Police Records Management

Master Name Module

The Master Name Module records and tracks all information related to an individual including physical characteristics, indentifiers, tracking numbers, and personal information.  An unlimited number of addresses may be assigned to each person, but the Master Name Module always displays the most current address.  A click of the scroll bar allows you to scroll back through previous addresses, so the person's complete history of addresses is maintained.  Digital images may be assigned to each master name record.  Cardinal's NotePad feature allows you to add additional narrative information about any person. Once you create a Master Name record for an individual, you will never have to re-enter the same information again.  Whether you arrest the person, issue him a citation, initiate a field interview, or if he is the victim of a crime - whatever the reason!  Once he is in your Master Name database, you simply select his Master Name record and all of his information is linked to whatever new record you are creating. 

Click on Master Name History option in the toolbar and see an instant listing of all instances where your agency has had contact with the individual.  Simply double click on any listed incident, and BADGE take you directly to that particular record so you view all details.
