Test live versions on the dev server.
When the user logs in, she see her list of cases. The default view displays open cases with the option to show closed cases. Closed cases are distinguished by a light grey background. Other options on this page include searching cases and jumping to a specific case given its case number.

Admin Functions - "Super users" is that evolving list of people who are automatically assigned to every case. In the current database you need me to make changes to the list. In this version control is ceded to you.
Mostly, this page is a way for the user to navigate to a specific case. Click a case number to get something like the following screen shot.
Imagine a page like this for each tab. They resemble their database counterpart with one change — the case details run down the left side rather than the top. Users click "My Cases" to return to the previous page.

Christopher is researching how to implement M Key authentication on this site. He'll report back on May 5.
Peoplesoft Connection
Christopher is solving for how we transition the current Incident Abroad database to look to Peoplesoft for student info (name, program, track, term) rather than our legacy FileMaker databases.
I will also be clearing up the current issue of whether we can require the emplID as part of the submitter requirements in the data entry process.
This looks great! As we talked about, it would be great to be able to reference the documents from the discussion tab. Maybe just a link within the discussion topic to the document referenced and housed in the document tab?
Also, thanks for keeping me updated on the new deadlines for the coming steps. I really appreciate all your good work!
For Phase II, consider changing how the Log, Discussion and Tasks tabs are used. Users are not using the Task tab as we intended, or rather, they're not using it at all. I'm thinking Log will be purely machine-generated notes. Discussion becomes the user-generated content. Mimic the functionality of the old Macy's BTI Discussion Tab which was very popular with users. They could record their notes in the application plus shoot e-mails to a hand-picked list directing them to the note.
