New Review Type for EHCP Review Involvements for Phase Transfers
When users complete an EHCP Assessment Involvement or issue the final EHC plan on the Assessment Involvement, they are prompted to create an EHCP Review Involvement.
If they choose to do so, they can select the Review Type to be Phase Transfer. This enables the Phase Transfer Review Date field on the Create Review dialog (or Create Next Review when from an EHCP Review Involvement).

A Review Type of Phase Transfer is created via Focus | Services | EHCP Administration | EHCP Review Type Setup | EHCP Review Enquiry.
