newborn evidence is just one of a number of pieces of evidence that can be used to satisfy the condition that the mother is eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
Deemed Newborn rules have been updated to use additional information to correctly determine a newborn's eligibility. Eligibility is now determined by checking any of the following:
- Mother’s Streamlined Medicaid timeline including Emergency and Retroactive Medicaid.
- Mother’s Benefit evidence indicating she was receiving Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
- Mother’s Non-Magi Medicaid evidence indicating she was receiving Traditional Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
- Newborn Evidence indicating the mother was enrolled on Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
While fixing the issue reported, a full review of the Deemed Newborn rules was carried out and some additional changes were made. For details of all changes made to Deemed Newborn rules see WorkItem 237568.
WorkItem:178584 - Update the Person entity in a custom function to avoid locking the datastore
Issue Description:
During the application submission process for an Insurance Affordability application in the citizen portal, in some scenarios when the citizen captured a spousal relationship and proceeded to enroll in a plan, when the Person.maritalStatus datastore attribute was updated during the application submission process at the same time that the plan management enrollment process was initiated, a lock occurred as two processes were started in parallel.
This caused the page to hang, blocking the citizen from proceeding in the enrollment process. There is no indication of an error, or no obvious way to continue. This resulted in the citizen being unable to proceed and enroll on a plan.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login to the Citizen Portal.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a two person household containing a spousal relationship.
- 'Sign and Submit' the application.
- From the home page, select 'Enroll in Plans', then 'Shop for Plans'.
- Select the members to be included on the health plan and select 'Continue'.
- Select the Primary Client and 'Continue' triggering the enrollment process.
- A lock on the datastore may occur, causing the page to become unresponsive.
Resolution:
To resolve this issue, the point at when the datastore attribute is updated has been changed to an earlier stage in the intake process. As a result the two processes are not occurring in parallel so the lock no longer occurs and the citizen can proceed.
Technical:
- Previously the maritalStatus attribute was updated in curam.healthcare.intake.impl.RelationshipDataIntakeApplicationListener.
- The binding for this file was removed from curam.healthcare.impl.Module.java so that it is no longer called.
- The maritalStatus attribute is now updated in curam.rules.functions.CustomFunctionUpdateSpouseInformation.
PO07842, WorkItem:193328 - Citizen Portal application banner's welcome message and drop down action menu not working correctly when JAWS screen reader is used
Issue Description:
When a citizen logs into the Citizen Portal application, a welcome message and a drop down action menu that allows the user to reset their password or log out are displayed in the upper right corner of the application banner. When the JAWS screen reader is being used, a user is not able to correctly use the keyboard to access these two items.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- In the Citizen Portal, create and login as an external user.
- View the user's username in the welcome message and select the drop down action menu to view the 'Reset password' and 'Log Out' menu items.
- Start the JAWS screen reader.
- When the JAWS screen reader is used, the welcome message and drop down action menu cannot be accessed as separate options using the keyboard.
Resolution:
The application banner has been redesigned to now include two separate links, one for the welcome message and one for the drop down action menu. When the JAWS screen reader is being used, a user is now able to use the keyboard to access the two items.
PO07127, WorkItem:195536 - Deemed Newborn's ongoing eligibility incorrectly dependent on mother's continued eligibility for Medicaid
Issue Description:
A child’s eligibility for Deemed Newborn was incorrectly dependent on the child being included in the mother’s household and the mother’s continued eligibility for Medicaid. Loss of Medicaid for the mother resulted in the loss of Deemed Newborn for the child. The mother’s ongoing Medicaid eligibility is not a condition for eligibility for Deemed Newborn.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application on 6/1/2018 for mother and newborn.
- Mother recently pregnant with pregnancy end date of 6/1/2018.
- Mother was enrolled on Medicaid during pregnancy.
- Newborn’s date of birth 6/1/2018.
- Answer yes to ‘Was Child's mother enrolled on Medicaid that covers labor and delivery (including Emergency Medicaid) on his/her date of birth?’.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Mother eligible for Streamlined Medicaid and child eligible for Deemed Newborn.
- Change the system date to 9/1/2018.
- Create new Income record for mother, wages & salaries, $50,000 yearly, start date 9/1/2018 and apply changes.
- Mother loses eligibility for Streamlined Medicaid and child also loses eligibility for Deemed Newborn.
Resolution:
A child’s eligibility for Deemed Newborn is no longer dependent on the Mother’s continued eligibility for Medicaid. It is only a requirement for the Mother to be eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth. This is satisfied by checking any of the following:
- Mother’s Streamlined Medicaid timeline including Emergency and Retroactive Medicaid.
- Mother’s Benefit evidence indicating she was receiving Medicaid on the child’s date of birth in the configured state.
- Mother’s Non-Magi Medicaid evidence indicating she was receiving Traditional Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
- Newborn Evidence indicating the mother was enrolled on Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
Once the child has been determined eligible for Deemed Newborn they are eligible until the end of the month in which child turns one unless the child moves out of state or dies.
