This article on E911 Management provides a comprehensive and easy-to-follow alternative to the help topic below..
On a regular basis your company must send files with up-to-date E911 information to the applicable E911 Providers. The IDI platform provides tools for generating E911 export files and managing individual batch records.
You can:
Create a file for one specific E911 Provider using the E911 File Generation Wizard
The wizard also supports managing individual batch records.
Create files for all E911 Providers at the same time.
Use an automated scheduled job to create files for E911 providers.
In either case, the update file is placed on the main server in the eFrameNet / Environments / environmentName / environmentName_BackgroundProcesses / E911 Export folder.
Only approved records in the file will be sent to the applicable E911 provider. E911 files generated via scheduled job also have their records automatically approved.
If you require manual approval of batch records, this can be done as part of the file generation process when you use the E911 File Generation wizard. Records are added to the batch with a status of Not Ready. This means the record has not been approved and will not be sent. These records must be marked as approved by having their status changed to Unsent. This can be done with one command for an entire batch or for individually selected records within a batch.
Records in a batch that remain in Not Ready status can be approved and sent at a later time.
Note
E911 File generation requires the E911 Batch Export permission.
