Notes

Text boxes for notes or comments are included in many pages in AJL. Separate specific notes functions are available on Case Details, Enrollment Details, Program Details, and Employer Details; a Related Link for notes is also available on the Needs and Barriers page.

Client Notes on Case Details is designed to provide a high-level record of the client's participation in job search activities. Use Client Notes to record information that would be helpful to other one-stop partners providing services.

Notes specific to the client's participation with a specific program, perhaps of a more sensitive nature, can be recorded in Program Notes on the Program Details page or in Enrollment Notes on the Enrollment Details page, where they will be accessible to ServiceLink users with privileges to the specific program or enrollment. Needs and Barriers notes, accessed from Enrollment Details, is another option.

Employer Notes, accessed from the Employer Details page, are viewable by and available to all ServiceLink partners.

Notes cannot be edited. Notes can be deleted by users with privileges for deleting notes. These privileges are set by the AJL administrator based on state policy and procedure.
