@here Welcome to another new channel! Just what you always wanted 🙂 This channel is only for important announcements and business (and conversations in reply threads that are related to the parent item). Please keep an eye on this channel as it will be where I post anything that needs urgent attention or you need to be made aware of.
No memes, gifs, or side conversations here.
@here Boxes are available on the table by the TV for your personal items
*Thread Reply:* When do we have to pack up by? Should we be taking these items home Friday and just returning with them on Monday?
*Thread Reply:* The current plan is for the move to happen this weekend, so yes. I am going to follow up with Tony today to make sure that is the case and try to get a new floor plan
@here I have received more information about where we are moving. We will be taking the row of cubes immediately next to us. There are 12 cubes in this row, rather than 10 like in the current row we are in. Please keep the two "extra" cubes together as they will probably be going to the supervisors for the other departments we share the room with OR two of the new Flatirons team.

@here I was just notified that those of you who sit on the left side of our cube row will be moving tomorrow morning. Please pack up your personal items first thing in the morning when you get in. I suggest everyone do this just in case they want to move us on the right side also tomorrow afternoon
@here sorry for the inconvenience everyone
I am completely confused. Seems like there is conflicting information jest 6 minutes apart. Move or no move? If move, is it where we filled out on the Google Sheets chart from yesterday?
Oh, sorry one was from 8:08 pm, the other message from 8:03 am. So no move for any of us in our department as of your message at 8:03am today? Correct?
Yeah, I got that other message late last night from Tony. Then just now he said no need to move
Ok. Sorry, dyslexia kicked into overdrive with all the moving background activity.
@here Reminder that tomorrow is Floral Friday 💐 If you would like to be a part of the group photo, please wear something with a floral pattern that is within the scope of the dress code

@here Training tomorrow morning 10:30_12:30 for AFFF audits. We will be doing AFFF audits daily until we clear through the backlog starting next week. Everyone will have to rotate taking a turn doing audits. This one is pretty straight forward and medium length.
I am putting in an office supply request tomorrow at noon. Please send me a message with anything you need before then.

*Thread Reply:* Thanks everyone. There are supposed to be attorneys in today for Meadow and SGGH. Someone call or text me if the attorneys need anything from me specifically. If Cameron or Becker ask, I have one of their benchmarks done and I just have to copy it for the other 2 case types.

@here Reminder, huddle in ~4 min in conference room 2
@here Reminder meeting about AFFF PFSs happening in a few minutes
@here Very important that you are not spending time chasing people who are not signed. If they are not signed, ACTS is not representing them in the suit.
@here My 1 was pushed to 1:30. Info from seating arrangement meeting: • Edward will likely be moving to the integrations room so that he can be closer to McFadden, no timeline on this yet • The two empty desks next to PD will be used as "training stations" for new PD agents. They will be there for their first 30 days before moving into a more permanent seat. • We do not otherwise need to move anywhere. If the above point with PD becomes a volume issue, we can slide everyone down when Edward moves and I will sit next to the PD trainees Questions?
*Thread Reply:* My sad emoji is in reaction Edward leaving but he will always be with us
*Thread Reply:* @deleted-U072JS2NHRQ ?
*Thread Reply:* Edward is always welcome as an honorary member of the department
*Thread Reply:* They're the department we have crossover episodes with
*Thread Reply:* Thank you! no questions, just curious what was happening lol
*Thread Reply:* @deleted-U072JS2NHRQ Integrations currently only has the one seat available for Edward, so if you move to the Flatirons team, we will have to figure something out with that
*Thread Reply:* I'll gladly stay out of that cave lol
*Thread Reply:* Condemned to the Sarlac pit!
@here Would switching LV AGENT ## to human names in LawRuler cause anyone issues?
@here Cameron asked me to express his appreciation to you guys for building the LA County Claimants googlesheet and working so diligently on it! He says "THANK YOU" and had a big smile on his face after he got out of his meeting with ACTS and Dicello. Also, FYI he will be joining us in our meeting tomorrow with Nations and CaseWorks.

