From Ideagen Healthcare Guardian Designer

Within an Ideagen Healthcare Guardian installation, there can be a number of models. These are displayed in the model dropdown list. There can be different configuration settings set up in different Ideagen Healthcare Guardian models.

The model initially displayed will be the model you were in before you opened the Ideagen Healthcare Guardian Administrator Application.

Active Filter

This defines the default active date filter setting for the database. This setting is used when users do not define a set of their own.

Audit Settings

Ability to turn off / on audit-logged activity. By default, audit activity is enabled.

Brand Colours

Allows the brand colour palate can be updated with up to 7 different colours/colour tones. This can assist easy application of consistent customer branding for portals and visualisations created in Ideagen Healthcare Guardian Designer. Simply select a colour to update in the quick edit panel. An alternative colour from other existing palettes can be used or set a specific tone, HEX or RBG code through the advanced settings.

Data Series Label

Ideagen Healthcare Guardian can display calculated and manually entered actual values and up to nine plan lines (with percentage and absolute variance) for each Object Measure pair. Every Object measure in the Model database will include all of the configured Actual and Plan series. To update or add the data series labels, simply update these in the quick edit panel.

Default End Date

The default end date defines the date to which plan values will be aggregated. For objects that continue (i.e. do not have an end date), it also defines the date to which planning slots for measures and competencies will be displayed. The default end date must be managed using Ideagen Healthcare Guardian Administrator because it defines the date up to which one can enter plans for objects without a defined end date; it will need to be reset each year to be ready for the next set of plans to be entered. It is good practice to set a default end date at least 24 months ahead.

Default Start Date

The default start date defines the default start date for the model.

Dynamic Aggregation

These settings control the way in which Dynamic Aggregation works. Dynamic aggregation is a process by which data value changes are automatically aggregated from the point of entry to other objective measures that are affected by the change.

Financial Start Date

The financial year start defines the day/month start date for the organisation’s fiscal year. This is the date from which measure values will be accumulated in ‘To Date’ views of the data. Ideagen Healthcare Guardian manages the allocation of financial year start dates for years other than the current financial year dynamically: if you are viewing data from an earlier year or creating plans for a future period, the financial year start date will automatically be set to the correct date for that year (e.g. 1 April 2020 when the view date is set to January 2021, or 1 April 2021 when the view date is set to August 2021).

Priority Setting

These define the priority settings that can be associated with Objects and Tasks that are used in the Model database. To update or add the priority settings, Simply update these in the quick edit panel.

Risk Matrix Settings

These settings control the way in which the Risk Management add-in works. The settings are unavailable in model databases that do not use the Risk Management add-in.

Top Employee

Not the highest performing employee, but the name at the top of the organisational reporting hierarchy! This is usually the Chief Executive or equivalent.

Top Objective

The Top Objective in the model defines the top of the object hierarchy. However, it is often more appropriate to make it a generic ‘Achieve organisational goals’ object that can be the parent of all other organisational objects.
