RF_PV_GROUP_HIRCHY |
Define parent child hierarchy for a specific provider group. |
Use the Group Hierarchy page (RF_PV_GROUP_HIRCHY) to define parent child hierarchy for a specific provider group.
There can be multiple parents for a child. Also, there can be many child provider groups for a parent thereby establishing “Many to Many” relationship. One Provider Group can’t be configured as the child and parent for the same time period.
Note: The provider group hierarchy is applicable only for secured cases.
Provider group hierarchy can be defined by means of Group Hierarchy page or inserting data using SQL.
To enable provider group hierarchy feature, perform the following:
Activate the Service Operation RC_PG_LOAD_CHILD
Run Group Hierarchy Report process (Workforce, Group Hierarchy Report). The Group Hierarchy Report process should be run each time the service operation RC_PG_LOAD_CHILD status is altered.
