order.The top portion of the module displays information for a person. The fields in this section are display only. Field definitions can be found in Person/Org. When the user opens the module directly from the menu, the first person, in alphabetic order, will be displayed to which the user has been given access. Click on the Person Link, located at the top left hand side of the screen, to go to the Person/Org page for the selected individual.
The qualifications tab displays any qualifications previously entered for the person. Depending on their level of access, the user can add, edit and delete the qualifications from this screen. Some users can also run the Incident Qualification Card report for the person by clicking that link at the bottom of the grid.
Qualifications must not be expired and also meet fitness and refresher training requirements for the position to be current. Qualifications must meet currency requirements to either print on the Incident Qualification Card or be sent to ROSS. The qualifications displayed on this screen will print on the Incident Qualification Card ONLY if they have a position priority and are current. Use the field “PosPr'y” (Position Priority) to indicate and prioritize the qualifications that will be printed on the card. Qualifications must have a check mark in the ROSS column to be sent to ROSS.
Currency Red Flags:
The qualification expiration date must be greater than the current date for the qualification to be current. The Expiration Date for Expired qualifications is shown in RED. Qualifications that will expire within 6 months (or a value you supplied in Administration/System Settings), the expiration date is shown in YELLOW. This serves as a warning to the training manager or dispatcher to possibly get that person an assignment before the qualification expires.
Values in the PosPr'y and ROSS columns are turned RED if the Fitness or Refresher Training requirements for the position are not currently met. These checks are done only for qualifications that have a position priority value or are checked as ROSS qualifications. Hovering the cursor over the red flagged values in the PosPr'y column will allow you to see why those qualifications are not current and would not print on the Incident Qualification Card. Red flagged values in the ROSS column indicate the qualification is not current and will not be sent to ROSS. The following checks are made for each qualification and the tool tip will display a warning for each check that does not pass:
Fitness Not Current - The fitness expiration date must be greater than the current date and the fitness level must be at or above the level required for the position. Please note that this check is only done if your agency uses fitness to determine qualification currency. The value of N must be entered in the Administration/System Settings table for the row "Indicates if Fitness is ignored in determining persons qualifications.
Refresher Training Not Current - If a refresher training is required for the position, the person must have completed the refresher training within the refresher period defined for the course in the Reference Data/Courses table. The requirement for completing a refresher training starts 1 year (or whatever the refresher period is defined as) after the qualification effective date.
Non-ROSS Person -This is an additional check on the ROSS column only. If the qualification is checked as a ROSS qualification, but the person is not checked as a ROSS person in the Person/Org screen, the ROSS column will be flagged as this qualification will not go to ROSS until the person is checked as a ROSS person.
NOTE: Clicking the mouse on most of the qualification column headings will allow the user to sort by that column in ascending or descending order.
