# OpenCase
A simple, case-management-focused CRM for small altruistic organisations.
## Current Status
**24 July 2018** A demo site, with basic functionality is available at demo.opencase.org.uk. If you are interested, raise an issue and I will get the login to you somehow.
A simple case-management system for small altruistic organisations.
## The Plan
OpenCase will be available as:
* A Drupal module, on drupal.org
* A Drupal install profile / distribution
* A hosted service
### Features
#### Existing
* Completely configurable person types, case types and activity types
* Search
* Basic Reporting
* Basic user roles (caseworker, volunteer co-ordinator, site admin etc) with access control
#### Coming soon
* Better reporting (currently only reports on defaults fields and not user-added ones)
* Allocation of tasks, overview of tasks and their stage of completion
* Appointments and notifications
## Current Status
**11 Nov 2018**
### User Base
OpenCase is being used by a couple of organisations, early adopters on the hosted platform.
### Availability as Free Software
If you want to install OpenCase for yourself, please get in touch via Issues. It is changing rapidly and the install process is currently undocumented but I am more than happy to guide you through.
### Try it out
A demo site, with basic functionality is available at demo.opencase.org.uk. If you are interested, raise an issue and I will get the login to you somehow.
## Find out more
* More details, including user stories for future development, can be found in the [OpenCase Gitbook](https://hoegrammer.gitbooks.io/zen-crm/content/)
* Raise an issue to contact the developer.
## Differences between current version (v0.2.6, July 2018) and previous version ##
**Access control**: Previously everyone could see all cases. Now, users can see cases that they are involved in. By creating case you automatically become involve in it (although you can later be removed or remove yourself). Caseworkers can see all clients and volunteer co-ordinators can see all volunteers. Site admins and overseers can see everything.
**Editing types**: As a site admin you can now add, remove and configure types of actor, types of case and types of activity and you can configure fields on these and add your own fields.s
**Relations between types**: For each type of case, you can specify what types of actors (people) can be involved in it, e.g. for a volunteer recruitment case it would be volunteers and/or staff; for a legal advice case maybe clients, volunteers and solicitors. You can also specify what activities belong on what kinds of cases.
