Dynamic Status Sharing
Dynamic Status Sharing (DSS
Dynamic Status Sharing. Allows you to share resources and status types to other regions.) lets you share resources and status types Custom fields that track information about resources. This is region-specific and are unique fields. to other regions. To do so, you must request a collaboration between an owner region and a target region. The owner region controls the settings for the collaboration Defines how resources and status types are shared from an owner region to a target region., shared resources, and shared status types. If you want to share resources and status types from one owner region to multiple target regions, you can request multiple collaborations.
-
In the target regions, people with the appropriate permissions can assign users and status types to shared resources, and they can add shared status types to roles
Assigned to determine which features and functions are available to users., resources, resource types, and resource views. These changes are not synced between the owner region and the target regions. For example, if you assign a new status type to a shared resource in the owner region, this change is not reflected in the target regions.
-
In the owner region, people with the appropriate permissions can update the settings for shared resources and status types listed in Edit a Resource and Edit a Status Type. When you update these settings in the owner region, the changes are automatically synced to the target regions. People in the target regions cannot update these settings for shared resources or status types.
When you share a resource, you can also request to migrate functional "ownership" of the shared resource from the owner region to the target region. This allows people in the target region to edit the resource.
View-Only and Updatable Settings
You can set resources and status types as view-only or updatable in the target region.
If you share a resource and its status types as view-only, people with the appropriate permissions in the target region can view updates from the owner region to those resource statuses. However, people in the target region cannot update those resource statuses themselves.
If you share a resource and its status types as updatable, people in both regions can update those resource statuses, and the updates in one region are automatically reflected in the other.
When you share a resource, you can choose not to share specific status types, and you can set some status types as view-only and others as updatable. This helps you precisely control which information can be viewed or updated in the target region. Any time you share a resource, you should consider which status types should be updatable, view-only, or not shared.
Sharing and Consolidating Status Types
In addition to sharing status types associated with shared resources, you can share any other status types that are relevant to multiple regions. For example, if resources in several of your regions need to collect the number of available ICU beds, you could create an ICU Bed Availability status type in the owner region and share it to each other target region. If you need to edit this status type in the future, you can edit it in the owner region and your changes will automatically sync to each target region.
You may already have status types in multiple regions that track the same type of data. For example, one region might have an ICU Bed Availability status type, and another region might have a Beds Available In ICU status type. You can request to consolidate these status types, converting each of these status types into one shared status type. When you consolidate status types, one region becomes the owner region that controls the settings for the shared status type.
