How digiTICKET Works
How to create tickets using digiTICKET:
1. Scan a driver license: digiTICKET can scan the back of virtually any state’s drivers license or ID card to enter all driver information into the ticket automatically – whether the drivers license stores the data on a magnetic strip or a barcode. Saltus also offers the optional capability to perform NCIC queries on people and vehicles. If this capability is implemented, the returned query data can be used to automaticaly fill person and vehicle fields on the ticket.
2. Enter other ticket data: Using drop down lists and simple-to-use screens, all data can easily be entered in less than one minute.
3. Add violations: Most common violations are added by selecting from a drop down list or a simple key word search of the violations description – no more cheat sheets required.
4. Print the ticket: Paper tickets are printed from an affordable Bluetooth thermal printer. Up to eight violations can be printed on a single four-inch wide ticket, formatted to look just like your pre-printed ticket books. digiTICKET can even print different formatted tickets based on ticket type (i.e. parking, municipal or county).
5. Capture photo, electronic signature and voice notes: Officers have the option of using the digiTICKET handheld ticket writer to capture the violator’s signature along with a digital photo. If comments require a long narrative, the officer can also record voice notes related to the stop.
6. Synchronize tickets to the server software: At the end of a shift, the officer easily submits ticket data to the digiTICKET server software from the handhelds or laptops running the digiTICKET software. Once uploaded, tickets can be edited, reproduced in PDF format and exported to your Court or Record Management System.
7. Create reports: Once on the server software, tickets can be edited, reproduced in PDF format and exported to your Court or Record Management System.
8. Manage statutes and court dates: Users with appropriate permissions can add, edit or remove statutes and update court dates and times. Court dates can be set to “advance” automatically to the next available date based on docket size or number of days to the next appropriate court type.
9. Create reports: All ticket data is stored on the digiTICKET server and can be used to create reports that your RMS or Court system doesn’t already provide.