@here As a "Thank you!" for all of your efforts working on the Flatirons and AFFF requests last week, I have been approved to order lunch for everyone. I will do so for Friday during our huddle. I have a budget that I need to stay within, but I want to let you guys suggest some food options and we can vote. Please post any cuisine type/food place suggestions as a REPLY to this thread by tomorrow at 12pm. We will vote tomorrow afternoon.
**This has nothing to do with the Paylocity surveys
*Thread Reply:* Something light Lobster tail and some 24k gold steak
*Thread Reply:* my favorite food is dollar bills, $100's preferably considering we saved the company millions, but alas - they hate us.
I'm good with pizza, brownies, salads, or sandwiches. 👍:skintone3:
*Thread Reply:* Anything asian or Mediterranean; also can't go wrong with chicken or any type of finger food 🙂
*Thread Reply:* Honestly just anything protein heavy (not limited to meat, can be beans/greens/etc)
*Thread Reply:* I got beans, greens, potatoes, tomatoes Lamb, rams, hogs, dogs :pineapple_dance:
Port of Subs is always good, but a little pricey. I got a platter for 10, cost about $83 for the last party. So, if you order subs there assume $8.30 (ish.) per person.

If my order is too much for the budget, then just the 2nd Pic, "Chow Fun"
I noted it down. I will see what is left over after we get all of the entrees in and then open it up to sides/appetizers/etc.
The website says they aren't open today, so I will give them a call tomorrow to ask about their lunch pricing. It seems like everything is $9.99 for lunch, which would allow us to get a little something extra if that is the case
Ok. You might get a discount on a bulk order. We can always threaten to have them raided. I have a food handlers card. LOL
Yeah, I have to see when I call them tomorrow. I would have called them today if I could 🤷♀️
@here Lunch is ordered and should be delivered around noon tomorrow! I have booked conference room 2 for our huddle.

