Task 3.7(a): Implement Court Date Selector, Code Table Alternative

Purpose:  Creates a table of court appointments to be used when completing citation forms.  If your court has a web service for requesting court appointments, skip the code table alternative and perform the web alternative instead— task 3.7(b).

TraCS can help you easily manage the court dates (and times) that are entered on the citation forms.  This leads to greater accuracy when completing forms and fewer headaches with the courts.  You may create multiple schedules with each court (for example, separate traffic, juvenile and general schedules), assign blackout dates, and create a schedule of court appointments for a whole calendar year (or shorter or longer period) in just a few minutes.

Requirements: TraCS Office computer, web client and system admin account, knowledge of your courts’ schedule. Add a Court to the Agency court table in Task 3.6 Limit Court List

Note: you will be working with three utility forms, Court Schedules, which creates one or more empty schedules for your court; Court Blackout Dates, which defines holidays and other days on which court cannot be held; and Court Appointments, which creates the actual court dates and times that will be used to populate the citation forms.

This task is a 3-4 step process.