While fixing the issue reported, a full review of the Deemed Newborn rules was carried out and some additional changes were made. For details of all changes made to Deemed Newborn rules see WorkItem 237568.
PO07437, WorkItem:210075 - Household Composition is incorrect for tax dependents when the related tax filer is changed
Issue Description:
For a household that contains tax dependents, household composition is incorrectly determined during a change of circumstance when the tax dependency of the tax filers changes from one tax filer to another. In the situation where the mother claims her two children as tax dependents on her tax return and subsequently the tax dependency of the children changes to the father, eligibility is incorrectly determined due to the rules continuing to consider the mother as the tax filer.
User Interface Impact: No.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application with 4 members: mother, father and 2 children.
- Mother and father are unrelated.
- Mother is the parent of both children.
- Father is the parent of one child.
- Father lives at a different address from the mother and children.
- Mother and father file taxes separately.
- Children are tax dependent on the mother.
- Income for the mother and father is in the Medicaid range.
- Submit and authorize the application to create a Streamlined Medicaid product delivery case.
- End the tax relationship between the children and their mother.
- Create a new tax relationship between both children and the father starting the day after the relationship with the mother ends.
- Apply changes.
- The Household unit formed for the two children is still based on the mother as tax filer.
Resolution:
The rules have been updated to select the related tax filer for tax dependents based on the period of time. This ensures that when the related tax filer changes, the correct eligibility is determined for the tax filer's dependents.

PO07585, WorkItem:217518 - Unable to create new Tax Filing Status evidence record when previous record was not end dated manually
Issue Description:
When a Tax Filing Status evidence record of a particular type was not end dated manually by a caseworker but was instead succeeded by a new Tax Filing Status evidence record of another type, the caseworker was subsequently prevented from creating a new evidence record of the original type.
The caseworker originally recorded the individual as a 'tax filer'. Circumstances changed and the individual became a 'non-filer'. The caseworker updated the existing 'tax filer' record and changed the type to 'non-filer' and set the effective date of the change. Subsequently the individual left the household and the caseworker end-dated their Tax Filing Status evidence record. Sometime later the individual rejoined the household as a tax filer. The caseworker was unable to create a new Tax Filing Status evidence record of type 'tax filer'. A duplicate validation was thrown stating a Tax Filing Status evidence record of type 'tax filer' already exists.
This was happening due to the system not recognising the virtual end date of a record in a succession. The virtual or notional end date is the effective from date of the next record in the succession minus one day.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a tax filer with income of $20,000, and an application date of 8/7/2017.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Edit the Tax Filing Status record of 'Tax Filer' and set effective date to 9/1/2017 and change type to 'Non-Filer'.
- Apply changes.
- End date the Tax Filing Status record of ‘Non-Filer’ to 9/20/2017.
- Apply changes.
- Create a new Tax Filing Status record of type ‘Non Filer’, with start date 9/21/2017.
- Apply changes.
- End date the Tax Filing Status record of ‘Non-Filer’ to 9/24/2017.
- Apply changes.
- Create a new Tax Filing Status record of type ‘Tax Filer’, with start date 9/25/2017.
- The following validation error is displayed and prevents the user from creating the new Tax Filing Status record: ‘A Tax Filing Status record of ‘Tax Filer’ already exits for this Participant for the same period’.
Resolution:
Dynamic evidence processing has been updated to recognize the virtual or notional end date of each evidence record in a succession. The virtual or notional end date is the effective from date of the next record in the succession minus one day.
It is now possible for the caseworker to create another Tax Filing Status evidence record of the same type as one that has been succeeded.
This change has been implemented for all dynamic evidence, see WorkItem 237078.
PO07612, WorkItem:220162 - Add a Member guided change does not allow existing member to be set as Primary Caretaker resulting in incorrect coverage
Issue Description:
When adding relationship details for a new household member via the Add a Member guided change wizard, only the member being added can be set as the primary caretaker. If the new household member being added has a primary caretaker who is an existing household member, the caseworker is unable to set the existing member as the primary caretaker. This could occur where the new member being added is a child who has a non-parent caretaker in the household. As a result, incorrect eligibility may be determined as the primary caretaker indicator is used as evidence to establish eligibility for the Parent/Caretaker coverage category for Streamlined Medicaid.
User Interface Impact:
Yes - an additional question is added on the 'Personal Information' page of the Add a Member guided change.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Search for and open an existing Insurance Affordability application or integrated case.
- From the page action menu, select Guided Change > Add a Member.
- Add a new member that is a child and whose primary caretaker is an existing household member.
- Proceed through the wizard completing as necessary.
- On the 'Relationship' page the primary caretaker indicator can only be used to indicate that the child is the primary caretaker of an existing household member. It is not possible to record an existing household member as the primary caretaker of the child.
Resolution:
When adding a new household member via the Add a Member guided change wizard, a caseworker can now record if the new household member has a primary caretaker (other than a parent) who is an existing household member.