@here Message from IT. Please review.
@here Heads up! I don't know how much we will be involved in this process, but I expect I will be assigning 2-3 people per day (we can rotate, or you can volunteer to do it all week if you prefer) for reconciliations 🥲
Integrations is finishing up a large backfill and data dump to DL, and then we will all be working together to reconcile DL's system and make sure they have all of the clients that they should have from us. Our focus will be on the non-Flatirons campaigns and it will be a large undertaking. This is not an urgent fire, but DL likes everything done yesterday, so we will have to work diligently on this until it is completed.
I will have more information after our alignment meeting on Monday.
@here We have a new request from Cameron due end of day on Friday! I need to check in with some others about the DL reconciliation also and then I will figure out how to split the workload. Stay tuned! 📺
*Thread Reply:* this week is shaping up to have me rip out someone elses hair (martins) isn't it?
@here Short meeting at 12:45 in conference room 1 (by the front lobby) to discuss safeguarding PII
@here Updates on our special requests for this week:
DL all client reconciliation: They have so far only sent over the Flatirons campaigns for reconciliation and have not yet sent us the non-Flatirons. We will hopefully get this tomorrow so we can start on our piece. I will be having meetings at 9 am every day with the DL team to discuss the status of the reconciliation and any issues we see arising. They have a dedicated person there now who is responsible for reviewing the discrepancies and resolving them (so deleting dupes, fixing incorrectly entered client profiles, adding in new clients, etc).
Cameron's Request: We will begin working on this today after weekly reports are done to get a head start on it since we have the reconciliation also this week. This should be a relatively quick thing to set up since we are only providing default fields (Intake ID and e-sign date), so we will not need to mess around with different layouts and custom IDs. There are 13 different cases that he has requested these reports for, so that's ~2 each. I will be working on getting the googlesheets set up and planned out while weekly reports are finished and then we can start pulling the requested data.
*Thread Reply:* By dedicated FI Team do you mean the one they call Edward?
*Thread Reply:* I'm not sure what you're asking about. Edward is the dedicated Flatirons person here. On DL's side, I don't know if they have a dedicated Flatirons person, but they have a person who is responsible for making the changes/updates (for all clients, not just Flatirons) in Litify
*Thread Reply:* Previously when we have sent them reconciliation stuff, they have either not taken action on it or expected us to fix it. Integrations no longer has Litify access or the ability to make changes, so someone on DL's side is going to do that
*Thread Reply:* Sorry I use DL and FI interchangeably. So when you say meet with the DL team, like Abe and them?
*Thread Reply:* I don't know if Abe is going to be on these calls. It's some of their data people and their data consulting people, mainly. He is invited, but I doubt his schedule will allow for him to show up every day
@here Small update to the above Cameron's Request. I clarified with him and he would like any non-Flatirons Dicello clients included in separate tabs (I believe this mainly affects Hair Relaxer and one of the counties in CA, don't remember which)
@here Conference room 1 for meeting
@here For Malissa's weekly reports going forward, please remove signed & declined clients and only include clients who have passed the QA check (this includes signed e-sign billable declined by firm and signed e-sign client opt out)
@here Don't forget to refresh the pivot table....not automatic.....
@here I am finishing up the instructions & planning doc for Cameron's request. If you have any preferences for cases, please assign yourself to 1 or 2 of them. Instructions should be finished up in about 10 min
*Thread Reply:* Instructions completed, please begin working as soon as you are done with any weekly reports
@here Regarding Cameron's reports: I have completed my 2 (IL and MD juv hall). If you have any questions about formatting, please feel free to check them out or ask me any questions. Illinois Juv Hall example Maryland Juv Hall example Additionally, please indicate in some way when you are done with your cases on the Instructions and Planning sheet
California Juvenile Hall Abuse Los Angeles County is completed!
I am walking in now. I have a meeting that I am taking at my desk. Please slack any questions and I will respond when I can
@Carter Matzinger has joined the channel
@here I am taking my 9am with DL at home and then I will be in afterwards. Can someone get started on this while I am in the meeting?
*Thread Reply:* Does he only want the ones in final status? There are 2 in house flag as well
*Thread Reply:* Okay there are 2 showing as house flag on the TIP dashboard but are signed e-sign final on our end:
*Thread Reply:* Do we want all fields? Should I add a pivot table?
*Thread Reply:* Leave those in. Don't worry about the status in the dashboard, that can be fixed easily. All fields. Cameron likes a pivot table 🙂
@here Please check the fridge for any forgotten food items. Please be sure to label any food items you want to leave for more than a day with your name and date.
@here We will not be working on the non-Flatirons reconciliation for DL at this time. They prefer to focus on the Flatirons for now and are not currently concerned with their old cases. If Edward needs assistance on the Flatirons reconciliation, we may jump in to assist him.
Thank you @deleted-U04GZ79CPNG & team 🥺. Right now I think I am in a healthy place 🙂
We are always here to lend a helping hand, @deleted-U06C7A8PVLJ!

