Community Order Enhancement for the ASB System
Portsmouth City Council is very much at the forefront of requesting new features to handle the changes in the law which they implement
We have a Legal Actions sub menu, which allows users to add Injunctions, Community Protection Orders, Environmental Protection Orders, Closure Orders and Dispersal Orders but until now, we have not included Community Orders.
Our Portsmouth customer sent us the details of Community Orders immediately after the Christmas break, and by the Friday of that week, we had a new Action Button, new Screen format and new Pick List options to meet the need.
The new Community Orders screen is a no-cost, customer requested addition which allows the Caseworks user to
1. Link to the correct person in the case (a default option is preselected)
2. Record the supervision requirement
3. Options to include Unpaid Work, Courses, Drug rehabilitation, Alcohol treatment, Curfew, Defined address, Banned activity, Mental health help and requirement to attend at a center.
4. Victim Surcharge,
5. Costs
6. Free text area to amplify the above.
When the page is saved, the Community Order will appear in the Alerts at the top of the Case Page, providing it has not expired.
