37. Colorado Secretary of State e-FILING COLORADO ADMINISTRATIVE RULES Negative Aspects – Challenges / Solutions The ChallengeThe Solution Rule text stored by paragraph – creates overly long processing times, database too complex and as a result sometimes blocks of text shift to the wrong location in the document Store rules in database as documents, update at the document level, access and view rules at the document level Conversion process inefficient (Word to HTML) – lengthy processing time as each paragraph processed separately, strips all MSWord Codes therefore document loses all original formatting Hide MS codes when displaying in HTML rather than strip them from document Update process linked awkwardly to filingsSeparate eFiling from CCR update process. Links and Navigation not intuitive – links are not obvious, History is hidden in headings above rules Underline links or create buttons, move History to allow users to view the History of a rule before they reach the text of the rule Rule displays in HTML only, making download or printout of rule difficult Offer more viewing/download options including Word document format. PDF as a future goal.