A question has been added to the 'Personal Information' page to determine if the new household member has a primary caretaker (other than a parent) in the household. If the checkbox is not selected, there is no change to how the information is displayed on the 'Relationship' page. However if the checkbox is selected, the Participant and Related Participant(s) are switched on the 'Relationship' page, so that, when the primary caretaker checkbox is selected, the existing household member is recorded as the non-parent primary caretaker.
PO07606, WorkItem:220380 - Unhandled server exception occurred when creating Member Relationship evidence if case participant or related participant was not specified
Issue Description:
When a caseworker is adding new Member Relationship evidence to an Insurance Affordability integrated case an un-handled server exception is thrown if the ‘case participant’ and ‘related participant’ fields are left blank.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Create a new Member Relationship record with blank ‘Case Participant’ and ‘Related Participant’.
- An un-handled server exception occurs.
Resolution:
The following corrections have been made to the latest version of dynamic evidence for Member Relationship:
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory.
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank.
a) Case Participant marked as mandatory
The Case Participant drop-down field has been marked as mandatory.
b) Case Participant defaulted to blank
The Case Participant drop-down has been updated to default to blank. This means that the caseworker must select the correct case participant before saving the record. If a case participant is not selected, a validation 'Case Participant must be entered' is displayed.
When the record is created for a case participant, the case participant field appears as read-only on the modify screen.
These changes to case participant have been implemented across all dynamic evidence that allow a case participant to be selected when creating a record through the user interface. For details of these changes see WorkItem 237075.
PO07632, WorkItem:222048 - Tax filing status incorrectly causing ineligibility for Retroactive Medicaid
Issue Description:
An individual’s tax filing status and whether or not they are claimed as a tax dependent by a person external to the household should not impact their eligibility for Retroactive Medicaid.
When a caseworker indicates that an applicant is a tax dependent on a person external to the household, the applicant is found eligible for Streamlined Medicaid assuming all other eligibility conditions are met, but Retroactive Medicaid is incorrectly denied for the individual.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Indicate the person is claimed as a Tax Dependent by an external member when entering Tax Filing Status information.
- Submit and authorize the application to create a Streamlined Medicaid product delivery case.
- Create Medical Bills evidence covering the retroactive period.
- Back date all relevant evidence to cover the retroactive period.
- Check Retroactive Medicaid eligibility.
- Person is ineligible for Retroactive Medicaid eligibility due to being claimed as a dependent by an external member.
Resolution:
Retroactive Medicaid rules have been modified to remove the restriction which prevented eligibility when an individual was claimed as a tax dependent by an external member.
When a caseworker records the tax filing status for an individual and indicates the individual is claimed as a tax dependent by an external member, the individual is eligible for Retroactive Medicaid assuming all other eligibility conditions are met.
Technical:
The following rules changes were made:
- Rule set:
- EJBServer/components/HCR/CREOLE_Rule_Sets/
StreamlineMedicaidEligibilityAndEntitlementRuleset.xml

PO07658, WorkItem:224652 - Long application case names overlap with application case reference numbers in the context panel
Issue Description:
In an Insurance Affordability application case that includes multiple participants, when the application name is long it overlaps with the application case reference number in the context panel.
**User Interface Impact: **Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an administrator.
- Select the Administration workspace tab.
- In the Shortcuts Panel, select Universal Access > Application Cases.
- Edit the Insurance Affordability application case, changing its name to 'Insurance Affordability Application Application' and click 'Save'.
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker and search for (or create) an application with more than one participant.
- Open the application and observe the application name overlaps with other information in the context panel.
Resolution:
If the application name is too long, an ellipsis now appears at the end of the field. This holds true even if the Shortcuts Panel is further dragged to the right.
PO07720, WorkItem:226628 - Comments field on the 'Authorize Program' modal for an application case is too small when selecting to use an existing integrated case during the authorization process
Issue Description:
When authorizing a program for an Insurance Affordability application case, the user is presented with a list of the existing integrated cases for the applicants in the ‘Authorize Program’ modal. In this instance when the integrated cases are displayed within the modal for selection by a user, the Comments field becomes too small and the user is unable to enter text.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an administrator and ensure that the Integrated Case Strategy on the program associated with the Insurance Affordability application is 'Existing (Any Client Match) or New'.
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Register a new person.
- Create an application for the new person.
- Complete and authorize the application and ensure that an integrated case gets created.
- Create another application for the same person.
- On the 'Authorize Program' modal for the second application, the existing integrated case is listed with the 'Comments' field below it.
- The 'Comments' field is too small to enter text into.
Resolution:
The 'Comments' field on the modal has been increased in size and it is now possible for a user to enter text into the field.
