The following is a full list of changes for CourtStream version 5.3.0. If you have any feedback regarding this release please email us at support@bizstream.com or just make a comment at the bottom of this blog post. Any and all feedback, suggestions, bug/error reports are welcome.

BizStream Application

User Security

New: The security model has been completely redesigned in order to give BizStream Administrators granular control over who can do what throughout the system. If you're an administrator you can see the new security model by clicking Tools > Manage CourtStream > Manage Application Security and User Lists.
New: The name of the Detention module is now editable

System Log

New: A new application called System Log has been created that records and displays various system level events. Things that will show up in this log include User Login/Logout Attempts, User Profile/Group Changes, Password Changes, Security/Permission Changes, etc. It's only available to administrators by clicking Tools > Manage CourtStream > System Log.

Menu

Update: The menu, it's groups, and sub menu items have been redesigned.

Communicate, Manage My Work, and My Daily Items have been combined into a single BizStream group.
With the Menu on Top, we've added commonly used links in order to get you to where you want to go with less clicking. For example, you can mouse over Case Manager and click on Reports without actually opening Case Manager first.
In an effort to help you find what you're looking for more quickly (and because we think it looks nice) we've added icons next to the sub menu items. (Currently only available when your menu is "On the top").

Other

Update: Minor bug fixes
Update: Many enhancements for speed of access.

Attachment Uploading

Update: Commas are now allowed in file names
Update: Users may now rename the uploaded file at the time of uploading. This helps with taking files from digital cameras with nonsense filenames. (DSC01234.jpg)

CourtStream 5.2.6 Major Features

dwilliams — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 20:33:00 GMT

This entry is to highlight some of the major features released with version 5.2.6

The addition of the Facility application is one of the most significant. All facility related items will be managed from this new menu item, including meals, medications not specific to a client, and the Detention Daily Log.

Meal Count gives administrators the ability to track daily meal counts. Meal types are specified by the administrator, including as many, or as few, as desired.
Facility Medication manages medication not directly associated with a specific client. Searches of all medication actions can also be performed here.
The Daily Log has been moved. Access to the daily log is still available from the Detention application, but you will be forwarded to the Facility section of the site.

A client tab has been added to both Detention and Case Manager. This tab will contain the "current client", and will provide and easy way to move between tabs and applications while still keeping track of the client you are currently working with.

Many of the reports have been reformatted to improve readability and formatting.

Please see this post for the full change list

This feature allows you to add an email, phone number and job title for the contact.
