• The download is weekly to check any new record and the Data and Programme Team are both informed of new records after download

• Download from Oriel and upload into TIS are not weekly. They constantly check Oriel for new starter and upload them into TIS until post is full. It depends on availability of new record(s).

• There is no Weekly extract from Oriel to Upload into TIS in this region but one big upload. There might be situations where some programmes’ recruitment might still be available after deadline, then another report is pulled after the deadline of such extra recruitment.

Pain Point

• Not all of the data are pulled from Oriel because they are missing in Oriel

• Fields not matching with TIS fields

• Programme and Curriculum details depends on Team experience and TIS as it’s not clearly stated in Oriel.

Pain Point

• Oriel- TIS does not talk the same language around some data fields e.g Ethnic origin, Gender, Sexuality, Religion, Nationality etc. Louise to send list. Programme team have to amend these fields before uploading to TIS . This impact the deadline dates in the code of practice

• One person per region has access to pull data from Oriel

• 90% work on the full report file but some specialties create their own files to work on separately

Pain Points

1. Meeting CoP deadlines

2. Manually adding Programme, rotation and curriculum

3. Changing Oriel language to suit TIS languages

Pain Points

• Single point of failure to download reports

• TIS template not user friendly

• TIS and Oriel not speaking the same Language

• Single point of failure to download reports

• TIS template not user friendly

• TIS and Oriel not speaking the same Language

Oriel - TIS fields Mapping

• Lot of manual mapping of data to suit TIS Language; TIS and Oriel not speaking the same Language;e.g Ethnic origin, Gender, Sexuality, Religion, Nationality etc. Louise to send list. Programme team have to amend these fields before uploading to TIS . This impact the deadline dates in the code of practice.

• Management of TIS People Bulk Upload and moving data from Oriel into TIS is exhausting.

• Some LOs split/separate Records without GMC/GDC from the report and some LO keep them in the same report and complete the Field as ‘UNKNOWN’ or ‘0’ before the template is uploaded to TIS. Foundation and Dental, International Medical Graduates (IMGs) foundation are most likely not to have these numbers.

Visa and Qualification

• For Foundation- The Sponsorship team do ask LOs to remove all Work Permit & Visa details because the information from Oriel is out of date by the time trainees are starting and the Sponsorship team have more up to date information. This is added later either by the team or LOs will add via an import sheet sent to them by the team.

• For Foundation- Qualification details are also added at a later date (using another import). Y&H do have an SQL script that takes Qualification from the GMC but only currently works for trainees with a TIS record. This is because qualifications on Oriel don’t match those held by the GMC and any subsequent reporting looks messy.

Oriel Fields and data

• Column structure do change all the time from Oriel e.g In 2022 the Foundation team confirmed that the ‘Disability’ field in Oriel had been replaced by ‘Day to day activities limited?’

• Not all of the data are pulled from Oriel because they are missing in Oriel.

• Oriel contains data that are irrelevant to TIS.

• No clear fields for programme details and curriculum in Oriel.

Rotation; Programme and Curriculum

• For Foundation specifically: Long time to align correctly programme details for each to on two-year programme. In adding of programme detail, each doctor is on the two-year programme rotates through six different posts. Each post/location has an assigned post number which links to the agreed contract with NHSE. When a doctor is matched to a programme on Oriel they are matched to a ‘track’ which is numbered and it dictates the specialty rotation order they will undertake, Due to the historic nature and randomised fashion of how post numbers have been utilised and linked to posts on TIS this means that we currently have to manually enter on the programme detail upload template which particular post number the doctor is going into

• Programme and Curriculum details depends on Team experience and TIS as it’s not clearly stated in Oriel.

• Manually adding Programme, rotation and curriculum

• Difficult to find programme and curriculum details in Oriel

Post Number and Oriel Reference Number

• Currently we are not able to add the track number from Oriel onto the contract, to enable us to simplify the linking of the specific post number on the contract (potentially allowing use of a vlook up) to an individual and a dated position within TIS.

