Purpose

To allow the creation and maintenance of Person Disability Details

SubSystem

Enrolments

Person block

This form can be accessed in two ways - either directly from the Main Menu, or as part of the enrolment process, from the Record Enrolments form (ENRF3000), through the Disabilities button.

Accessing the Maintain Person Disability Details form directly from the menu allows the user to query details in the Person Detail block and retrieve a number of records one after the other.

If the form is accessed from ENRF3000 as a step in the Enrolment process, it opens with a Student ID carried forward as the context record. In these circumstances it is not possible to query any other person details.

Note: The person query function in this form is not as powerful as that in the Find Person form (ADMF1211). Names are case sensitive and are best avoided as query criteria. To avoid delays in retrieving records it is preferable to use Person ID numbers as query criteria.

The Person block displays details of the person for whom Disability information may be displayed and/or recorded.

For example, during the Enrolment process, the Disability details of the enrolling student can be checked or recorded by selecting the Disabilities button in the Record Enrolments form.

At other times, this form may be accessed directly. Individuals can be found (queried) in the Person block and Disability details recorded or checked.
