Agency Service Type Setup
Updated over a week ago

To setup Agency Service Types in Penelope you will need to be logged in with a System Administrator account.

You can configure the Agency Service Type drop-downs if you want to use additional data collection fields at the Case Service, Informal Service and in some cases Anonymous Service levels.

There are four user defined drop-down fields available for you to optionally configure.

Fields 1-3 appear for Case and Informal Services. Field 4 appears for Case, Informal Service and Anonymous Service.