Access to Oriel

• One person (Super user) per region has access to pull full data from Oriel (Full data includes sensitive data)

• Other users of Oriel have limited access to information.

• 90% of specialties work on the full report file but some specialties create their own files to work on separately and then get the sensitive data from the super user later to add to TIS

Reports creation

• In some LO two reports are created; one for the Admin/Data team and the other for the programme Team

• Some LOs generate one full report for upload and some generate more two or more reports; full report which include Foundation, Full report which exclude Foundation, Foundation report, Different reports; Core, Higher, academic, Foundation etc

TIS and LO Spreadsheet Templates

• TIS templates not user friendly, Spelling errors and other warnings makes them frustrating to use

• Each LO have it’s own template to manage work e.g to keep record of those already on TIS , other issues with the upload and trainees

CoP Deadline

• Because of the above pain points meeting CoP deadlines is very challenging.

Filter and Enrich Oriel Data with Timestamps

The Data Service pulls the Oriel TIS Extract from Hicom’s Data Repository on a regular basis. This data includes all faculties and nations. Proposal would be for the Data Service Team to create a subset of that data for only that relevant to TIS and to enrich the data with a timestamp, for example, and other elements to track changes.

Currently Oriel data is highly restricted due to the amount of records not pertinent to TIS. Creating a subset would allow for giving greater access to the data in the NDW. Enriching the data would allow for the tracking and filtering of the data based on its creation, update, delete, etc.

• NDW team availability

Priority 1 - In progress

Development Done by NDW

Make Oriel Data Available in Tableau in Two Locations with Different User Group Permissions

Local Offices currently have one person who has access to the Oriel data with the EDI fields. This Oriel download is split and shared with different audiences. A folder in the Tableau TIS PID site would be created where only a certain list of users could access. A Tableau workbook would be created with all pertinent Oriel data including the restricted EDI fields. A second Tableau workbook would be created with a restricted list of fields in the main TIS PID site giving wider access.

This would remove the dependency on the one person in each LO running the data from Oriel but still meeting IG requirements. Having the two workbooks would automate the need for the data to be sliced for different audiences.

• Fields Standardisation- restricted and Non-restricted fields

• Standardising the audiences e.g TPDs . Might depend on audiences these reports goes to

Priority 2

Reporting only development

Oriel-TIS Data Comparison Report

Given both Oriel data and TIS data are in the NDW, that data can be compared to show both which records have and have not been uploaded to TIS as well as any Data Quality issues in the uploads.

Currently Local Offices have to use various spreadsheets, look-ups, SSIS packages, etc, to keep track of which records have been uploaded and which have not, or local offices wait until all Oriel deadlines have passed before uploading them to TIS. This would automate this tracker. It would also improve data quality by flagging any anomalies.

• Options 2, 3 and 7

• possible when GMC/GDC/PH number is known

• Reference Data align with Oriel and TIS

Priority 4

Reporting only development

Create Tableau Report which Mirrors Person Bulk Upload and Maps Data accordingly.

Mapping data from Oriel to the TIS Bulk Upload is the most complicated process Local Offices do for on-boarding. The report would do this mapping in the correct format where possible. Where TIS fields cannot be automatically mapped from Oriel data this will be presented to the admin in a consumable way.

This would greatly reduce the time admins spend manually mapping data into the TIS Person Upload

• Option 7? To decide when we define scope

• Option 3 - Need a space in Tableau, EDI fields etc

• Define scope of this piece of work- Define the minimum and Option 5 e.g exclude programme and placement details.

Priority 3

Reporting only development

Given the current nature of Oriel data structure this would be very complicated to get right and will still require manual input in some/many instances.

Ensure TIS ProgrammeName and TIS ProgrammeNumber is added to Oriel VacancyOffers

TIS ProgrammeName and ProgrammeNumber fields were added to TIS in 2020 to allow Oriel data to be mapped automatically to TIS. Without access to Oriel data in the format required until 2023 that data has not been maintained. The proposal would be to ensure future vacancies have that information populated.

This would in theory allow for the majority if not all Oriel data to be mapped to the TIS Person Upload automatically. This would potentially allow for a fully automated process in future.

