A build is scheduled for this weekend.  Below is a summary of what is included in the release.

 

Upcoming changes for Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer (IE) will no longer be supported effective June 15, 2022. KEES and Perceptive Content (formerly ImageNow) are being updated to support the use of Edge, Chrome, and Firefox browsers on June 4, 2022. As of June 6, 2022, you should begin using one of these other browsers for KEES and Perceptive Content.

 

If you choose to continue using IE after 6/04/22, there is a workaround for Perceptive Content that will need to be used for pulling the case information into Perceptive. Perceptive will be unable to locate the Case Name and Case Number unless the information is showing on the screen when attempting to scan to Perceptive or use IN Printer. Before starting the scan, you will need to make sure you scroll all the way to the top of the Case Summary page so that the Case Name and Case Number are visible on the screen.

 

If not, and you scroll down on the Case Summary page so that you can no longer see the Case Name and Case Number that display up in the blue Case Header, you will get an error saying that Perceptive Content cannot find the KEES Case Summary page. If you get this error, click ok, and then scroll back up to the top so that the Case Name and Case Number are visible on the screen and try again.

 

Your IT staff will be communicating the browser changes and pushing out a new default browser in support of IE going unsupported.

 

If you have issues with KEES or Perceptive Content, please put in a ServiceNow ticket with the KEES Help Desk.  For any other systems and browser support, please reach out to your agency IT department with an EBIT ticket.

 

Updates to Forms and NOAs

In preparation for Internet Explorer being decommissioned on June 15th 2022, our Forms and NOAs will be migrated to render in the EDGE web browser this weekend. As a result of this upgrade, staff may notice small differences in how Forms and NOAs look or are formatted while being generated. These differences should not be noticeable after the form or NOA is printed locally or centrally and sent to the consumer. Differences staff may notice when the form is generated but not yet sent include:

 

 

Perceptive Experience Timeout

The Experience web version of Perceptive Content will be updated to comply with CMS guidelines of a 15 minute timeout session. On June 4, 2022, Experience will begin using a 15 minute timeout. For any unactionable functions that last for 15 minutes, the system will automatically log the user off. This time does not include scrolling or clicking on the page. It must be an actionable function to keep the system from timing out.
