Exactix v4.1.39 Release - What Do I Need to Do? (Excavator)
What You Need to Do to Comply With The Change
Applies to: Facility Owners / Utility Members, Locators, and Excavators
When: When responding to an Excavator Renotification (EXRN) or Relocate/Refresh (RLRF)
What is Changing?
When an EXRN or Relocate/Refresh is generated for your Service Area:
✅ You must upload a NEW attachment with your response
🚫 Attachments from previous ticket versions do NOT carry forward
If no new attachment is uploaded, the response may be marked late, even if you posted a response code on time.
If You Submit an EXRN (Excavators)
What You Must Do
- Select the correct EXRN reason Examples:
- Inaccurate markings
- Inaccurate or missing Positive Response
- Insufficient supporting documentation
- Choose who should be notified
- Send the EXRN to the correct utility or service area
- Be specific
- The reason you select tells the utility owner exactly what needs to be corrected
✅ Clear EXRN reasons help ensure faster, more accurate responses.
If You Receive an EXRN or Relocate/Refresh (Members / Locators)
✅ What You Must Do
- Open the EXRN or RLRF ticket
- Submit a new Positive Response
- Upload a new attachment that supports that response
- Examples:
- Photos of markings
- Maps or sketches
- Updated documentation relevant to the current ticket
- Examples:
- Confirm the attachment is visible on the current response before exiting
✅ Attachments are required every time an EXRN or RLRF is received.
What Will Cause a Late Notice
- Submitting a response without a new attachment
- Assuming an attachment from the original ticket still counts
- Uploading documentation to an older ticket version
Exactix now tracks why tickets are late (no response, no attachment, or both).
What’s New in Exactix v4.1.39 (At a Glance)
- Attachments are tied to the current ticket version
- Exactix shows when no attachments are posted
- Previous attachments remain visible (read‑only, not valid)
- Late notices clearly show the reason
- More transparency for both excavators and members
Quick Checklist
Before you close an EXRN or RLRF response, ask:
✔ Did I submit a new Positive Response?
✔ Did I upload a new attachment for this ticket version?
✔ Can I see the attachment listed on the response?
If yes to all three, you are all set.
