12th Feb AMA: I'm Courtney Youngblutt, Xplan Design Consultant & efficiency expert, Ask Me Anything!
Note to anyone from Xplan who is following the issue Jackie mentions about the 3 digits for search criteria - this should have been resolved years ago. It was raised as an issue when the first version of FDS and consent process commenced, and we needed to be able to search on 120 and 150 days post the anniversary date. And it has been raised a number of times since and nothing has happened!
Hi susie.vincent,
I understand that this has been raised before and fully agree that it would be useful.
I checked in with the product team to see why we haven’t just gone ahead and just done this. They also get that this would be helpful, and updating it has not been ruled out, but unfortunately it would be a massive job behind the scenes and would have flow on impacts to lots of other areas.
It's not a quick fix and can't be considered in isolation, so needs to form part of a much larger piece of work.... not what you wanted to hear, I know. 😬
