The recording from our Apricot Optimization Lab is now available, and I wanted to pull out a few things worth keeping in mind as you explore these features in your own setup!

 

A few things to remember to help optimize your system:

  • Post-implementation is a good time to revisit your forms — converting free-text fields to dropdowns where it makes sense will pay off in your reports later

  • Advanced Access and Caseloads both require Role-Based Permissions to be enabled first

  • Smart Lists create one source of truth for dropdown values across your whole database — if your values aren't consistent, your reports won't be either

  • The standardized Referrals feature is ready to use out of the box — no configuration needed, and reporting tends to be more consistent than a custom Tier 2 form

  • Connect lets participants update their own information through a mobile-friendly portal — admins control exactly what they can see and edit