• Make Mandatory in Oriel

• Oriel BAU agreement

• Time delay when data are added to Oriel- to start doing development like May for Aug. 2025

Priority 6

Given the timescales around Oriel vacancies, this would take over a year to implement. For August 2025 new starters this would need to be added on to Oriel by October 2024. If this is missed, it would not have an impact to August 2026.

Ensure LoV alignment between Oriel and TIS

This would be to ensure the TIS reference table lists of values match those used by applicants on Oriel while applying.

If these values do not align it adds a considerable amount of manual work for admins to do when uploading data from Oriel to TIS.

Meeting with Oriel Project Manager - Alice set

Priority 5

This process has already been discussed and partially actioned.

Create an interface within TIS for Oriel data to be mapped and uploaded

Rather than using Tableau and bulk upload spreadsheets an interface in TIS would be created where Oriel data was surfaced and Local Offices added any missing data required before the equivalent records being created on TIS.

This would make the whole this an in-app process without the need to use multiple systems. Having a TIS based interface could improve the UX and potential errors.

• Large resource required

This would require considerable development resource. Oriel data is currently held in Hicom’s Data Repository rather than being accessible via an API.

Use Oriel Procurement to Develop an Integrated Process/System

A 3rd Party Discovery for the procurement of a Recruitment System is concluding (as of January 2024). It was flagged as a requirement in this discovery to smooth the flow of data between TIS and Oriel or its equivalent. A more integrated solution could be created as part of this process.

This could potentially allow for more, improved options around the transfer of data between these two systems.

• Use Oriel procurement - TIS don’t have control over

Timescales are unknown.

Use Oriel Data to Automatically Insert or Update TIS Person Record Only

Accurate mapping of Oriel data to TIS ProgrammeMemberships, CurriculumMemberships and Placements can be quite complex and often involves experience of administrators to do. These areas could be ignored and instead a person record could be automatically created in TIS where there is not existing matched record transferring all available person fields from Oriel. Where a matched record does exist relevant fields could be updated.

This would save time creating or updating Person records where Oriel to TIS data can be mapped accurately. It then save administrators the time to focus on areas where their expertise is required, e.g. ProgrammeMemberships, CurriculumMemberships and Placements. These could then be added on the frontend as some administrators prefer or through bulk uploaded with far fewer fields required.

• Option 7

• Fields Alignment

Would require TIS development. Would still leave a lot of ‘manual’ work to the administrators.

OfferPreference is different to OfferDescription. This field allows for users to know the difference between rotation zones, e.g. GP Programmes in the Midlands if they are North/South/etc.

Lauren: Only relevant for PH, but it determines whether they've been appointed to the Medical or Non-Medical route. James Response: We can but I'll wait to here an update on the above first as I am concerned giving a series of new requests before the others are completed will slow the above down. Lauren: That's fine, I'm not sure if other regions split these out by programme so it might just be the Midlands that cares about that information, I already have the information for this first intake and there's not likely to be much change in applicants so not urgent for being able to use the data for Round 2 like some of the other requested fields

Oriel-TIS Data Mapping to person upload template: Some records having Visitor, visa / PLAB visa / Business Visitor visa' in the permit to work column. Does anyone know what the suitable TIS value is?

Mike Richardson Response: None of the values on the dropdown seem appropriate for that.

James Response: I think Skilled worker is probably correct but I can check with Gemma Walker who is the lead for OST. Is that the only value in question? Andrew’s Response: That's the only one on my particular download that didn't upload and on checking have an obvious other value. Having a google over lunch it appears most people can visit the UK for 6 months without requiring a VISA, and that includes allowing them to do to things like the PLAB exam. So they probably don't actually have or have a need for a VISA, at the point of application anyway. They will likely need one now I imagine as they've been appointed, but that will be different to that value on their application form. James Response: That doesn't really seem like a 'Permit to work' as it's a visitor visa

Gemma has confirmed that leaving it blank would be the best option as they will not be on a visitor visa when they actually start.
