Display Routing Destination on Bundle eForms
You can now see the routing destination in a bundle eform prior to clicking the Done task. This is applicable when you choose the route radio button in the unity indexer. Whatever destination you choose will then display in the status column of the bundle eform as, for example, "Route: Judge Review." This gives users a visual validation of the selection they made just prior to finalizing their bundle. 
 
Here is what it looks like: select route in the unity indexer and choose the judge and route option as always. 

 

After you save the unity indexer, your selected route option will appear in the status column (which used to just read "pending route"):

 Simplified CMS Integration Error Limit
We are simplifying the logic that prompts your CMS integrations to automatically pause. Previously, if you had a total of 30 items "stuck" in a variety of queues within the CMS Integration Life Cycle, your integrations would pause. This required you to monitor multiple queues (some of which you had no control over), and you had to do some mental math. With this release, once your Review queue hits 30 items--independent of any other queues--your integrations will automatically pause. 
 
Your integrations will also automatically pause if your exception queue hits 30 items (also independent of any other queue), but that queue is monitored by our vendor and requires no direct action on your part. 
 
Bug Fix: Inability to Associate Parties to Documents 
A bug was reported by courts where OnBase was not returning parties on a case, making it impossible to associate parties to documents when required. The issue had to do with a race condition between our case feed processor and receiving response messages from the CMS. This update resolves that race condition and should prevent this scenario from occurring in the future. 
 
DOCUMENT CATALOG UPDATES
 
Circuit Document Catalog Update: Adding Domestic Relations Judgment Information (FOC 100)  

Based on court feedback, we are adding the FOC 100 form (Domestic Relations Judgment Information) to the circuit document catalog. This form is regularly submitted to the court, and needs to be routed off to the FOC office, but not filed in the court file. The logic applied to this catalog item will be the same as that of the "Verified Statement." Details on the configuration are outlined below:

OnBase Doc Code: FOC100
OnBase Doc Type: CC - Not Filed
