True or False: The serial override number allows multiple UD-10s to be included under several serial numbers.

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only under special conditions

  4. Only for police reports

The correct answer is: False

The statement is false because the serial override number is typically used to ensure that each UD-10 (Universal Crime Report form) can be uniquely identified by its own serial number. The intent of the serial override number is to maintain the integrity and individuality of each report, thereby preventing multiple UD-10s from being included under several serial numbers. When reports are processed, each UD-10 should be linked specifically to its unique serial number to avoid confusion and ensure accurate record-keeping. Hence, allowing multiple UD-10s under several serial numbers would compromise this system and is not supported by standard reporting practices.
