Nexus makes it possible to group users in communities so they can share information and perform actions in the name of their community(ies), such as send cases to request advice and reply to requests. A community is an individual entity that groups users who log into Nexus using their own user account, thus making it possible to trace actions performed by each user.
To access community management, click your name in the top right corner of the screen, then click on Administration, and Communities.
Create a community
Initialize a community
Click on Create a community, you can then define a Name for it and associate member users.
You can complete other information.
Define visibility for cases
You can define the community’s level of visibility so that it is chosen as the recipient of a case. If the community is not visible, it is not possible to send it cases.
Si vous publiez la communauté dans l’annuaire local, la communauté pourra être destinatrice des télédossiers émis par des utilisateurs de ce même Nexus.
Si vous publiez la communauté dans l’annuaire public, la communauté pourra être destinatrice des télédossiers émis par des utilisateurs de Nexus distant.
Add case templates
In the Case templates section add the case template(s) that address the community’s needs.
Configure other parameters
If needed, edit the default AE Title, instead of the suggested default, to refer to the community.
If needed, in the QA/QC templates section, add the reconciliation template(s) that specify the rights to edit DICOM attributes when a member of the community sends studies to a local server or to the PACS
In the DICOM applications section, add the DICOM applications from which the community members will be allowed to add studies to Nexus or to which they will be allowed to send studies from Nexus.
In the Notifications for cases section, specify if you want Nexus to send an email notification to all the members of the community and/or to other persons for each case sent or received in its name. Then, the members will not have to log into Nexus to check if cases created in the name of the community were sent successfully or if the community has received new cases.
In the Study routing section you can specify to which local server(s) studies contained in cases should be automatically routed. Also, specify for each server if routing applies to cases sent and/or received by the community.
Disable/Enable a community
Instead of removing a community, you can disable it. Then, if you need to use the community again later you will only need to enable again it instead of recreating it from scratch.
Remove a community
The removal of a community will have the effect that all cases of which the community was the recipient or author will no longer be visible to members of the community.
