  1. When custom fields are added in Clarity Human Services, they are not available to customers with the Customer Data Model (SQL) unless they specifically ask Bitfocus to add them, one field at a time. It would be great if these fields could "automatically" be added and available in the Customer Data Model without having to have a separate request. This automation could occur on a regular daily/weekly/monthly schedule which makes most sense.

  2. For VSPs who use system admins outside of their agency, there are concerns with client privacy based on this line from the database manual.

    "Access to a comparable database is controlled by the VSP. Only staff who work directly with survivors and have a “need to know” professional basis, their supervisors, and agency administrators should be able to view specific client data"

    With this in mind, a new access role for admins of comparable databases using Clarity is being suggested. this access role should allow admins to log into Clarity and pull aggregate reports such as APRs, SPMs, LSA data…

  4. Currently, Inventory screens are system-level screens that cannot be copied. For a statewide instance of Clarity, each CoC operates as a separate system. Each CoC manages its housing stock, they have separate CE systems, and reporting is completed by each CoC.

    Each CoC may want to implement Inventory but need to record different information using custom fields on the housing inventory screens.

    Since the Inventory screens cannot be copied, each CoC would either need to agree on a set of custom fields, see each other's fields, or use complex constraints and configurations to hide the fields from each CoC, making…

  5. Hello! A manager asked me if I could add additional custom fields to the Contacts Page. In addition to changing the Contact Type field, for example we could add things such as a mark that one person is a preferred emergency contact when in crisis (or alternately, if it isn't feasible to add custom fields to the Contacts page, adding this as an additional optional field to all of them). Would it be possible to add something like this? We work in a program where we need to store a lot of contacts for the client, but not all of…

  6. There should be a bulk delete option for services attached to programs. Some clients have over 100 services attached and it is a pain to delete them one by one in order to delete the program from the system.

  7. Considering the communication limitations within Clarity, it would be highly beneficial for the end user to be able to see a consolidated list of their assigned clients that have an active referral to a housing program. Ideally, the end user would receive a notification when one of their clients has been matched to a program, as well as see this on the client profile home page.

  9. Communities sometimes have the need to track Profile screen data and HUD data in other non-HUD specified collection points, which means adding these existing fields to additional screens and being able to report on those additional collection points. Please consider this update.

  11. The customer would like to expand the logic of how the DIT overwrites data being imported to be more than just going by the most recent date in the "DateUpdated" field: "We have several systems that do not collect Race/Ethnicity/Veteran status, and we would hate to overwrite thousands of good quality race/eth/vet records to NULL.... It has been a challenge having to clean it up with each new dump. And cleanup is necessary because these are HUD fields and affect HUD reporting..." Perhaps make the data overwrite process more customizable?

  12. Our user had a great idea to create a flag/alert for users who are about to enter a client into a similar program

    For example: Emergency Shelters often have "Overlapping Enrollments" with other Agencies who have ES programs that clients may still remain active after they have left. ES program staff are asking for a flag/alert that may pop up if they are entering a client into a the same program type where the client may still be active in another program of the same type.

  13. The System Administrator should have the option to update the background color of the Warning Message section from light grey to a darker color (such as marron, navy, or emerald). This update will benefit the users who are visually impaired.

  15. When someone enters their password incorrectly too many times, the system tells them they are "banned" and to try again later but doesn't say when. I have been told that when you are banned, the system locks you out for two hours, and if you try to log in again during that two hour window, the clock restarts. Not telling the user this in the ban alert means that they may try to log back in in 5 minutes or half an hour, etc., and have no idea that they are pushing their ability to log in for another two…

  16. Longitudinal Systems Analysis Report Clarity integration with HUD LSA validation flags and errors

    The key idea is that a user wouldn't need to leave the Clarity app to submit an LSA and receive the LSA report flags. Flags are ingested into Clarity, and the Clarity UI can help resolve the flags.

    “It seems like if you’ve got control of the LSA Export compiler, and if you’re hashing (storing a persistent record) of the data going into it, it would be simple to connect the dots backward to the origin of the error.

    Right now, everyone in the country is doing…

  17. Some agencies use Global HHIDs to track characteristics of households they serve over multiple enrollments, however, not all clients have a Global HHID. Even for households of one, it would helpful if these were assigned and if documentation were provided to CoCs about how a Global HHID changes as the household composition changes.

  18. Allow for a filter option in the outreach module map view to either show the clients location based on their most recent geolocation (current functionality), OR show clients everywhere that they have been contacted in a given time period. Currently, encampments often look underreported when they have a population that frequently moves between encampments. Showing all locations will help to correct this.

  19. Rather than having a text field for geocodes, it would be more convenient for admins to have a picklist of available geocodes. To limit the geocodes that appear in picklists, perhaps the full set of HUD geocodes be established as a System Variable setting where admins could choose which geocodes would appear in geocode picklists.
