PTWins Code Enforcement module
has the ability to store the full text of your Municipal Code so that it is instantly
available for consultation.
You can enter your codes on the Municipal Code page of the Selection Values window. Each
code record contains 3 fields: A Code Identifier which is usually used for the legal
section identifier assigned to each part of your code; A Code Descriptor which is usually
the shorthand name given to each part of your code; And a Text memo field which can
contain unlimited text for the body of each part of your code.
When you are creating a Code Enforcement record and pull down the list of selections for
the code violated you will see the Code Identifier and Code Descriptor for all of the code
records you have entered into the PTWin system. Selecting a value from the list will fill
in both fields.
To view the text of the code you have selected simply press the Code Text button found on
the Code Enforcement window toolbar.
You can use the standard Windows cut, copy, and paste commands to enter your Code Text or
to move it to another Windows program. If your code is already in an on-line format, you
can choose to use a copy of Paradox for Windows to import your codes into PTWin, or we can
import it for you.
Storing the text of your Municipal Code in PTWin makes sure youre never at a loss
for the particulars of your Municipal Code.
