Paragon Software International, Inc. announces the development of E-CRIME for future availability in the 2004 budget year. E-CRIME is the result of the marriage of the desktop PC Windows interface with the speed, stability, and sheer power of the AS/400. All of our existing AS/400 host based CRIME modules will be available using E-CRIME. Each of the modules will be enhanced and extended through the use of E-CRIME.

E-CRIME is a new way to use the system with a familiar browser look and feel. In past discussions we have called this a graphical browser for the CRIME system. It is a combination of the good features of WEB browsers and AS/400 terminals.

E-CRIME does not void, replace or in anyway affect the customer’s current licenses of CRIME modules. We are not charging our customers for all the work that has gone into building E-CRIME. We consider this to be one of many evolutionary steps this product has and will take over its life time. We expect that one day everyone will be using E-CRIME and wondering how they ever got along without it.

You know what they say….A picture is worth a thousand words. Here are some screen shots and a few words explaining what is happening.

E-CRIME launches from an icon on the desktop when installed locally.

Here we see the signon screen which can be customized to include your agency’s logo or emblem.

Here we see the welcome screen.

Here we see the E-CRIME Home menu. It features a navigation bar on the left and frequently used items along the top.

Here we see the Home menu with the mouse pointing to the REPORTS navigation button. All of the buttons and menu items react to mouse movement over them.

Here we see the Home menu with the mouse pointing to the Search menu item in the left navigation pane.

Here we see the resulting Search menu. Notice the left navigation pane is still there. From here you can directly go to any other part of the system.

Here we see the result of selecting "Other Searches", where a second level of menu is displayed. In this screen the mouse over the BACK button which will take us back to the last menu.

Here we are back on "Search Menu" and the mouse is over person search.

Here is the Person Search. Double click a name in the list to go into the details.

To use other options on the list, use the right click to show this pop-up window of options.

Here we see James Smith in Subject Maintenance. Navigation to all the parts of a subject is done using the tabs at the top of the screen. The mouse is currently over the Personal info tab.

Here we see the Personal Information screen with the mouse over the Contacts tab.

Here we see the Contacts page.

Here we see the Incident Service Search selected from the menu.

Here is the calendar pull down from the search date.

Here is an incident selected from a search. Its just test data folks, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Each module uses a different color theme in the headings to make it easier to recognize where you are.

And that ends the screen tour. The system is still recognizable but has a lot of new capabilities. This is a great step forward for the product.
