A system admin page exists within Caseflow. This page can be accessed by System Admin Users only. The purpose of this page is initially created so that System Admin users can generate an extract which contains information on veteran updates that will be sent to MPI.

Navigating to System Admin UI

Simply go to /admin OR when in /test/users, click on the Miscellaneous tab and then click Admin

Process for generating the extract

The system admin page will contain a button labeled Extract Veterans for MPI. Once this button is clicked:

  1. A System Admin Event is created
  2. A SQL command will be run to gather data for the extract.
    • Note: The most recent System Admin Event that was completed will be compared to the STADTIME field in the CORRES table so that only veterans added since are included in the extract.
  3. Two scenarios can happen here:
    • If the Extract SQL is successful:
      • completed_at will be set to the timestamp of when the SQL successfully ran
      • info will be set to the number of veterans that were found from the SQL statement
    • If an error occurs during the Extract SQL:
      • errored_at will be set to the timestamp of when error occurred.
  4. Once the System Admin Event is updated:
    • If number of veterans within info is not 0, then return data for CSV.
    • If number of veterans within info is 0, return a message stating no new veterans.
