The Search Vehicle SearchResults screen in the legacy OPS-COM Parking Enforcement application displays comprehensive vehicle information after a plate search is performed. Its primary purpose is to give patrol officers immediate access to permit, violation, and chalking history so they can make informed enforcement decisions directly in the field. This guide is intended for OPS-COM administrators and field personnel using the legacy Android application.
