Entering Inspection and/or Pump Reports
Entering inspection reports for the first time can be tricky; however, once you have gone through the process a couple of times, you'll probably find it fairly simple. The first step that you will always go through is searching for a property. Once you have found a property you can set it up for reporting. To review the property search function, follow this link.
Note:
If you can't find the property and are working within an OnlineRME managed environment( i.e. there is a regulatory authority), please contact them directly to add it. It may be addressed differently, or not in the system at all. You'll need them to enter the property for you. If you are located in a non-OnlineRME managed county, you may enter the property on your own by following the steps within this document.
Entering Septic System Inspections (Skip to Entering Pump Reports)
Once you find (or create) the property that you are looking to report on you will need to set it up for first-time septic system reporting. To set up the property for reporting you must keep these things in mind:
Verify and update if necessary the property information (make changes when necessary)
Verify and update if necessary the contact information ( this is where the owner information goes)
Update/Add the septic system components - follow this link for instructions. You can't complete an inspection report without adding the components. An example setup for a sand filter to gravity may look like this:
Panel: Control Panel - 1 pump
Tank: Septic Tank 2 Compartment
Tank: Pump Tank
Pump: Effluent Pump (labeled "to sand filter")
Media Filter: Sand Filter
Pump Effluent Pump (labeled "to drainfield")
Drainfield: Gravity
