INTRODUCTION The County Commissioners Association of Pennsylvania (CCAP), in conjunction with the County Chief Adult Probation and Parole Officers Association and the Pennsylvania District Attorneys Institute, received grant funding to improve the quality of information collected within the local criminal justice record keeping system. The grant provides for CCAP to develop a method for Pennsylvania to improve the quality of information collected within the local criminal justice automated records systems. This Best Practices User Manual for Data Entry into County Criminal Justice Records Systems has been developed as part of this grant and is based on the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) version 2.0. The NIEM is the result of a collaborative effort by the justice and homeland security domains to produce a set of common, consistent and well-defined data elements to be used for data exchange. NIEM was designed to be used as a consistent baseline for exchanging information within and across local, state, federal and tribal agencies. Through consulting with Pennsylvania county and state criminal justice subject matter experts, the data elements listed within this manual were determined to be the critical core set of data elements common across these agencies. This manual is intended to provide the criminal justice practitioner with a reference guide to entering this information in a standard and consistent manner, ultimately improving the quality of information within the local records management system. It is anticipated that counties involved with standardizing the information entered into their local records management systems, following the NIEM guidelines, will benefit through: 1. INCREASED REPORTING ACCURACY: The more consistently, accurately and more standardized the data entered within records management system(s), the more meaningful the reports will be for county administrators. Effective management and planning can only be achieved with accurate reports. 2. IMPROVED ELECTRONIC REPORTING: Counties are increasingly being required to electronically report and to transfer criminal justice information. However, the ability to successfully transfer meaningful and accurate information is hindered by differences in how and what data is entered in the records management systems. 3. STANDARDS-BASED INFORMATION SHARING: Standards-based information sharing can also mean quicker access to and better understanding of data that crosses system, agency and jurisdiction borders. This means that individuals will not have to reenter the same data multiple times, delay critical decisions for lack of data or take action based on inaccurate or incomplete information. 4. IMPROVED PUBLIC SAFETY: Timely access to quality information enables better decision making, which can easily translate into saving lives. Getting the right information to the right people all of the time means that officials will be properly equipped to make informed decisions in planning for, preventing or responding to criminal incidents and day-to-day operations. 5. IMPROVED GOVERNMENT EFFECTIVENESS: The ability of government personnel to effectively serve the public and to deliver positive outcomes, hinges on the availability of appropriate and accurate information. Access to such information ensures that decisions are made and assistance provided as quickly as possible. Additional information regarding the Data Quality Grant, a pdf version of this document, and a searchable data repository can be obtained on CCAP s website at the following address: http://pacounties.org/technologyservices/pages/criminaljusticeprojects.aspx Additional information regarding the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) can be found at http://www.niem.gov. 1

Comment: If birthdates is unknown, leave blank and do not put zeros. 5

3. EYE COLOR FIELD EYE COLOR The color of the eyes of a person. EYE COLOR CODE BLK BLU BRO GRN GRY HAZ MAR MUL PNK XXX EYE COLOR TEXT BLACK BLUE BROWN GREEN GRAY HAZEL MAROON MULTICOLORED PINK UNKNOWN 4.

ONLY Pennsylvania SID S are to be entered into this field. 2. SID s from other states should always be entered into a Miscellaneous ID field. 3. The first time someone is fingerprinted they are assigned a SID. This is the main key along with OTN which connects PBPP, AOPC and DOC records management systems. Without an SID, data cannot be applied to CCHRI. 12.

Many records management systems will pre-format the OTN, for example Q333333-0; however, when electronically exchanging data, no punctuation marks or spaces area used. Comment: An OTN is assigned for every arrest fingerprint taken. This is the main key into CCHRI. Without the OTN, any data that is sent to CCHRI cannot be applied. *Due to the interchanging of Charge Tracking Identification and Offense Tracking Number, the OTN is cross referenced in Number 19. 13. SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER FIELDS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (SSN) A unique reference to a living person; assigned by the United States Social Security Administration. Best Practices: 123-45-6789 (User Interface) 123456789 (electronically exchanging information) 999999999 (If no SSN is available, then all nines should be entered.) 123456789 Comment: 1.

When electronically exchanging information, there should be no spaces or hyphens in the SSN. ALIAS SSN An alias reference to a living person; not assigned by the United States Social Security Administration to this person. Best Practices: 123-45-6789 (User Interface entered with other alias information) 123456789 (No hyphens when exchanging information electronically) Comment: 1. Many records management systems will pre-format the SSN in the user interface in the standard format of 123-45-6798. 2. When electronically exchanging information, there should be no spaces or 11

hyphens in the SSN (ex. 123456789). 14. UNITED STATES CITIZEN INDICATOR FIELD U.S. CITIZEN INDICATOR True if a person is a citizen of the United States; false otherwise.

OFFENSE TRACKING NUMBER (OTN) / CHARGE TRACKING IDENTIFICATION A unique identifying number assigned to an entire set of charges for an arrest. Different numbers may appear in the set if cases have been consolidated. Best Practices: Q333333-0 (User Interface) Q3333330 (When exchanging data) Q3333330 No spaces, no hyphens or other punctuation. Many records management systems will pre-format the OTN, for example Q333333-0; however, when electronically exchanging data, no punctuation marks or spaces area used. Comment: 1. OTN is assigned for every arrest fingerprint taken. This is the main key into CCHRI. Without this key, data that is sent to CCHRI cannot be applied 2. Due to the interchanging of Charge Tracking Identification and Offense Tracking Number, the OTN is cross referenced in Number 12. 20.
