Accepting Forms - Why It Is Necessary

All forms in TraCS should be accepted, either by a supervisor or via auto-accept.   Why?

An accepted form indicates that a form has passed validation and either a supervisor has approved it or the auto accept process has run.

Forms must be in Accepted status in order to process for export to FLSHMV, the Clerk of Courts (COC), Florida Fish & Wildlife (FWC), and/or to the agency for RMS and/or outside vendor.   Forms in Open, Rejected, Reviewed, Validated, Voided, or any other status besides Accepted will not process.

FLSHMV - Long Form crashes, Short Form crashes, and Updates

Clerk of Courts (COC) - UTC's

Florida Fish & Wildlife (FWC) - Boating citations

Agency RMS and/or outside vendor - Crash, UTC, Warnings, Parking, Tow, and/or any forms you have set up to export

Forms must be in Accepted status to show on may of the pre-built Analysis Reports.

Example 1 - The Officer Summary Report will only count forms in Accepted status or higher.   If you run this report and the numbers seem off, you probably are not accepting your forms.