Technical:
The name and location of the client page containing the 'Comments' field that has been increased in size is as follows:

WorkItem:231372 - Inconsistent titles across Add a Member guided change wizard pages results in accessibility issues
Issue Description:
When the caseworker is adding a member via the Add a Member guided change wizard, JAWS reads out a different title for each wizard page. The wizard title changes on each page and mirrors the current page. This is confusing for the caseworker as it indicates they have left the wizard when, in fact, they are still navigating through the wizard pages.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- From the page action menu select Guided Change > Add a Member.
- Start JAWS 18 if not already started.
- Complete the wizard, navigating from page to page.
- Different titles are output for each wizard page - Participant Details, Personal Information, etc.
Resolution:
Wizard page titles throughout the Add a Member guided change wizard have been updated. The title is now set to 'Add Member' on all pages. This indicates to the caseworker that they are within a wizard as they navigate through its pages using a screen reader.
PO07811, WorkItem:231542 - Enrolled on Medicaid field on Former Foster Care evidence is misspelled
Issue Description:
The label 'Enrolled on Medicaid' on the Former Foster Care dynamic evidence type is misspelled and reads 'Erolled on Medicaid'.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce
- Login to the Insurance Affordability external application.
- Submit an application for a father and a son.
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Locate the submitted application under ‘My Applications’.
- Authorise the application.
- Navigate to the Related Cases tab and open the Insurance Affordability Integrated Case.
- Select the Evidence tab and add new Former Foster Care evidence for the son.
- Enrolled on Medicaid spelling mistake is shown.
Resolution:
The misspelling has been corrected on the properties file associated with the Former Foster Care dynamic evidence type.
WorkItem:231953 - Add a Member guided change submitted via the Evidence tab is not displayed on the guided change page unless refreshed
Issue Description:
When the caseworker adds a person to the household using the Add a Member guided change wizard, the information is not displayed under the submitted section on the guided change page. The caseworker must refresh the page to see the recently submitted guided change.
This only happens when the caseworker selects the Add a Member guided change wizard on the guided change page via the evidence tab. When a person is added via the guided change from the action menu, the page refreshes automatically.
The reason it does not refresh when accessed via the evidence tab is because the guided change page is already open when the Add a Member guided change wizard is selected and the page is not refreshed if already on that page.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Open the Evidence tab and click on Guided Change.
- Select the Add a Member inline page action.
- Complete the Add a Member Guided Change wizard.
- The submitted Add a Member Guided Change is not displayed on the Guided Change page.
- The caseworker has to refresh the Guided Change page to see the recently submitted Guided Change.
Resolution:
When the caseworker adds a person to the household using the Add a Member guided change via the evidence tab the guided change page now refreshes automatically and displays the recently submitted guided change.
Technical:
This issue has been addressed by updating the following UIM page:
- HCRAddMemberWizard_summary
so that it explicitly calls either
- HCR_guidedChangeFromIntegratedCase or
- HCR_guidedChangeFromAppCase
based on an Action_ID passed back from the server.
Where to navigate to was previously determined using the following resolve script:
- HCRAddMemberWizard_resolveGuidedChangePage
However, resolve scripts do not refresh a page if you are already on that page.
PO07836, WorkItem:232926 - Help Text and Tool Tip content displayed at the end of an Insurance Affordability application overlaps
Issue Description:
When creating an Insurance Affordability application from within the Citizen Portal, a user can view a list of additional benefits for which they may be eligible at the end of the application process. When the user hovers over the help icon for one of the benefits listed, the help text and tool tip content for the benefits are both displayed and overlap each other. This makes it difficult for a user to read and understand the content.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open the Citizen Portal.
- Select to apply for assistance, select to create an account to register in the Citizen Portal, and proceed to create an Insurance Affordability application.
- Answer the questions in the Insurance Affordability application script.
- On the 'Sign and Submit' page at the end of the application that displays information about Healthcare Options, hover over the help icon for one of the other benefits listed for which a client may be eligible.
- The tool tip and help text content are both displayed and overlap.
Resolution:
This issue has been addressed and the help content displayed for the list of benefits no longer overlaps.
WorkItem:237568 - Deemed Newborn rules for Streamlined Medicaid determine incorrect eligibility in certain situations
Issue Description:
The rules for the category of Deemed Newborn for Streamlined Medicaid were determining incorrect eligibility in certain situations.
Deemed Newborn eligibility was incorrectly tied to the mother’s continued eligibility for Medicaid. Loss of Medicaid for the mother incorrectly resulted in loss of Deemed Newborn for the child. Changes in income, which should not impact eligibility, also resulted in the loss of Deemed Newborn for the child.
For a child to be eligible for Deemed Newborn, the child’s mother must be eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth. If the caseworker did not enter Newborn evidence, this resulted in the child incorrectly receiving the Children category of Streamlined Medicaid instead of Deemed Newborn. Newborn evidence is just one of a number of pieces of evidence that can be used to satisfy the mother was eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth. Only Newborn evidence was being checked by the rules.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce: Refer to the steps to reproduce provided in the related work items for examples of how to reproduce this issue.

The rules to determine the category of Deemed Newborn for Streamlined Medicaid have been revised to fix the related WorkItems and some changes required following a review of these rules.
