BTHE Automations


The Badger TraCS Hosted Environment has numerous automations set in place.

Notifications are ongoing and are triggered throughout the day. We have 3 notifications that you could receive

  1. Crash form 10 day notice sent to the owner of the form. Crash forms are required by statute to be sent to the DOT within 10 days of accident date. DSP: Crash Records Unit

    1. This is sent once a day after the 10 days are up.

  2. Rejected forms: Both the TraCS unit and your supervisors can reject a form and an email notice will be sent to the owner of the form. Rejected Status: Fixing a Rejected Form

    1. This is sent once a day immediately after a form is rejected.

  3. ELCI Inventory form: A notice is sent once the inventory gets to 200 citation number left. It is sent to the owner of the form

    1. This is sent once.

  4. ELCI's older than 90 Days: A notice is sent to the owner of the form. ELCI forms in TraCS are designed to be either completed, issued and transmitted or voided and transmitted in a timely manner. Forms left in an OPEN status for extended periods run the risk the form not being the most current version. If users are not issuing opened ELCIs, the forms should be voided and promptly transmitted. Transmission allows for the ELCI number that was issued to the agency to be accounted for as required: UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION (ELCI) - STATUTE REQUIREMENTS 

    1. ELCI forms not transmitted

    2. Form Date is before the previous 3 months

    3. Hold is equal to blank

    4. Form is not archived

  5. ELCI's older than 1 Year: A notice is sent to the owner of the form. ELCI forms in TraCS are designed to be either completed, issued and transmitted or voided and transmitted in a timely manner. Forms left in an OPEN status for extended periods run the risk the form not being the most current version. If users are not issuing opened ELCIs, the forms should be voided and promptly transmitted. Transmission allows for the ELCI number that was issued to the agency to be accounted for as required: UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION (ELCI) - STATUTE REQUIREMENTS