We have a new employee who needs to be able to get around the office and has some difficulties with the doors. Thank you for helping to ensure we have a welcoming and accessible space for all!
Huddle in ~10 min, conference room 2
@here I mentioned this in the huddle, but here is another reminder that Cameron and Marc will be in office all next week.
@here I know we talked about propping the internal doors for ease of access for all, but that applies only to the internal doors!
@here FYI. I know I don't have to worry about you all conducting yourselves professionally.
@here I have a (hopefully) straight forward task that we will be assisting Integrations with for Meadow Law. I will need 1-2 people who would like to assist on this. We have to look at the question sets in LR and identify which ones are "duplicates" and are asking for the same info in a different custom field. We do not have to do anything with the data in those fields (integrations will do this). We will also ensure the match ups between these fields and Meadow's fields look correct. Any volunteers? Please reply here or DM me. I have some supporting documentation from Dustin already that we can use to get started
*Thread Reply:* I will send you guys a separate DM with more info
@here I have another task to be completed by Friday. I will need 2 people on this. We need to add in decline reasons for all of the Meadow Law declined clients (341 when I checked earlier). There will be new fields added where PD can select the reason the file was declined from a dropdown and where they can input the date it was declined. We can get decline dates out of the database or activity log, but we will need to read the notes on the files to get the reason the file was declined.
We will update the dropdown and date fields via the import wizard once we are ready.
I would like to send over a preliminary report for their review on Friday and they would like the reporting to go live next week on Friday (8/22).
Any volunteers?
*Thread Reply:* I can help once I'm done with everything today
*Thread Reply:* We have the fields added to the Meadow campaigns now, so we can start when you are ready! Let me know
@here NEC has a court deadline coming up. It's time to go hard on auditing and sending those over! I think the main time sink will be the authorizations, so I will be scheduling a training on that tomorrow so that we can have some people generating auths while others are auditing. We will also be able to really stress test the automated auditing program for NEC!
*Thread Reply:* Wouldn't most of us be doing the auths? I thought the audit itself was automated? Did we not automate the authorizations as well?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TLlF833x26p35hBagnWYIGPCNl0-zlZT53Z0CRDtYbs/edit?usp=sharing Columns and which exhibit they go in
@here Joe just came by to thank us for all of our hard work and dedication, so THANK YOU! He also gave us some chocolates that we can enjoy during our huddle on Friday 🙂
@here NEC auth video of meeting yesterday: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JF39sS690zRlsaV5ggOUe1jcxZaVVQGo/view?usp=drive_link
@here NEC audit update: I am halfway through the final column. I don't really expect more errors here since they can have unknowns, so for auth purposes, you can consider it fully audited. Error sheet will be created tomorrow and sent to agents. There are 67 errors, with most of them being the breast milk/donor breast milk inconsistency. That means we will be able to send ~500 files to DL this week 🙌
@here Some updates to the NEC list: DL closed out some more clients and we have 3 new ones that were added. See attached. I will go through and pull out the ones in the GoogleSheet that are now closed out.
*Thread Reply:* @deleted-U04GZ79CPNG is the yellow the closed ones?
*Thread Reply:* Some of the ones you already completed need to be pulled out (sorry!). I made them a dusty rose if they were done and the bright pink if they were not yet completed
@here Any lead IDs that are PINK are ones that are now closed out on DL's side. Please do not make auths for them
@here Conference room schedules are a little packed today. Please vote on huddle time: 12:30pm 🔴 1pm :largeyellowcircle: 1:30pm 🔵
@here Paul made some helpful tools for the authorization creation:
@here IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION FOR NEC AUTHS: All clients need exhibit B and exhibit C filled out. The child being living or deceased is irrelevant for this. The only difference for the living/deceased children is that they have a different wording for the representative in the body of text which has nothing to do with how the documents are filled out.
I mentioned it so you were aware of it (and ideally so you could check to make sure the correct document was signed, but don't worry about that for now to minimize confusion). This is why I wanted to stick to my goal of going over how to fill out the documents during our meeting and not get side tracked in the middle of it.
If there are ANY facilities listed in the fields relating to the birth mother, they MUST be in the exhibit C auths, even if it's the same facility in an exhibit B auth. If there are duplicates within the exhibit C section, you do not need to make more than one auth for those.
Please go back and fix any clients where you did not create exhibit C auths properly. Please let me know if you have questions.
@here Just to piggyback off of that^
These are the columns that are only applicable to Exhibit B which I posted in the Stats & Reporting chat and pinned: P R U V W X Y AA AB AC AD AE AF AG AH AI AJ AL AN AP AR AT AV AX AZ BB BD BF BH BJ BL BN - DA
These are the columns that are applicable to Exhibit C: BQ BT BW BZ CC CF CI CLCO CR CU CX
Column H: Baby Date of Birth for Exhibit C page 2.
I got these from Brittany's spreadsheet that she shared with us: Exhibit Guidelines by Column
*Thread Reply:* Oh yeah, that's the way I've been doing them like you showed me.

