What should you do if you receive a "no record" response from the RTS database?

When you receive a "no record" response from the RTS (Real-Time System) database, it indicates that the information you were seeking was not found in the system. In this situation, requesting a manual check is the appropriate course of action. This approach ensures that if there is critical information missing or if the person of interest could potentially have records stored elsewhere, these can be explored through additional means or resources.

A manual check may involve searching alternative databases or databases that may not be immediately referenced in the RTS system, thereby increasing the likelihood of uncovering any pertinent records. This process is essential in situations where you've encountered a "no record" response, as it maintains thoroughness and diligence in retrieving necessary information for investigations or responses.

By opting for a manual check, you demonstrate a commitment to obtaining accurate and complete information, which is vital in many professional contexts, especially those that rely heavily on data integrity and accurate reporting.
