Users can manual change the DA Routing field. If YES, the citation will only get transmitted to DA office. If No, the citation will only be transmitted to the court selected. Transmission to court is only available if your Municipal court has been setup. All Circuit Courts have been setup.

Timely Transmission of TraCS eCitations for DA Routing

For an eCitation to be useful to the DA office, it MUST be received by them in a timely fashion. In general, that means less than 24 hours from the time of the incident, and certainly before the paperwork arrives in their office, particularly if the defendant is in custody. The eCitation information is needed for the DA to file the criminal complaint.

For an eCitation to be received in the DA office, Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) TraCS Administration staff should insure the following procedure is implemented in their agency:

The Officer must put a “Y” in the "DA ROUTING?" field. The DA Routing fields are in the "Plaintiff" section of the form.
Once in ISSUED status, if the citation was issued from a TraCS Field Unit, the citation must be End Shifted into the LEA TraCS Office Database as soon as possible, typically at end of shift. If the ELCI was completed and ISSUED in the office on a TraCS Workstation, it is already in the TraCS Office Database, ready for TRANSMISSION.
Citations in an ISSUED status should be reviewed/approved per LEA policy and then TRANSMITTED from TraCS Utilities. As mentioned above, in general, that means less than 24 hours from the time of the incident, and before the paperwork arrives in the DA office.

This also applies to any non-criminal Citations associated with a criminal incident that your DA wishes to receive. Routing non-criminal eCitations to the DA office is something that should be discussed and decided between the referring LEA, the DA and the Clerk of Circuit Court, as each county may have their own thoughts on how this should be handled.

Summary Group

Each NTC contains one Summary group. The Narrative field consists of 2000 characters and is only available on the Officer report.

WIBRS Group

Each NTC contains one WIBRS section if enabled which consists of five groups. The WIBRS section is optional for agency use. There is a report available for printing. If your agency doesn’t enable it, the group will not display. Contact your System Administrator if you should see this section but don’t.

NOTE: It’s important to fill out this section from the top down.
