Installation / Training:

Card scan installations must provide the scanner serial number and facility ID or (ORI) prior to installation. Card scan installations and training are normally internet based. OPM installations require SON, SOI and other relevant ID numbers. If you would like onsite training, please contact AD&S for a quote for this service.

Multiple facilities

One remote workstation can submit records on behalf of many facilities. If the agency is authorized to transmit for more than one agency/facility, please specify all Facility ID Codes or ORI and indicate which one will be the default Facility. It is very important to provide the exact Facility ID Code(s) / ORI since each record submission will charge the submitting facility identified by the Facility ID Code / ORI.
