The Nlets IFTA Transaction How is it used? How does it work? Nlets & IFTA
How is it used? • The purpose of the Nlets IFTA transaction is to provide a resource that enables access to real-time data for criminal justice purposes to Nlets members responsible for roadside enforce-ment of fuel tax laws. Nlets & IFTA
How does it work? Inquiry: FQC Response: FRC • The FQC will search the IFTA database and return an FRC message with exact matches based upon the Federal Identification Number (FEI). • The FQC requires: • Valid, 9-character, sending ORI • 2-character destination ORI (‘FT’) • FEI • The response (FRC) will include: • IFTA number • Organization name • Jurisdiction • Contact number • Status • Nlets supports this transaction in legacy text, as well as in XML. • Participating states include Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Nlets & IFTA
The Nlets PRISM Transaction How is it used? How does it work? Nlets & IFTA
How is it used? • In addition to the Nlets vehicle queries already available, PRISM provides inquiry ability to access the SAFER-PRISM database. Nlets & IFTA
How does it work? Inquiry: ACQ Response: AVQ • The inquiry for a Carrier Status Request by USDOT Number and a Vehicle Status Request for targeted information is by: • VIN; or, • License plate & State. • With an exception of the data field headings and depending on the MCSIP Steps, all Nlets Carrier Status Response messages provide the same data elements: • If the carrier is targeted; • If the carrier is under Federal OOSO; and, • If the carrier registration is suspended or revoked. • Vehicle Status Responses will return the carrier data for the carrier responsible for safety, but only when there has been a carrier designated. • It is important to note that information obtained via Nlets is not updated in real-time. This means persons running the transaction should also confirm if an OOSO is still in effect. • Nlets is currently working with PRISM to provide real-time access to data. Nlets & IFTA
