The “User Management” category contains “Roles/Permissions,” “Users,” “User Lock Groups,” and “Role Templates.”
The “Roles/Permissions” section will allow the review of what each permission will do when assigned.
These permissions will guide assigning roles in the initial setup of the agency’s users.
Below is an example of the permission names within the roles/permissions.
The “Users” section will allow for agency users to be entered.
To add a user, click the “Add User” button and enter the user's details. When entering the user, be sure to use a “Microsoft” associated or “outlook.com” email address the user will be utilizing to log into the software.
It is recommended that demographics be added to basic information for officers. The system can generate a report showing the department’s demographics and ratio to ticketed/arrested/use of force subjects. This may be valuable for accreditation standards or citizen inquiries.
The user’s “O-key” number (Georgia POST training) can also be entered. This can be helpful when using the user files as a “Rolodex” for supervisors.
This section allows the officer’s signature to be uploaded and printed for e-citations and incident reports. To use it, create a signature by scanning an image or using a touch-screen device to save it as a “JPG.” Then click the “Select Signature” button and upload the image.
The “User Lock Group” section will allow users to add “restricted” groups for sensitive investigation material. The feature will enable specific users to be assigned to a group; only then will they have access to cases assigned to that group. This feature is recommended for Internal Affairs-related reports and other investigative cases, such as child sex crimes.
The “Role Templates” section allows users to utilize prebuilt role templates to assign to users. This can be used as a guide to create roles for new users. Another feature in this section is the “Add Roles from User.” Once a new user is created and roles assigned, the roles can be assigned using the previously made user profile. For example, once one RMS reporting officer is created and the roles are assigned, additional users can be added, and the role can be duplicated.
