Case-Manager-Assignment-Cheat-Sheet.pdf
Every HMIS user in ClientTrack is assigned “Case Manager” access, regardless of their role or job title at their agency. The assigned case manager inside ClientTrack is the HMIS user assigned to that client’s enrollment in a given program. A client can have multiple case managers assigned to their enrollment(s).
The case manager is automatically assigned to the HMIS user completing the intake (entry/enrollment) assessment for a client.
Locate the neighbor using Find Client, once on the client’s dashboard select Profile and then Case Managers.

Case manager assignments are grouped.
By hovering over the question mark, one can see all the active assignments.

On the Case Manager Assignments page, select “Edit Case Assignment” next to the previous case manager for the enrollment.

Add an End Date for the assignment, and set the Status to “Inactive”

Now the assignment shows that the case manager is inactive on the date selected.

To add the new case manager, select “Add Case Assignment”.

Select the Start Date, Case Manager’s Name, the appropriate Enrollment and set the Status to Active for the assignment.

Once you select Save you will see the updated Case Manager Assignment.

On the neighbor’s dashboard under the Enrollments section, locate the enrollment for your project, edit the project entry workflow via the three dots.

Continue through the workflow to the HUD Program Enrollment page and select the search button for the Case Manager assignment(s) you wish to change.

Search for the Case Manager by inputting their name.
Select the Case Manager you wish to assign to the enrollment.

Once the new Case Manager is selected, you will see the update on the HUD Program Enrollment page.
Select “Save” and continue through the workflow.

The Client Files feature functions as a system-wide digital file cabinet for items related to an individual client. Documents saved on the Client Files feature are shared in the same way as enrollment records, meaning other organizations will be able to access files you place on the client’s record using Client Files.
It can be extremely helpful to our clients to upload identification documents to Client Files. It is hard to keep track of these documents and they are required for several types of services and interventions. Using ClientTrack to help clients manage their documents is an easy way for us to take advantage of the system to provide additional support to our neighbors!
NOTE: NEVER upload CAS documentation to Client Files, especially verification of disability or any document containing HIPAA sensitive information, such as a diagnosis. Use Document Check for these types of documents and file.
1. Log in to ClientTrack and navigate to your Clients Workspace.

2. Find your client by searching using their name or client ID.
