Warrants

The following privileges related to the Warrants module appear in the Warrants privilege category.

Within this category, there are "static" privileges, as well as workflow privileges. Generally, the static privileges determine which buttons and options appear to users when they open a court paper. The workflow privileges determine which actions a user can take on court papers, depending on the court paper's current state (Draft, Finalized, etc.).

Workflows

Once created, a court paper moves through a workflow, for example, Draft → Finalized. Each state is associated with multiple privileges, which give you granular control over which users can take actions on a report, based on its current state.

The following workflows are used in the Warrants module:

Warrant

Court papers that do NOT require a review move through the following workflow: Draft → Finalized.

Warrant Review

Court papers that DO require a review move through the following workflow: Draft → Review → Finalized.

Warrant Assignment

Warrants can be assigned for service. During this process, the warrant moves through the following workflow: Open → Closed.

The privileges for workflows appear at the end of the Warrants category. Each workflow has its own subcategory, and within that subcategory, privileges are sorted by state. The states are listed alphabetically, not by the order in which they appear in the workflow. For example, Closed, which is the final state, appears before Open.

The hover tooltip for the first state in the workflow provides additional details about the workflow as a whole and not just that workflow state.

The table below explains how each workflow privilege works.
