      Release Notes - November 2020

      LSA Status

      Communities should now be receiving flag error files for their LSA submission. 

      • Bitfocus is actively working with HUD TA to resolve open "Flags - HMIS Vendor"
        • Please notify Bitfocus, via the Help Desk, if you find a Vendor Flag that is not referenced on the "crowdsourced" spreadsheet linked below
      • Flag 26, Invalid Geocodes, is listed under "Flags - HMIS Vendor" but should be corrected by the customer
        • Likely, these are Geocodes that are missing a leading zero
      • Customers should work to resolve "Flags - CoC" using the information included in the flag file
        • In the event the flag is unable to be resolved, then a Help Center ticket can be created with Bitfocus

      A "crowdsourced" spreadsheet is available for sharing ideas on resolving flags as well as learning latest status on Flags that need to be resolved by HUD or Bitfocus. The file is available here.
