You can easily record when your work is related directly to specific outcomes with Outcome tracking. Outcomes can be assigned to client and whānau session records to track work towards predefined outcomes. You can also track the reasons for adding and removing the outcomes that you are working toward with clients and whānau.

Please note: Outcome tracking is only available for specific organisations while we refine this feature. If you would like to discuss this, please get in touch.

Creating and editing outcomes

Outcomes are set in Administration according to your organisation’s needs.

To create or edit outcomes:

  1. Navigate to Administration, using the Switcher

  2. Select Organisation, then Outcome tracking from the menu

  3. Select the Outcome you wish to edit or click Create outcome to track

  4. Slide the toggle to indicate whether the outcome is enabled

  5. Add a name and description for your outcome then click Save outcome

You can edit the name or description of your outcome at any time. You can also enable or disable this outcome for your organisation as required.

Outcome reasons

When adding or removing Outcomes, a user can select a reason for this change. These reasons feed in to reporting and can be customised within Administration to reflect your organisation.

To edit existing reasons or create a new reason:

1. Navigate to Administration, using the Switcher

2. Select Organisation, then Outcome reasons from the menu