@here are the NEC PFS guidelines for each of the Exhibits (B and C) and what should be in each field.
We find it on LawRuler if we need it and can't find it elsewhere cuz i don't think it's in the google sheet
Birth mother's SSN is gathered in the profile in LR. It is not part of the PFS questions so it is not in the report I pulled
If someone wants to pull that field as a report to help out, that's would be good
If someone can send me a link to a profile I can put that in one of my columns and quick automate just clicking on a link to go to the profile for each person
@deleted-U08E306T7SM The form question re found in LR on Form/General Case Questions.
@deleted-U072B7ZV4SH, if someone would talk to me you can EXACTLY how what I did will help.
This channel is for constructive conversations only.
Here is the report with the birth mother's info. It is not filtered.
In my sheet ("351 - 400 Paul"), column "DE". I have a "Lead Link". This is relative for every row of the "Lead ID" for column "A". Basically, you click on the link and it will open the Law Ruler profile if needed. Feel free to copy that and put it in your sheet. As mentioned before, there are several other shortcuts in the following columns that can help everyone. If no one wants to discuss this with me, I gave Aidan a quick demo on the tools and he has access to them. Enjoy!
Also @here I forgot that this document (shown in pic) should also be in the folder IF it's in the Google Drive: We don't need to do any editing to the PDF itself, but sometimes there will be multiple files in there for the clients. Sometimes this file will be one of them and we need to include this in the Google Drive folder.
Please do not look at anything I have in the shared Google Drive for the "Auths" in "Completed". This information is based on the initial instructions I verbally received prior to the clarification Aidan posted for Exhibit B and Exhibit C and the two column sets used for each Exhibit. My initial output I posted assumed if the child was deceased then no Exhibit C filled in, which we now also know is not correct. Sorry for the inaccuracies in my output, but I was going off what I was verbally told and was in assumption was the correct procedure. I will work on the fix Monday after my Monday reports. I would have had some corrections posted already, but was in 3 meetings for 3.5 hours since 13:30.
Good morning everyone. I have to prep for a series of important meetings about the next few months and a plan for AFFF. Please hold all non-urgent matters until around 11am
@here For the new reports that were added this week, please work on the ones that were assigned out to you for today. We will revisit this tomorrow and I will make the official assignments for the future
@here Meeting to discuss/plan path forward for NEC, AFFF, etc. at 12:30pm. Invite will be coming out shortly.
@here Anyone whose reports were affected by the address issue, please reference this sheet here for the correct addresses to fix the reports.
@here It would appear that my batch of Monday Reports will be somewhat delayed this morning. There are a number of the MAL file attachments that open with errors and/or 0 records which definitely doesn't match tip and others with no Pivot tables which will need to be made manually. It looks like the AG reports can be validated and uploaded and I'll start with those. The others will take a little extra time.....
*Thread Reply:* Thank you for the heads up. Please let me know how many reports are affected and give me an update before our meeting later with how the manual fixes are going
*Thread Reply:* Will do.....am in the process of uploading what worked and then I'll address those that fell down. Current count of manual edits stands at 8...Video Gaming Sextortion seems to be the majority. I'll be in touch....
*Thread Reply:* Ok. Thank you for the info. 8 isn't too bad. Please let me know an hour before you leave if there are any that still need attention
*Thread Reply:* I'll be able to let you know within this hour....I've still got NEC to finish today, if at all possible.....
Meeting reminder, 4 min! In Conf 2 (the one near us)
@here AFFF refresher at 11 and 1:30
@here I will be putting in a supply order this week. Does anyone need anything? Please let me know before you leave today so I can put in the order tomorrow
*Thread Reply:* Oh! Brittany, i forgot to say, I asked about a grid lining paper (i asked kimberly if they had any extra in stock) but she said if we needed something, to send it to Sean and put an amazon link - did you want us to include an Amazon link when we send the stuff to you in this thread for like oddball requests? (obviously the cheapest thing we can find that'll work)
*Thread Reply:* If it is something that we don't usually have and you want a specific version, yes. If you will take whatever kind the company finds (size/brand of grid paper does not matter), then let me know and I will send the info to Sean so he can have something approved by Tony
*Thread Reply:*
*Thread Reply:* If possible, can I get the above too or its subsitute?
*Thread Reply:* May I have:

I just posted the formula to convert a full state name to an abbreviation. This formula is row relative, meaning you can just copy and paste down.
This formula assumes your state full name is in column "A". Switch "A" to your column.

