Abstract
An offender management system (OMS) is a system designed to help process information related to inmates of a correctional facility. Information about an inmate's behavioral history, history in the legal system, and the inmate's financial account are all tracked in an OMS. OMS have been housed on the correctional facility premises, and are proprietary based on the needs of the correctional facility. The current disclosure is directed to an OMS that is housed remotely in data centers and has comprehensive functionality and customizability based on simple guided user interfaces (GUIs). This allows correctional facility administrators to easily customize the OMS to suit the needs of their facilities while removing the overhead required to maintain such systems. The customizability also allows the OMS to serve multiple jurisdictions at once. The centralized OMS contains many novel abilities such as workflow creation, real-time status monitoring of prison processes and accounting processing functions.
