LCM mention in the Lawyers Weekly (Australia) http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article155.html 2007-06-18 04:24:15 LCM and other software solutions for legal case management have been the topic of an article by Shaun Drummond in the Lawyers Weekly newspaper in Australia: "Controlling your practices", June 18, 2007). Customizing the "Case ID" http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article154.html 2007-04-05 17:14:34 Some offices need to generate a case ID automatically using a set of predetermined criteria. For example: it may be WP-420123 to show that the case is of type "WP", or "420123/2007" to show that it is a case from 2007. There is a way in LCM to create a custom function which will generate this case ID. Using the different numbering system (such as Indian) for currency http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article153.html 2007-04-05 16:46:58 LCM already had a way to format currency so that it is "1,000,000.00" in English, or "1 000 000,00" in French, but there was no way to support other numbering systems, such as the Indian numbering system, which would print the same number in the form "1,00,00,00.00". Mathieu Mathieu Legal Case Management (LCM) release: version 0.7.2b http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article151.html 2006-12-28 23:28:13 Minor bugfix release which fixes the "sum billed" format error (if the field is active), as well as the "case notes" being lost after edit. Mathieu Mathieu How to attach large documents to cases, clients or organisations http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article150.html 2006-12-28 15:58:06 The Legal Case Management software (LCM) may emit a panic or error message when uploading a large document (attach file) to a case, client or organisation. To fix the problem, you must modify the following PHP parameters. You may also need to modify an LCM configuration variable. Legal Case Management (LCM) release: version 0.7.2 http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article148.html 2006-11-15 20:20:27 More descriptive error message when export fails. The default case status is now 'open' (not 'draft'). It is now possible to create a new organisation directly from the 'new case' form. The term 'case alleged crime' changed to 'case problem'. The management of contacts was much improved to be more flexible on which fields are mandatory and which are recommended. New 'date of birth' field for clients, and many many bugs fixed. This release also includes a new German and Italian translation, and the French translation was updated. Mathieu Mathieu Problems while importing or exporting the database http://www.lcm.ngo-bg.org/article147.html 2006-11-14 15:24:50 The Legal Case Management software (LCM) may emit a panic or error message when trying to do an import or export of the database. To fix the problem, you must grant the 'File_priv' to the MySQL user which is used by LCM. This is necessary, otherwise the MySQL daemon cannot write to the disk.
