TDCJ-CJAD Data Manual - Texas Department of Criminal Justice

Page 2 of 2I need to check my numbers from last year and the website will not let me see data from theprevious fiscal year. How do I get my data?A copy of the data submitted each year should be maintained by the CSCD. The report can beprinted by selecting File, Print from within the web browser after clicking the Update button. Ifyou are unable to find the data you submitted, contact the Research and Evaluation Unit.What do I do if I get a web configuration error?Contact Beki Pool in our Information Technology department at (512) 463-8060.Pretrial discharges reported on the MCSCR do not match to the pretrial program dischargesbecause not all cases are discharged from pretrial on the MCSCR (some are revoked, thus arenot reported under pretrial terminations).The Actual Program Output Report for pretrial programs is not required to match the pretrialMCSCR terminations. Count the number of discharges (regardless of type to includerevocations) on the Actual Program Output Report.How can I get the form to accept a program where there are no discharge types (for exampleCSR)?Discharges should be counted under “Unknown” when the discharge type is unknown or if thereis no discharge type.What do I do about programs listed on the website that we no longer operate?Please zero out the program by entering zeros in every field and hitting the “Update” button tosubmit the data. This will let Research and Evaluation staff now that the program is no longeroperated and will prevent them from contacting the CSCD to submit the data.What should I do if we have programs showing that my CSCD has never operated?Contact the Research and Evaluation Unit for assistance.How can I tell if my data was submitted?When the Update button is hit, the time and date will automatically populate in the field below.Then scroll up to the top of the page, if it says ‘Success’ in the left-hand corner the data has beentransmitted successfully. If it says ‘Error,’ errors need to be fixed and the data resubmitted byclicking the Update button again. Also, when data has been submitted, the program code anddesignator will be listed in the box on the upper right-hand side of the screen.- 61 ­