The revised Deemed Newborn rules are:
- Child is under 1 years of age AND
- Mother is enrolled on Medicaid in the state on child’s date of birth AND
- Child is resident in the state AND
- Child is eligible from Date of Birth to the end of the month in which the child turns 1
Child is under 1 years of age
Application for Deemed Newborn can be made up to the day before the child’s first birthday.
\ Mother is enrolled on Medicaid in the state on child’s date of birth
Mother is enrolled on Medicaid in the configured state on the child’s date of birth. This rule is satisfied by checking any of the following:
- Mother’s Streamlined Medicaid Timeline including Emergency and Retroactive Medicaid
- Mother’s Benefit evidence indicating she was receiving Medicaid on the child’s date of birth in the configured state
- Mother’s Non-Magi evidence indicating she was receiving Traditional Medicaid on the child’s date of birth
- Newborn Evidence indicating the mother was enrolled on Medicaid on the child’s date of birth
The child’s eligibility for Deemed Newborn is not dependent on the mother’s continued eligibility for Medicaid. It is only a requirement for the mother to be eligible for Medicaid on the child’s date of birth.
\ Child is resident in the state
The normal residency rules are applicable to Deemed Newborns with one exception. If the child's date of birth is prior to the application date, the residency rules for the period from date of birth to the day prior to application date are ‘undetermined’ provided the residency rules pass on the application date. If the residency rules fail on the application date, they also fail for the prior period.
\ Child is eligible from Date of Birth to the end of the month in which the child turns one
Once a child has been determined eligible for Deemed Newborn they are eligible until the end of the month in which child turns one unless the child moves out of state or dies.
\ Citizenship, SSN & Income Rules
Citizenship, SSN and Income rules are not applicable to Deemed Newborns. Any changes to income do not impact a child’s ongoing eligibility for the Deemed Newborn category.
\ Display Rules
Display rules have been updated to reflect the ‘undetermined’ decision where child’s date of birth is prior to application date. A reason of ‘Deemed Newborn Eligibility’ is now displayed on the Income Counted Information section to explain why the Deemed Newborn’s financial unit members income is not counted.

- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application for a person.
- Submit and authorize application.
- End date the existing Citizen Status evidence record.
- Create a new Citizen Status evidence record that does not overlap with the existing Citizen Status record.
- The new Citizen Status record cannot be created due to the validation 'A Citizen Status record already exists for this Participant'.
Resolution:
The meta-data for the Citizen Status dynamic evidence type has been corrected, and multiple non-overlapping Citizen Status evidence records can now be added for a participant on an Insurance Affordability integrated case.

PO07742, WorkItem:227769 - Unhandled server exception occurs when attempting to place a child that is a participant of multiple intakes associated to the same investigation
Issue Description:
When multiple intakes are created for the same participants and the intakes are associated to the same Investigation case, an unhandled server exception error occurs when a caseworker attempts to create a removal record and place the child.
**User Interface Impact: **No
Steps to Reproduce:
Prerequisites:
Create an Intake case with Category: ‘Child Protection Services’, Type: ‘Child Abuse or Neglect’ and with today's date. The Intake should have two participants, the first one a minor with the role of 'Alleged Victim' and the second an adult with the role of 'Alleged Maltreater'.
The Intake should be screened in and an Investigation case created. From the Investigation case, create a new contact within the contact log before logging out of the application. Push the server date forward to the following day.
- Create a new Intake with the same details for the Intake participants as used in the prerequisites (i.e. with the same participant names) and select ‘Exact’ match on the ‘New Participant’ modal.
- From the ‘Administration’ tab of the Intake case, select the ‘Related Cases’ tab and click ‘New’.
- Click the search option (magnifying glass icon) beside the ‘Related Case Reference’ field and enter the Investigation case ID for the Investigation case created previously, search for and select it, and select to 'Save' the new case relationship.
- Select the ‘Recommendation’ tab, click ‘Capture’, select recommendation of ‘Screen In’, and submit the Intake.
- Approve the Intake and create an Investigation case.
- From the ‘Participants’ tab of the Investigation case, register both participants via the ‘Register’ option on the action menu (a date of birth and an address will be required).
- Create an Ongoing case from the Investigation case context panel action menu.
- Navigate to the ‘Removals and Placements’ tab, select 'New Removal', enter the required details and click ‘Save and Place’.
- An unhandled server exception occurs.
Resolution:
An unhandled server exception no longer occurs when a caseworker attempts to place a child who is a participant on multiple intakes associated to the same Investigation case. When the caseworker selects to place the child when creating the removal record, the ‘New Placement’ modal displays allowing the caseworker to place the child as expected.
Technical details:
A multiple record exception was occurring in the application if / when the ‘readByCaseParticipantRoleID’ operation was invoked on the ‘ContactComplianceInfo’ entity where two or more records existed for the specified case participant role. Now the ‘readByCaseParticipantRoleID’ operation on the ‘ContactComplianceInfo’ entity has been deprecated and has been replaced by a readmulti search, ‘searchByCaseParticipantRoleID’. All default calls to ‘readByCaseParticipantRoleID’ have been replaced by ‘searchByCaseParticipantRoleID’.
