This is intentional.

The decision making process that HIFIS now uses is resulting in the wrong bed/room/ location being chosen which is not accurate and is impacting our statistics and the shelters understanding of where specific clients have been over the course of weeks/months.

Support Desk as informed us that:

"Removing the bed name from the historical stays was a strategic move on the developers side. The Change was made because it was causing other issues for users being unable to create historical stays if a client was already booked in, causing them to have to be booked out in order to create a historical stay.

HIFIS will choose a bed based on the following criteria:

1. Does the SP have active beds over the stay's entire date range?

• If no, return error stating "no beds exist"

2. If beds exist for the whole historical stay period

• Does Client have other stays? Pick the bed they used closest to these dates, if available

3. If no recent stays or recent bed is unavailable, HIFIS will choose a bed based on the following criteria:

• Get list of available beds for the date range chosen

• If no beds were available over date range, get list of all beds that existed for date range, even if already booked

• Force double booking.
