The Current Case Number will be the last case number put into the ARMS system and the Assign Starting Case Number is the number that will be given to the next case put into the ARMS system. The Can Edit Case Number in the CAD Issue Report window allows a dispatcher to change the number of the next number given to a case in the system. The Not Auto Assign Nbr makes it, so the officers put in the case numbers manually and they are not auto-assign.   ![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/43377895851/original/tv30tXyZjHWyIvffzmxfsqEYpG0P-0LtEA.png?1670423585) Figure 1 Case Setup   The Case Number formatting is how you choose how you would like to display your case reports. This format mixed with the Current Case Number will give you the full Current Case Number, so for this ARMS, the Current Case Number would be 19-0001.   ![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/cdn.freshdesk.com/data/helpdesk/attachments/production/43377895852/original/doeC1qwMP8w9M_AwPJC-E0MyAWbu70twjw.png?1670423585) Figure 2 Number Formatting -
