November 2024 monthly summary for hmcts/prl-wa-task-configuration focusing on delivering value-driven improvements in case routing and reliability. Key feature delivered: DMN-based routing for reopened cases (FL401 and C100) enabling gatekeeper review and faster triage. This was achieved by introducing new DMN decision table rules and integrating them with the existing routing pipeline. A minor but important bug fix addressed closing-case logic to support the reopening flow, as reflected in accompanying changes.

October 2024 monthly summary for PRL development. Focused on stabilizing and delivering CAFCASS integration improvements in hmcts/prl-cos-api and refining DMN routing for reopenClosedCases in hmcts/prl-wa-task-configuration. Key deliverables include CAFCASS integration enhancements (search/refinement, date-range validation, improved handling of cancelled hearings, service authorization adjustments), CaseDataService refactor, and test updates for document processing plus environment/config stabilization (Helm values, logging, test scaffolding). CAFCASS date range validation bug fix now returns BAD_REQUEST when the time window exceeds 15 minutes, with updated tests. DMN routing fix ensures CASE_ISSUED events with FL401 and C100 are routed to the correct gatekeeper task, preventing misrouting of reopened cases. Overall impact: increased data integrity and reliability of CAFCASS workflows, reduced deployment risk due to environment stabilization, and stronger test coverage. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Helm/Kubernetes deployment practices, logging improvements, test scaffolding, CaseDataService refactor, CAFCASS integration, DMN routing logic, and service authorization adjustments.
