Violations by Officer Report

The Violations by Officer Report allows administrators to generate a detailed list of citations issued by specific patrol staff within a defined timeframe. Its primary purpose is to help management audit individual officer performance, review ticket categories, and track specific violation details like warnings or spoiled tickets. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators.

Setup and Configuration

This report is a standard feature within the violations module and requires no specialized system setup to run. However, administrators must have the appropriate reporting and violations management permissions assigned to their user role to access this page. Ensure that your field staff are accurately configured as ticket writers within their user profiles so their activity is properly captured in the report.

Using this Feature

Administrators can use this tool to filter violation issuance data by specific personnel, date ranges, and ticket statuses, and then export the results for performance reviews or external audits.

Selecting to downloadsearch by Issued Date rather than Due Date is generally recommended when strictly auditing an officer's daily patrol productivity, as ticket due dates can fluctuate significantly based on appeal statuses and grace periods.

Best Practices and Considerations

  • Audit spoiled tickets regularly: Management should routinely run this report filtered by the Spoiled state. This helps identify officers who may be frequently voiding tickets or making entry errors, which could indicate a need for additional system training.

  • Preserve historical productivity data: Always use the Export button to downloadsave thehistorical file.enforcement data for performance reviews. Saving these files externally ensures you maintain accurate records for personnel files or legal auditing purposes, even if an officer's system profile is later modified or deactivated.
