What do blue fields indicate in the transaction screen?

The blue fields on the transaction screen signify mandatory fields that must be completed for the transaction to proceed. This visual cue serves as an important guideline for users to ensure that all necessary information is provided before submission. By highlighting these fields in blue, the system effectively communicates to the user that failure to fill out these sections will result in an incomplete transaction, which could delay processing or create issues in the record-keeping systems. Understanding which fields are mandatory is crucial for compliance and to ensure the accuracy of data entry within the Criminal Justice Information Services framework. This distinction helps users prioritize their input and ensures that critical information is not overlooked.
