The Missing Sequence feature automatically detects missing tickets on a daily basis (tickets not received throughout the day) and lists them on the Missing Sequence page (and on the Alert Summary page). In order to use this feature, each one call center must:
- Send sequences of tickets by registration code
- Each ticket must have a unique sequence number to indicate the its place in the sequence sent by the one call center. Example: 3 is the third ticket sent on Tuesday from the one call center named MASDIG
- Each registration code's sequence resets at 1 each day (each day, the first ticket from a registration code has a sequence number of 1)
When a sequence number is detected missing, it appears in the Missing Sequence Summary and an alert will be displayed for the user. This will be an indicator to contact the One Call Center and request the missing sequence to be resent to your company.
Example: A one call center sends the its first sequence of tickets on Tuesday (sequence numbers 1-36), then a few hours later sends its next set (sequence numbers 40-53). Missing sequence numbers 37, 38, and 39 appear on the Missing Sequence page
On the Missing Sequence Number Summary page, these are the columns used to list the missing sequence numbers:
Field | Description |
Center | The one call center that sent the sequence |
Code | The registration code of the one call center that sent the sequence |
Sequence | In the sequence (list of tickets), the number of the ticket that was not received |
Status | One call center contacted: You contacted the one call center about the missing ticket via non-UtiliSphere means (phone, email, fax, etc) Disregard: You ignored the missing ticket (did not contact the one call center) Not Received: You did not receive the ticket |
Detected | The date/time the ticket was detected as missing |
Do not change a status to One call center contacted until after you have contacted the one call center. Changing the status does not cause the system to contact the one call center.
- On the top menu bar, click System Management ( ) > Communication > One Call > Missing Sequence
- On the Missing Sequence Numbers Summary page, in the Sequence column, identify the sequence number of the missing ticket you want to process
- In the check box column, click the check box of the sequence number you want to process
In the upper right corner, in the Status list, change the status to indicate the action you took. Status changes do not cause system actions.
Status Description Disregard You disregarded the missing ticket (did not contact the one call center) One call center contacted You contacted the one call center about the missing ticket [via non-UtiliSphere means (phone, email, fax, etc) is this needed?] Result: The missing sequence numbers disappear. To see them, filter by status
Each One Call Center sends tickets on its own schedule. Use Refresh to check for new missing tickets in a sequence [not true? It seems to just reload the results of the current filter].
- To see if a new missing sequence number of a missing ticket is available, click Refresh. Result: The new missing sequence number appears, if available
These are the default settings for the filter:
Filter | Default |
Detected Date | Missing sequence numbers that were detected in the last 30 days (including today) |
Registration Code | Missing sequence numbers for any registration code |
Status | Not received: You did not receive the ticket |
If you arrive at Missing Sequences from Messages ( ), you will only see unprocessed sequences and Last Filter, which reloads whatever sequences the last filter setting retrieves (either the default or custom settings)
- On the Missing Sequence Numbers Summary page, in the upper left corner, click Filter
On the Filter Missing Sequence Numbers page, in the Options column, choose the filter and make your changes:
Filter Description Detected Date The date the ticket was detected missing by the system. Default: Missing sequence numbers that were detected in the last 30 days (including today) Registration Code The registration code on the ticket: Missing sequence numbers for any registration code Status - Disregard: You disregarded the missing ticket (did not contact the one call center)