PO07781, WorkItem:229808 - Unhandled server exception occurs when too large a number of characters are entered into the Comments field when capturing a recommendation on an Intake case
Issue Description:
When submitting an intake for approval an Intake worker can enter comments to explain the rationale for the recommendation to either screen in or screen out an Intake. An un-handled server exception occurs when text longer than 300 characters is entered into the Comments field when capturing a recommendation on an Intake case.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a Child Welfare intake worker.
- Create a 'Child Protection Services' intake.
- Add two participants with roles as 'Alleged Victim' (for the child) and 'Alleged Maltreator'.
- Add an allegation.
- Capture recommendation information with a Recommendation of 'Screened In' and enter text larger than 300 characters into the 'Comments' field.
- Click on 'Submit'.
- An unhandled-server exception occurs.
Resolution:
When capturing a recommendation as part of an intake submission, if a comment with text longer than 300 characters is entered into the ‘Comments’ field, the intake is now submitted for approval as expected. The comment is displayed under the ‘Comments’ field on the ‘Recommendation’ screen as well as on the ’Notes’ page within the ‘Contacts’ tab. The comment is no longer displayed under the ‘Status History’ section of the ‘Administration’ tab.
Additionally when a supervisor subsequently approves, overrides, or returns a recommendation, the text entered into the ‘Comments’ field is displayed as a note on the ’Notes’ page within the ‘Contacts’ tab on the Intake case. It is no longer displayed under the ‘Status History’ section of the ‘Administration’ tab.****
Technical:
The intake recommendation comment text is now only stored on the ‘NOTE’ database table which has a character limit greater than 300 characters. The comment text is no longer stored on the ‘CASESTATUS’ table also.
PO07854, WorkItem:234204 - Browser spell check not working in Intake Narrative Smart Panel

PO07878, WorkItem:235074 - Information displayed on the 'Edit Discharge Date' modal does not default to the information previously entered when the child was initially discharged
Issue Description:
When a child is returned to the child’s own home, the caseworker enters a date of discharge from the child’s removal. This date of discharge can be modified if entered in error. On modifying the ‘date of discharge’, the information displayed on the ‘Edit Discharge Date’ modal does not default to the most recently saved information.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a Child Welfare caseworker.
- Create a new Ongoing Case for a minor.
- Create a home removal for the child, selecting a removal date and time two days in the past along with a reason and narrative text.
- Create a placement for the child.

PO03005, WorkItem:116478 - Screen Out Reason information is not saved correctly when entered during the Intake recommendation process
Issue Description:
When an Structured Decision Making Intake worker completes a Screening assessment within an Intake that results in a recommendation of 'Screen Out', the Intake worker must then enter a Screen Out Reason before submitting the intake for approval. When the Intake worker enters a Screen Out Reason and attempts to submit the Intake for approval, the Intake worker incorrectly receives a validation message indicating that no Screen Out Reason has yet been entered.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as a Structured Decision Making Child Welfare intake worker.
- Create a 'Child Protection Services' intake.
- Create participants - Alleged Victim and Alleged Maltreater.
- Select Actions > Open Intake to open the Intake case.
- Complete the Screening assessment so that no allegations are created and 'Screen Out' is recommended (answer 'No' or 'None' to all questions).
- Navigate to the Recommendations tab.
- Select the 'Add Information' action item.
- Select a Priority and Screen Out Reason, enter text into the Comments field and select to 'Save'.
- Select the 'Submit' action item within the Recommendation tab.
- Answer 'Yes' to the confirmation message 'Do you want to submit intake details for approvals?' that is displayed in the Submit Recommendation modal.
- The following error message is displayed, 'Please enter a Screen Out Reason.'
Resolution:
The 'Screen Out Reason' entered on the Add Information modal is now correctly saved and the Intake worker is able to successfully submit the Intake for approval.
Common Evidence
PO04814, WorkItem:101643 - Unable to add a person that was previously an absent parent on an Income Support integrated case to the case as a new household member
Issue Description:
Common Evidence validations prevent an absent parent that has returned from the household from being recorded on an Income Support case as a Household Member.
To correctly represent a parent's return to the household, a new Household Member evidence record is required for the returning parent and the existing Absent Parent evidence record should be end dated.
However a validation occurs because the Absent Parent evidence record is still active, so a new Household Member evidence record cannot be created. It is not possible to end date the Absent Parent evidence, so the scenario cannot be accurately recorded.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login an an Income Support caseworker.
- Create a Food Assistance case containing two parents and a child.
- For the scenario where the father moves out of the household, end date the Household Member evidence and create new Absent Parent evidence.
- Apply the changes and approve the case.
- Move the father back into the household after a few months by creating new Household Member evidence for the father.
