Prison Case Notes to Probation

Inbound service that responds to case note creation events, calls the Offender Case Notes Service and adds the relevant information to the Delius case history as a contact.

Probation Business Need

Prison case notes are displayed as contacts in the NDelius contact log and used by probation practitioners as part of the probation case history

Context Map

Interfaces

Message Formats

The service responds to ‘offender events’ messages via the Case Notes SQS Sub Queue which are raised by the Prison Offender Events service

Example messages are in the development source tree

Incoming messages are filtered on eventType by the SQS queue policy

Case Note Details

The service uses the case note id contained in the message and a known URL for the Offender Case Notes Service to request the specific case note details.

Person Matching

Person records are matched across NOMIS and Delius using the NOMS number. This relies on the NOMS number being set in Delius which happens as part of the processing within the Prison to Probation Update service

Event Triggers

Prison case notes are collected and transferred based on fine-grained data events raised when there are changes to the NOMIS database tables. As a result of this the case notes do not necessarily map to a single business activity. The events we respond to are roughly raised in the following circumstances:

Business Event	Message Class	Message Event Type / Filter
Person Released from Institution	Prison Offender Event	“PRISON-RELEASE”
Person Transferred	Prison Offender Event	“TRANSFER-FROMTOL”
General Observations	Prison Offender Event	“GEN-OSE”
Alerts Active	Prison Offender Event	“ALERT-ACTIVE”
Alerts Inactive	Prison Offender Event	“ALERT-INACTIVE”
All OMiC Events	Prison Offender Event	{ prefix = “OMIC” }
All OMiC OPD Events	Prison Offender Event	{ prefix = “OMIC_OPD” }
Keyworking Events	Prison Offender Event	{ prefix = “KA” }

HMPPS Technical Environment

This service takes on the responsibilities of the existing Case Notes to Probation service. It also supports the deprecation of the NDelius HTTP/JSON API interface for ingesting case notes and the Community API endpoint (PUT /secure/nomisCaseNotes/{nomisId}/{caseNotesId}) that calls this.
