Dartmouth Risk Management computers run two MicroNiche apps (www.microniche.com). Risk Management has licenses for two specific versions.
- Workers’ Compensation Claims Management System (WCCMS v8.2.40.25)
- Liability Claims Management System (LCMS v8.2.42.10)
Both apps point to an on-prem server - workcomp-db-prd.kiewit.dartmouth.edu managed by Infrastructures Services. Newer versions of these apps should not be installed without the server being upgraded as well.
Both apps should only be installed on staff computers by direction from Risk Management. Not every Risk Management staff computer requires MicroNiche apps. Check with Risk Management to confirm versions.
Installers can be found in \\OF_Finance_Admin\RICS\Risk\SOP-Office\MicroNiche (but verify they are correct versions).
Copy .zip to desktop and extract before running installer. If applications had previously been installed but have disappeared for user, run Repair.
After installing, edit each app’s “ads.ini” file using details below. Ads.ini file can also be copied from a Risk Management computer running these apps or from the MicroNiche OurFiles folder. If not present, copy into the folder.

Note: If you get permission errors saving changes to the ads.ini file, move it to the desktop and make edits there.
Verify install with user: Open WCCMS and LCMS apps, log in with Risk Management user id and password, confirm connection to each app's MicroNiche database.
