HCM v1.5 Release Notes

Release Summary

HCM v1.5 is a product release with upgrades for a new campaign adaptation such as IRS.

Features:

• Enhancement of DIGIT HCM for managing a new campaign such as IRS.

• Enhancement to provide the ability to link downloaded households to new campaigns.

• The product has been enhanced to capture information related to house structure, room details, and the number of pregnant women and children present in the house independent of the campaign type.

• Enhanced accuracy for geo coordinates capture in the app.

• Enhancement of DSS dashboards for new campaign adaption.

• Enhancement to provide the ability to view dashboards for District Supervisors in the mobile application.

Functional Changes

• Closed Household: This feature enables data collection on closed households by utilizing the existing registration and delivery package. It allows CDDs (Community Drug Distributors) to revisit households for registry updates efficiently.

• Registration and Delivery: Added intermediate screens to enhance registration of households to support new campaigns.

• User Action: Full CRUD functionality for project-related actions taken by the field worker that are not tasks related to the beneficiary like:

  • Refusal of consent for data collection.

  • Scanning of resources that will be reused for multiple deliveries.

  • Marking a transit post-non-compliant (polio).

  • Marking any incident that doesn't bear relation to the beneficiary.

  • Location capture of the field worker app.

• Dashboard Updates:

  • Mobile Dashboard: Enabled the mobile dashboard for district supervisors and configured the Digit UI DSS Dashboard to support new campaigns (e.g. IRS).

  • National Dashboard Enhancements: Introduced support for pie charts and bar charts.

  • Map Configurations: Moved map configuration data to S3 assets.

  • Chart Configurations: Added and modified chart configurations for both the Mobile and DSS Dashboards (e.g., IRS), including both new and existing charts.

• Tech Debts

  • Search Query Optimization: Enhanced search queries across the mobile application for improved performance.

  • Boundary Localizations: Migrated boundary localizations from the ISAR (JSON) database to an SQL database in the mobile application for better efficiency.

Non-Functional Changes

• Pop-ups have been added to various screens to improve geo-coordinate accuracy within the app. These pop-ups will display a message and temporarily freeze the screen, allowing users to capture a person's geo-coordinates without disruption.

Breaking Changes

• No breaking changes were made.

Benefits - v1.5

• Configurable Project Dashboard: Previously, project dashboard configurations were hardcoded. Now, they are fully configurable based on boundary v2 and project-type codes.

• Removal of Hardcoded Context Paths: All hardcoded context paths have been removed throughout the application, improving flexibility and maintainability.

• Map Config Data Moved to S3: Due to the large size of the map configuration data, it could not be loaded into MDMS v2. This data has now been moved to S3 assets for better handling and storage.

• Search Query Enhancement: Previously, each entity had its own individual search. Now, we have implemented a unified query builder, which has significantly improved the performance of the search functionality.
