Placement Requests - Conditions and Dismiss Features for Placing and Receiving Agencies
Placing & Receiving Agency Related Guide (PARG RARG){{@101}}
Summary:
Using Conditions and Dismiss features together: Receiving and Placing Coordinators (Destination Coordinators may also add conditions).
Purpose of a Condition:
The Receiving Agency (RC or DC) may add conditions to a placement request for a number of reasons: the placing coordinator needs to respond and indicate the conditions can be met, or if not, the PC could cancel the request:
The Receiving Coordinator may add conditions to pre-screen requests before redirecting them to a Destination Coordinator, based on the destination profile. Example: change group size may be selected if the request is for a group of 8 students and the destination profile capacity specifies the maximum size is 6. The RC could withhold (not redirect) and dismiss requests (from the welcome screen) pending the school's response to the condition. The request can be redirected to the destination when it meets the destination profile specifications for consideration.
The Destination Coordinator may also add a condition after receiving the request from the RC, such as: Dates of placement need to be changed.
A condition may also be added: - to provide further instruction such as accepted, but pending availability of staff (conditional accept)
to provide direction to students/instructors
contact facility prior to start. This may be used when a placement is going to a locked down area, such as the operating room, in order for the instructor/student to know who to contact to gain admittance when they arrive.
Process Overview:
The Receiving Coordinator adds a condition to a placement request. 
(this action suspends all automated messages to the DC regarding this PR; it does not affect the e-mail contact icon  ).
The RC may dismiss the placement request from the welcome screen (so it is not shown in the preview screen as PENDING – but is still available if filtered to the site, service, and destination inbox).   Dismissing the request from the welcome screen helps ensure the Receiving Coordinator does not redirect the request to the destination until the condition has been met and removed.
The school Placing Coordinator receives an alert/link on the welcome screen under Changes/Alerts from Other Agencies indicating a condition has been added to a placement request: 1 new conditions. The placing coordinator can click the link: 1 new conditions to view the Placement Request and the condition added to it. 
If the school can meet the condition, the Placing Coordinator can update the placement request to meet the condition (Change group size, add a resume, etc).
The PC should then remove the condition in order to alert the Receiving Coordinator that the Placement Request has been updated.
The RC receives an alert on the welcome screen under Changes/Alerts from Other Agencies, indicating: 1 Conditions Removed.
The RC can click that link to view the placement request.
If the condition has been met, the RC can now Redirect the placement request to the destination.
