PC Base Software - Data Entry Default Utility
 

All of the drop down data entry fields on the MobileCite Handheld or Laptop are defined through the use of the Data Entry Default Utility. When your new MobileCite System is installed, it will already have the most commonly used data entry choices configured.   Additionally, Cardinal's installation team will work with your staff to make sure your codes and descriptions match those in your Court Records System and/or Police Records System.

At some point in the future you will have the need or desire to make changes in the available codes for certain fields.  Perhaps a new violation code has been created by your state's legislature, a new street name in your city needs to be added, or a new Vehicle Make or Model has been introduced.  These are just a few examples of the many times you will want to add or modify your existing codes.

Other available systems on the market handle this situation by forcing you to call them and request a change be made.  You then have to wait until the company has the time to make the requested changes, compile a new version of the software and send it to you.  Another company requires that you ship the handheld unit to their offices where they make the changes you request.

Cardinal takes a different approach with MobileCite.  We give your System Administrator the ability to quickly and easily add, edit or delete codes and descriptions any time you need to.  The changes can be made in a matter of seconds from a PC using our Data Entry Default Utility. 

After the changes are made, MobileCite will ask if you want to rebuild the configuration file for the handhelds or laptops?

Simply choose "Yes" and the changes you made will automatically be sent to all handhelds or laptops the next time they download their citation data.  It's as simple as that!

With MobileCite you won't have to worry about contacting the software company and asking how much they will charge to make various code changes and then wait an unknown amount of time for the changes to be made.  Instead, MobileCite puts YOU in CONTROL!
