3.    It’s time... Through request to your supervisor, please encourage your department to reach out to your closest implementation team member or supervisor to discuss known considerations for changes to business processes that will be impacted by IRIS. Implementation team members (right hand side) are located at: http://www.riverwoodcenter.org/suimplementation  ...and don’t worry; the Implementation team with PCE, supervisors, and soon, Super Users, have been and will be working hard to help guide all staff through this process.
4.    Interested in form specifications? Feeling curious? All IRIS-updated documents are now located on the S drive at “S:\IRIS - Do Not Edit - Changes Tracked\(!) 2016 07 - IRIS Final Specs - Do Not Edit” - - - Staff can download, copy, and print from this folder for you or your staff to read and get acclimated to, though this is optional at this point.

Week of 8/23

1.    Documentation must be closed-out and dashboards cleared by 9/30 at noon; 5pm at the absolute latest (through strongly not recommended). As much as is possible needs to be cleared out well in advance so that the system doesn’t freeze up with an “11th hour” rush to finish work in Streamline.

3.    All transfers must be complete by 9/26 to allow time for them to be worked.

4.    All discharges for Customer Service must be complete on 9/16.

5.    BHTeds and Health History backlogs cannot be pushed forward to other staff to work in the last week before goLive, 9/26. This will create a backlog for those work is pushed forward to.
