Overview
After a user logs into TraCS for first time, their default profile is created. Any defaults created by the user after that are saved to that profile each time they log out of the system.
Be sure to log out of TraCS properly by pressing the X in the upper right corner or by going to the File tab on the upper left and pressing Exit. If you do not log out properly, your defaults will not save.
If you use more than one computer for TraCS, be sure you log out of TraCS on one before logging into the other. If you are logged in to more than one machine at the same time, defaults will save on the machine where you log out last. You could lose any new defaults that you have created.
Default settings include the following:
Agency name, city, & county on forms
Officer name, badge, and ID number on forms
Officer Signature
Day/Night Mode preference
Zoom level on forms
Column layout
Search tab view & docking
Navigation Bar view & docking
Quick Add icon order
Ribbon settings
Favorite, AdHoc, and Advanced Searches
Auto Print settings
Form Field Defaults
Once officers add their agency, city, county, name, and badge number on each type of form, that information saves to their default profile and will populate in those fields going forward.
The last thing that is entered is what will save to those fields.
If the officer makes a mistake and enters incorrect information in those fields, they should fix it on the next new form they create.
If the officer's name or badge number changes, they should update it on the next new form that they create. Each form type used by the agency must be updated. For example, if the agency uses crash, UTC, and tow, the officer must change their information on all three.
Default Signature
Officers may add a default signature to their profile. Once added, the signature will automatically be added to forms.
A signature is required on UTC and DUI citations. Adding a default signature saves the officer from having to do it each time they write a citation.
Instructions on how to create one are here.
