The WE Data Tools Service Provider Portal integrates with the Employment Ontario Case Management System (CaMS) to provide staff with a unified view of client data. This integration allows staff to see all of a client’s case details in one place—including Client Stream, CaMS Reference Number, and the Employment Action Plan (EAP).

Frequently Asked Questions

No. At this time, none of the CaMS data shown in the Jobs Portal is visible to clients.

No. CaMS data is not real-time. To prevent performance issues, the information shown in the Jobs Portal is updated daily during an overnight sync. Data entered or modified in CaMS earlier in the day will appear in the Jobs Portal after the next sync. Caseworkers can manually refresh a client’s data using the Refresh option.

After a client is linked to their CaMS record, select the Overview tab of the client’s profile to view the following CaMS data:

  • CaMS Reference Number
  • Client Stream
  • Citizenship
  • Marital Status
  • Immigration Status
  • Identifies As
  • Preferred Language
  • Email Address
  • Phone Number
  • Primary Mailing Address

The Employment Action Plan (EAP) tab displays the client’s EAP data retrieved from CaMS. This section is read-only and cannot be modified within the Jobs Portal. All changes must be made directly in CaMS.

The EAP provides a detailed view of the client’s employment plan, including goals, outcomes, and progress, allowing staff to review all case activity in one place.

  • Updates made in CaMS are reflected in the Jobs Portal through the nightly data sync. For immediate updates, use the Refresh option.

Case Details

At the top of the EAP tab, the Case Details panel displays key client information and a status badge indicating whether the plan is Active or Closed.

Employment Outcomes

The Employment Outcomes section summarizes the client’s most recent employment results recorded in CaMS.

Sub-Goals Summary

Sub-Goal Detail View

Selecting a sub-goal from the main EAP screen opens the sub-goal detail view, where you can review the sub-goal details and see a summary of its related plan items. Each plan item can be expanded to display additional details.

Plan Items

Expanding a plan item reveals detailed information organized into three sections:

  • Details: includes key reference and tracking details.
  • Status: displays approval and submission details.
  • Audit: specifies who the plan item was audited by and when.
  • All information shown in the EAP is read-only and reflects the data available in CaMS at the time of the last sync.