- A validation occurs preventing the father from being added as a Household Member.
Resolution:
To resolve the above scenario, start and end dates have been added to the Absent Parent evidence entity. The Household Member validation has been updated to consider these dates when validating against Absent Parent evidence. This allows the return of absent parents to be accurately recorded on a case.
Technical:
The following changes have been made to resolve this issue:
- Nullable start and end dates have been added to the Absent Parent entity.
- The AbsentParent.xml evidence generator server meta-data file has been updated to contain reference to the new business dates on the entity.
- The AbsentParent.euim client meta-data file has been updated to reference the new start and end dates, with the start date being marked as mandatory. This ensures the dates appear on the maintenance pages.
- The following validations have been added:
- The Absent Parent start date must be specified.
- The Absent Parent start date cannot be earlier than the Absent Parent's date of birth. {Note: not checked if the Absent Parent is a Representative}
- The Absent Parent end date cannot be earlier than the start date.
- The Absent Parent record cannot overlap with an existing Household Member record for the same participant.
- The AbsentParentHook points (getDetailsForListDisplay and calcAttributionDatesForCase) have been updated to reference the new business dates.
- The AbsentParentExtensionHandler, which is called by the intake script, has been updated to default the Absent Parent start date to the application date.
Note: Taking on this change requires changing the database schema to add the business start and end dates. These new attributes will be added by the current upgrade tooling. The steps for populating the business start date for existing Absent Parent records are outlined in the Merative SPM Upgrade Guide in the chapter entitled 'Addition of business start and end dates to the Absent Parent entity'.
PO07144, WorkItem:196085 - Add a Member Guided Change Wizard cannot be used to re-add a member returning to the household
Issue Description:
When a person returns to a household, the caseworker must re-add them to any appropriate cases. To do this, the caseworker must complete a set of manual steps within the case with no guidance provided as to the correct process to follow. New evidence may need to be created or existing evidence updated.
The caseworker is unable to re-add a member to a case successfully using the Add a Member guided change wizard as it is designed for adding new members only so a manual process must be followed to re-add a member.
This impacts the caseworker as they may expect the Add a Member guided change wizard to cater for re-adding a member also. When they try to use it to re-add a member, they are blocked from doing so towards the end of the process after entering information on pages in the wizard.
User Interface Impact: Yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create an Insurance Affordability application with at least two people.
- Submit and authorize application.
- Remove one member from the household by end dating the member's Application Details and all other related evidence.
- Close any tasks that are associated with the removal.
- Add any necessary verifications and apply changes.
Sometime later the person who left the household returns and must be re-added to the case
- From the action menu select Guided Change => Add a Member.
- Search for the case participant to (re-)add (this is the person who was previously removed).
- Proceed through the steps of the wizard, completing as necessary.
- Validations prevent the caseworker being able to complete the process.
Resolution:
To improve the caseworker experience, caseworkers can now use a Re-add a Member function that reduces the number of steps required to re-add a member to a household. The function will be available from the page action menu, under Guided Change and also from the Guided Change page under the Evidence tab. The Re-add a Member function will now guide the caseworker through the process by:
- Automatically creating the evidence required to re-establish the member as an active household member. For Insurance Affordability, this is the Application Details evidence and for Income Support this is the Household Member evidence.
- Advising the caseworker as to what additional evidence should be reviewed.
As the Add a Member guided change wizard is not suitable in the scenario where a member returns to the household and is to be re-added to an ongoing case, a validation has been added which prevents an end dated member being selected on the initial case participant page of the Add a Member guided change wizard. This notifies the caseworker early in the process that they should not proceed through the wizard.
Technical:
The content of the validation message may be customized:
- /EJBServer/components/ISProduct/message/BpoAddMemberWizard.xml
- ERR_PARTICIPANT_ALREADY_MEMBER_OF_HOUSEHOLD
- /EJBServer/components/HCR/message/HCRAddMemberWizard.xml
- ERR_PARTICIPANT_ALREADY_MEMBER_OF_HOUSEHOLD
PO07467, WorkItem:211583 - Add a Member Guided Change Wizard incorrectly forces the entry of relationship information with end dated household members
Issue Description:
In an Insurance Affordability or an Income Support case when a household member is removed and a new member is added using the Add a Member guided wizard, on the Relationship page of the wizard the caseworker is asked to enter a relationship between the new member and the end dated member (who has left the household).
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker.
- Create and submit an application for two people.
- Authorize the application to create an Insurance Affordability integrated case.
- Within the integrated case, remove one of the members from the household by end dating the member's Application Details and all other related evidence.
- Close any open task associated with this removal.
- Add verifications as necessary and apply changes.
- From the tab action menu select Guided Change > Add a Member to add a new member.
- Navigate through the wizard to the Relationship page.
- On the Relationship page the caseworker is asked to enter a relationship between the new member and the person who is no longer a member of the household.
