Suspects dialog added to the Arrestee page

In a previous release, the Suspects dialog was added, displaying when you create an arrest report with a case number. The dialog allows you to select a suspect from the case as the arrestee or create a new one.

Now, this functionality has also been added to the Arrestee page within the Arrest Report module. Adding this dialog to the Arrestee page is helpful in situations such as the wrong arrestee being selected when creating the arrest report, needing to change the arrestee to another suspect associated with the case, etc.

When the Suspect dialog displays on the Arrestee page, the following occurs:

• If the associated case contains one or more suspects, the Suspect dialog displays with the option for you to select which subject should be added to the report as the arrestee. You can also choose to create a new arrestee instead.

If an existing subject is selected as the arrestee, their information is automatically added to the Arrestee page, but can still be edited.

• If the associated case contains no suspects, the Suspects dialog states that an arrestee needs to be manually added. Click Start to begin adding the new arrestee.