If anyone finished their tasks early, please go into the AFFF audit from 8/19 and remove all clients that are in the audit from 7/8. You can then begin working on this. Please start with the Initial PFS Data Import Template.
*Thread Reply:* @deleted-U04GZ79CPNG Good morning.....Do you know the case name for Chowchilla? There's about 2 dozen to choose from at this point and I can't tell new from old...:)
@here if you guys want to, you can use the 8.20 AFFF Audit and do the above ^ "remove all clients that are in the audit from 7/8. You can then begin working on this. Please start with the Initial PFS Data Import Template."
The 8.20.25 audit has the fixes for the parsing from the $ and I've added the additional columns needed in Address of Contaminated Water for 'Water Provider Address' and 'Add "Mental" if Mental Health' column to the Medical Providers Template.
@here also, as another announcement, I've updated the Medical Provider PFS Import Template to just add a column labeled "Mental Health" (shown in pic) for the 8.20.25 PFS. Can you guys just enter 'Yes' in the column if it's Mental Health going forward? You DON'T have to put anything for the Non-Mental Health ones.
@here I am exploring options for rescheduling the huddle
Lunch will be here in a few min
Lunch is here! Pizza and wings on the table. Please feel free to start eating
@here Huddle rescheduled for 11:30 in conf 1 - NO FOOD in there
@here FYI
@here Please make sure you let me know if you did not finish your dash rec assignments before you leave. Finishing them INCLUDES sending discrepancies to Zek
@here 685001 for AFFF PFS Flatirons needs an update from the agent, I am removing from the 8/20 audit.
@here Please work through all of the outstanding items from last week if you have not completed them, including the dash reconciliation.
Regarding deleting scheduled reports in LR, they have asked us to provide the name of any reports that need to be deleted to their dev team to delete for us. They expect they might have a fix on 9/10.
@here Quick announcement: I have a long-awaited appointment with my doctor tomorrow (hopefully we can figure out my headaches and other issues). The appointment is for 10:30 in the morning, so I will be in afterwards. I will have my computer with me and Slack available. I will otherwise be trying to get as much work done as I can before my appointment.
*Thread Reply:* Hope you get to the bottom of it as well. With age we only get worse, so best to figure everything now. 🙂
*Thread Reply:* I have really been trying to make better choices for my health recently, so hopefully I can get some answers and get on an even better path
@here I will be coming around today when I am done at the doctor to verify that your dash reconciliation months are complete and sent to Zek. If you have not finished, please work on those
@here Reminder about the Labor Day holiday.
@here Official info about NEST from HR:

Putting this message here since I know at least one more person has been getting these annoying email notifications from LR 😩
@here Olivia has started working the 8/20 AFFF PFS pull. I am going to assign out some templates for everyone to assist on today through the beginning of next week. If you finish your assigned template, please let me know! NOTE: Please remove all lead IDs that were in the 7/8 audit from this one so we don't do double work @deleted-U07SBM5MB32 is working on the Initial PFS Data Import Template @deleted-U072JS2NHRQ Please continue to work on the auth script for this @deleted-U072B7ZV4SH Please work on the Military Service Import Template @deleted-U08FJ290LUX Please work on the Address of Contaminated Water Import Template @deleted-U08GMHAPRK2 Please work on the Fire Service Import Template @deleted-U08E306T7SM Please work on the Water Exposure Information Import Template @deleted-U06CVB2MHRN Please work on the Medical Provider PFS Import Template
This will leave Direct Exposure Address History, Direct Exposure Product Information, Persons with Knowledge, and Prior Residence Import Templates left over
@deleted-U04GZ79CPNG, I will try to do this new task. I am currently working on the Reconciliation task still. I have 2 more months of that data to go through. Although they are going much, much quicker. I also have my 4th tab on the Exhibit B, C stuff. Not to mention finish testing on the Meadow Law automation expansion project we developed, just to mention a few things I am involved in. My plate is very, verry full. However, I will try to take on this new task. You just might have to tell me what the priority is and i can adjust as needed. Right now I know my priority as the dashboard reconciliations so they can be handed over to Zek (spelled wrong). But let me know if you need me to shift my priorities.
Here you guys. Again, these are notes I first took when going over the AFFF audit. I believe these still apply. Modify them as you see fit. They aren't super in depth but hopefully they help
