PBA Genealogy will allow the user to designate the parent-child relationships for all parcels that are added to the parcel database through parcel splits and consolidations. In the case of a parcel split, the system will support a single parent and multiple children situation. In the case of a parcel consolidation, the system will support multiple parents and a single child. Complex splits and consolidations that involve multiple parents and multiple children will be handled as two separate transactions.
Additional reports will be created that allow the user to select a parcel and display all parcels to which the selected parcel is a member of the parental lineage going forward, and all parcels that are members of the parental lineage of the selected parcel going backward.
PBA Genealogy allows existing documents and scanned images to be associated with a parcel or a transaction by storing the path to the target document or documents on the current computer network. If a document is associated with a transaction, it can be retrieved by searching on any of the parent or child parcels involved in the transaction. If a document is associated only with a parcel, it is attached only to the parcel itself.
PBA Genealogy stores all tabular data within Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle. As such, all data will be available to other applications throughout the enterprise at the discretion of the database administrator of SQL Server or Oracle.
