hmtoggle_plus1Disconnect case users to perform administrative tasks

hmtoggle_plus1Set and manage index locations for SQL cases

CaseMap Server v1.7 now supports setting up and managing case indexes for CaseMap v10 cases. Setting an index location tells CaseMap where the case index is stored for each SQL case. A default index location can also be set up for use when registering new SQL cases.

hmtoggle_plus1Publish CaseMap case data on a central SharePoint location

CaseMap Server v1.6 now provides the ability to set up a CaseMap SharePoint Web Parts that allows for the display of CaseMap case data from active SQL cases. With the CaseMap SharePoint Web Parts, data is published to a central SharePoint location so staff can access and view case data without having to open a CaseMap case. Administrators can now publish case data without having to manually retrieve it from a case file.

For more information, see the About CaseMap SharePoint Web Parts topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Create SQL cases for TextMap

TextMap v6.0 users now have the ability to create SQL case files using the CaseMap Server and CaseMap Admin Console. A TextMap SQL Import Utility helps convert existing local case files from previous TextMap versions to the new Microsoft® SQL Server® format.

For more information, see the About CaseMap Server topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Add new users while mapping users in SQL cases

CaseMap users can now create new SQL cases from a CaseMap SQL case template in the CaseMap Admin Console. Case users and issues from the template will be copied into the new SQL case file, in addition to user's spreadsheet views, saved searches, and case/form preferences.

For more information, see the Configuring SQL Server for CaseMap templates and Creating SQL cases from CaseMap templates topics.

hmtoggle_plus1Manage TextMap SQL case Ignore Words

The CaseMap Server Properties dialog box now has an Ignore Words tab so TextMap users can manage the Ignore Words for SQL cases.

For more information, see the Accessing CaseMap Server properties.

hmtoggle_plus1Review updates to the New SQL Case dialog box

The New SQL Case dialog box now accommodates creating CaseMap or TextMap SQL cases. Changes were made to the dialog box to reflect enhancements related to the client application you are using. If a user is creating new CaseMap SQL cases, the dialog box now includes a Template Name field for selecting either the default template or a custom case template. If a user is creating a TextMap SQL Case, the dialog box now includes a Folder field for setting the path to import exhibit files.

Additionally general improvements were made to the New SQL Case dialog box. If there is only one SQL Server registered, the server automatically populates the SQL Server field. If there is more than one registered SQL Server, the last server used automatically populates the SQL Server field. When typing in the case name, the Database Name field automatically populates with the case name and removes any invalid name characters or spaces. The Database Name entry can be edited.

For more information, see the Managing SQL cases topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Open SQL cases from the command line

The CaseMap Server now allows users to open CaseMap and TextMap SQL cases via command line support. Users must first have case portal web pages set up where they can post hyperlinks to the SQL cases, in addition to any local cases or exported case data that they want available such as a case issue list or cast of characters.

Case users can create shortcuts on their desktops or save hyperlinks as Favorites in their Internet browser to open case file assigned to them. The CaseMap and TextMap applications will launch from the web portal page. Options are provided for whether the client application splash screen displays or whether a user logon is required before the case can be opened.

For more information, see the Opening SQL cases from the command line topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Automate the client connection with CaseMap Server

Using command line parameters, the logon connection of the CaseMap and TextMap client applications can be automated to the default CaseMap Server using Windows authentication.

The command line parameter can be configured to automate the CaseMap Server logon dialog box. This set up can be used in conjunction with the ability to open a SQL case in CaseMap or TextMap using command line parameters.

For more information, see the Automating the client connection with the CaseMap Server topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Bulk import users from Active Directory groups

The CaseMap Admin Console now allows administrators the ability to bulk import CaseMap Server users from an Active Directory group. Using the Import Users Wizard, administrators can search for individuals by domain group or run common queries to locate a specific group. Once users are verified in Active Directory, the wizard allows the option of assigning them to roles already created in the CaseMap Admin Console. Users imported into the CaseMap Admin Console will display on the Users pane. Each user's name, type, user name, and email is automatically imported during this process.

For more information, see the Creating users topic.

hmtoggle_plus1Upgrade previous admin databases to CaseMap Server v1.5

The CaseMap Server installation program now upgrades administrator databases from the CaseMap v9.0 / CaseMap Server v1.0 release to the current schema for the TextMap 6.0 / CaseMap Server v1.5 release. This allows administrators who have already installed the CaseMap Server to upgrade their installation to support TextMap SQL cases.
