• On-screen Reporting Capabilities. Upon completion of each jail or prison form, agencies receive an on-screen report that summarizes their responses. This enhancement was implemented after respondents relayed to BJS that a summary of the data responses would allow respondents to assess the completeness of their submission while allowing them to review and edit their entries prior to submission (see Figure 6).

• Explicit confirmation of form completion following online form submission. Upon submitting their data, respondents now receive explicit confirmation that their submission is complete for the relevant reference year (see Figure 6).
