For more information outlining each Permission Set, see this article.
A few of the standard Salesforce pick-lists (drop-downs) need to be extended with additional values required to support Maica.
Update the Quantity Unit of Measure
picklist with the following values:
Hourly
H
Daily
D
Weekly
WK
Monthly
MON
Yearly
YR
Each
E
The Quantity Unit Of Measure
list should look like this after being updated.
Note: you may have some of your own, specific values in here and that is okay too.
You can use the list below to copy the exact values that need to be entered. To add these to Salesforce, click New and paste the values from below. You will need to manually update the API Name for each value after these have been saved and the API Name needs to be upper case, i.e. MON
for Monthly.
Maica comes with a number of Page Layouts for standard Salesforce objects. If you prefer to use the Maica Page Layouts - these need to be assigned to the relevant Profiles/Record Types in your organisation.
The following standard objects can be assigned Maica Page Layouts:
Contact
Case
Opportunity
Product
As Maica introduces the Service Agreement
Record Type on the Opportunity
object, please ensure that you have updated the Page Layout Assignment for this Record Type. The image below illustrates how to do this:
If you would prefer to use your own Page Layouts for these objects, namely Contact
and Opportunity
, you need to add the Maica Quick Actions to the layouts to ensure these options are displayed to your users. Please see below.
It is important to note that Maica does not include a specific Page Layout for the Account
object. For Plan Managers, we would recommend adding the following items to your Account layout(s):
Add the Invoice
related list to ensure that you can see a list of all Invoices associated with a specific Provider.
You can add the Invoice
related list to the Page Layout per the image below:
The table below lists the fields that Plan Managers will want to add to the Account
Page Layout to support Maica processes.
Australian Business Number (ABN)
The Australian Business Number of the Provider.
ABN Exemption
Used to indicate if the Provider is exempt from quoting an ABN under ATO rules. If selected, a value of EXCLS
will be populated in the Bulk Payment Request File
.
Bank Account Name
The Bank Account Name that is used for processing a payment to the Provider.
Bank Account Number
The Bank Account Number that is used for processing a payment to the Provider. Please ensure the Maica Bank Account Number
field is populated and not the standard Salesforce Account Number
field. See the image below.
BSB
The Bank BSB that is used for processing a payment to the Provider.
Provider Email
The email address used when sending Invoices to a Provider.
To manage the ABN of your Providers / Organisations, ensure that you use the Australian Business Number (ABN)
field and not the (DEPRECATED) ABN
field
If you have not already done so, you need to enable Path Settings to ensure these can be displayed on the relevant Lightning Pages, such as Opportunity
, Plan
, Service Booking
etc.
Please see the image below illustrating how to do this:
In Setup, use the Quick Find box to find Path Settings
Click Enable
In order to send Participant Funding Statements and Invoices via Email from Maica, the Salesforce Lightning Email Action needs to be added to the Page Layout for the Contact
and Invoice
objects.
If you are using the Maica Page Layouts for these objects, then we have done this for you . If you wish to use your own Page Layout, say for Contact
, then please ensure that the Lightning Email Action has been added.
Please see the image below illustrating how to do this:
Maica contains a Matching & Duplicate Rule combination to assist in the management of your Providers and Organisations within the standard Account
object.
Matching Rule Name: Maica ABN Match
Matching Rule Criteria: The Matching Rule Criteria looks for an EXACT match of the data entered into the Maica Australian Business Number (ABN)
field on the Account
object
Duplicate Rule Name: Maica ABN Duplicate Rule
Duplicate Rule Conditions: Account
: Australian Business Number (ABN)
NOT EQUAL TO null
The Duplicate Rule has been configured with the following properties:
Action on Create
Allow. This means that the Duplicate Rule will not prevent you from creating a new Account
record even if there are other Account
records with the same ABN
.
Action on Edit
Allow. This means that the Duplicate Rule will not prevent you from updating an Account
record even if there are other Account
records with the same ABN
.
Operation on Create
✔️ Alert and ✔️Report
This means that users will be alerted when attempting to create a new Account
with the same ABN
as an existing Account
record(s).
A Duplicate Record Set
record will also be created, meaning the new Account and each of its duplicates is listed as duplicate record items in the duplicate record set. These records can then be managed via Salesforce Duplicate management options.
Operation on Edit
✔️Alert
This means that users will be alerted when attempting to edit a new Account with the same ABN as an existing Account record(s).
Once you have reviewed the Duplicate Rule and ensured it is suitable, it will need to be Activated. You can do this from Setup --> Duplicate Rule and clicking the Activate button as per the image below.
Any Report Charts displayed on an object that contains a filter need to be quickly reconfigured following the installation. There is some Salesforce behaviour that prevents the filter from being added as part of the managed package install.
In order to do that, navigate to each of the objects listed below and click the Edit Page button, as shown in the image below.
With the Lightning Page in Edit mode, select the Report Chart and click the Filter By option to display the list of available filter options. The Maica charts will contain a single option for you to select.
Once you have selected the filter, Save and Activate the Lightning Page to ensure it has been applied correctly.
The following objects in Maica contain Report Charts that need to be configured:
ABA Export
Contact
Plan
Service Booking
Service Agreement
Opportunity
Support Items (Products) and Prices are a critical component and touch almost all parts of Maica, so creating (and maintaining) these records is critical.
Maica has an automated import utility to take the headache out of this task for you, so no more tweaking and comparing a new NDIS Support Catalogue with your own complex VLOOKUPS just to check what Products are new and what has changed from one Price Guide to the next.
Use the Data Import tool to create the following records following your Maica install:
Support Items (Products)
Plan Management - Financial Administration
(14_034_0127_8_3)
Price Books
NDIS Support Catalogue 2023/24
Price Book Entries
The Price Book Entry
links a Product
to a particular Price Book
for the price at that particular time
For example: Plan Management - Financial Administration
(14_034_0127_8_3) is added to the NDIS Support Catalogue 2023/24
for $104.45
For more information on using Maica to load the NDIS Support Catalogue, see the following article.
Pricing is a critical component of the NDIS. We recommend learning more about the NDIS Pricing Arrangements here.
The final step before you start Empowering Your Participants with Maica is to synchronise data in the NDIS Portal with Salesforce. This ensures that all the relevant records are available and can be leveraged by Maica.
All synchronisation activities are dependent on your level of access in the NDIS Portal. Maica can only retrieve data that you have the required permissions and/or consent to access. This is particularly relevant for Plan Budget
data.
The following data needs to be synchronised (in the following order):
Plan
(and Plan Budget
and Plan Goal
)
maica__Plan__c
maica__Plan_Budget__c
maica__Plan_Goal__c
Service Booking
(and Booking Item
)
maica__Service_Booking__c
maica__Booking_Item__c
This step is available on the Maica Settings Tab and described in more detail in the NDIS Synchronisation article.
