DigEplan configuration

To use the DigEplan integration in Rhythm for Civics, you must first enable it in the Infor Public Sector site. After the integration is enabled in Infor Public Sector, you can configure it for service providers and customers in the portal.

Configuration in Infor Public Sector

To configure the DigEplan integration in Infor Public Sector, use the DigEplan node under the General > Electronic Plans node in the CDR configuration.

  • Settings for service providers are specified on the Profile - Reviewer node under the DigEplan node.
  • Settings for customers are specified on the Profile - Customer node under the DigEplan node.

You must then use the Attachment Caching node under the DigEplan node to specify which document types will be cached for use in DigEplan.

For details see "Configuring the DigEplan integration" in the CDR administration guides, such as the Infor Public Sector Building Permits Administration Guide.

Each of the configured document types must be configured for the correct roles in Rhythm for Civics using the Portal Configuration grid in Document Type Setup.

You must also set up access control for your EDM providers and document types. The user that you use to connect to Infor Public Sector (specified on the Portal User node of the Portal configuration) must be granted access to the providers and that you want to use.

Finally, to show the Electronic Plans button in the My Projects Card View widget, use the CDR system setup form for each module, such as Building Permits System Setup. In the Choose Fields to Show grid on the Portal Setups tab, select the My Projects check boxes for the Electronic Plans field.

Application type configuration

Availability of the DigEplan integration can be configured separately for building, planning, project, and use application types in Infor Public Sector. You can indicate whether users can include electronic plans when submitting new applications in the portal, and you can select which tabs are shown for electronic plans.

To configure DigEplan submissions for an application type, open the Application Type dialog box and select the Portal Setup tab. If the DigEplan integration is configured, the DigEplan Customer Comments and DigEplan Customer Submittal check boxes are shown.

The DigEplan Customer Submittal check box controls whether the Electronic Plans step is shown in the Add Instrument widget when a customer submits an application of this type. Electronic plans are not shown in the Add Instrument widget if this check box is not selected.

In the My Projects Card View and Instrument Detail widgets, the DigEplan Customer Submittal check box controls whether the Submission Package tab is shown for electronic plans.

The DigEplan Customer Comments check box controls whether the Comments tab is shown for electronic plan in the My Projects Card View and Instrument Detail widgets. The Comments tab is not shown when adding electronic plans in the Add Instrument widget.
