TrackVeteranTask_Organization Description #

Task stats for DR, for ES, for H dockets.

Code comments extracted from Ruby file:

  • Task created for appellant representatives to track appeals that have been received by the Board.

  • After the appeal is established, if the Veteran has a representative, a Track Veteran Task is automatically created and assigned to that representative so they can see their appeals. This could be an: IHP-writing VSO, field VSO, private attorney, or agent.

    • If the Veteran has an IHP-writing VSO as their representative, an InformalHearingPresentationTask is also automatically created and assigned.
  • Private attorneys, agents, and field VSOs cannot create, assign, or be assigned any tasks (other than the TrackVeteranTask, which does not require action).

  • Assigning this task to the representative results in the associated case appearing in their view in Caseflow.

  • Created either when:

    • a RootTask is created for an appeal represented by a VSO
    • the power of attorney changes on an appeal
  • See Appeal#create_tasks_on_intake_success! and InitialTasksFactory.create_root_and_sub_tasks!.