Resolution:
The Application Details evidence end date for the Insurance Affordability case and the Household Member evidence end date for the Income Support case are now taken into consideration in determining what relationships need to be entered. If the date that the new member is added to the case is after the Application Details or Household Member end date, the relationship is not displayed.
As part of this solution, when applying evidence changes, a validation is encountered if a relationship record does not exist between all members. This validation now excludes end dated members, so that a new participant can successfully be added to the household without having a relationship with a previously removed member.
PO07937, WorkItem:236639 - Person Context Panel is not updated automatically after editing person address evidence
Issue Description:
When a caseworker updates a person's address evidence and changes which address should be considered the person's 'Preferred' address, after the evidence change is saved the Content Panel is not automatically updated to display the new 'Preferred' address.
User Interface Impact: No
Steps to Reproduce:
- Login as an Insurance Affordability caseworker or Income Support caseworker.
- Register a person.
- A private address is created during the registration process and is set as the 'Preferred' address for the person.
- Open the Person record.
- Navigate to the Evidence tab and add a new address, selecting the 'Preferred' indicator to make the new address the preferred address to be displayed in the Context Panel for the person.
- The Context Panel does not refresh automatically to show the new preferred address and shows the previous address instead.
Resolution:
The address displayed in the Context Panel automatically updates to reflect any change that is made to the address evidence for the person.
Technical:
The issue has been resolved by adding the latest version of the Dynamic Evidence Address create and modify pages to the following tab files:
- ../EJBServer/components/HCR/tab/Participant/HCRPersonHome.tab
- ../EJBServer/components/HCR/tab/Participant/HCRProspectPerson
Home.tab - ../EJBServer/components/ISProduct/tab/Participant/ISPersonHome.tab

Code Removal
WorkItem:224551 - Remove the code for the Dynamic Evidence Corrections feature
In Merative Social Program Management version 7.0.2.0, a feature was delivered where a new action was added to the Dynamic Evidence editor to provide the ability to correct dynamic evidence configurations. The purpose of the feature was to provide a mechanism to correct evidence attribute descriptions, to support correction of misspellings in the original dynamic evidence type and also to support the ability to change a label text where caseworkers may prefer an alternative label name that is more intuitive to them.
A tech note was previously published to highlight the fact that this feature should not be used and was going to be removed from the product in a future release (see /support/spm/flashes/announcing-removal-of-dynamic-evidence-corrections-feature). This announcement was made as further internal testing of the original feature identified that in certain circumstances correcting dynamic evidence impacted the evidence in existence based on this dynamic evidence configuration. Following correction of the dynamic evidence configuration, the evidence resulted in failures to eligibility and entitlement calculations.
The logic for this feature has now been removed from the SPM product. For further details of the artefacts removed and modified as part of this code removal process, please refer to the 'Dynamic_Evidence_Corrections - Code Removal.pdf' document attached to this version of the SPM release notes.
WorkItem:235801 - The hamcrest-core-1.3.jar is no longer delivered as part of the REST Toolkit deliverable
The hamcrest-core-1.3.jar has been removed from the product. This was not used in any product code and will only make an impact if it has been used in the custom code.
WorkItem:237758 - Remove the code for the Provider Match with Watson feature
The Provider Match with Watson functionality has been removed from the Merative Social Program Management product. The Tradeoff Analytics service upon which this solution was built was discontinued and this led to a decision to remove the code artefacts for this feature in SPM 7.0.5.0.
For further details of the artifacts removed and modified as part of this code removal process, please refer to the 'Provider Match with Watson - Code Removal.pdf' document attached to these release notes.
Known Issues

Provider Management
WorkItem:103350 (was previously CPM-2415) - Incorrect underpayment amount created when multiple service invoice line items reassessed due to change in service rate
When there are multiple service invoice line items created and paid for a provider using a fixed amount service rate and payment option of 'pay fixed amount', if the service rate that was used to determine the payment amount is retrospectively modified, e.g. to a higher rate, underpayments are not being generated for all of the affected service invoice line items.
Outcome Management
WorkItem:114547 (was previously CC-1100) - Administration property 'curam.outcomeplanning.referralForAgreementDays' is not working as expected
Outcome Management provides the ability to create agreements where the client(s) can agree in writing to adhere to the activities (services, referrals and actions) that form part of the agreement. A system property exists to filter out referral type activities during the agreement creation process based on a number of days from when the referral was created. This property is currently not being considered when creating an agreement. To work around this issue, the user can view the start date of the referral on the create agreement wizard to determine whether the referral should form part of the agreement.
Solutions
Income Support
WorkItem:239164 - Smart navigator: Searching for Income Support application by reference number and clicking on it throwing error - No tabs configured to open a page for the criteria
Previously, when an application reference number was used to search for an Income Support application the related Income Support application tab was displayed.
Now, when Smart Navigator is enabled and an application reference number is used to search for an Income Support application, the application number is displayed within the search results returned but the following is displayed 'No Tabs configured to open a page for this criteria’ if the item is selected.
