You can access your work either through a dashboard or through menu options.

Dashboard

When you log in to DECM, the first screen displayed is your dashboard. Your dashboard has three tables.

Not all tables may have items listed in them.

  • Upcoming and Overdue Development Discussions: This table lists scheduled weekly and quarterly development discussions in order by date. Double-click the white space to the immediate left of the appointment start time to view or edit appointment details.
  • Job Coach Trainers by Manager: This table lists your job coach trainers and their managers. Click a name to view information about that staff member.
  • YTD Placements: This table lists associates who have been placed during the year (year-to-date).

Tables display a set number of items. When there are more items than can be displayed at once, the numbers below the table on the left will indicate the total number of items in the list. The page number on the right will indicate what page is displayed.

    • To go to the next page of items, click the right arrow.
    • To return to the previous page of items, click the left arrow.
    • To jump back to the first page, click the left arrow on the far left.

Menu

You can find or access the following using the drop-down menu at the top of the screen:

  • Dashboards: This opens your dashboard.
  • Cases: This opens a screen listing cases.
  • Forms and Documents: This opens a list of forms and documents you can print.
  • Contacts: This opens a screen listing contacts.
  • Referrals: This opens a screen listing referrals.

Microsoft Logo: Do not use the logo to the left of DECM or the drop-down list to the right. These link to other Microsoft 365 applications.

Recently Viewed: In the top right corner, click the recently viewed items icon to see a list of recent views and recent records. Click on one of these recent views or records to quickly return to that screen.

The following table explains what the menu icons mean:
