  1. The admin will run a weekly report to determine if there are outstanding violations in the system that have passed the 15 day mark. This would be done using the 'Vehicle Lookup Export' in OPS-COM. To get to the Vehicle Lookup Export go to the Violations Menu and hover over Collections. Click Vehicle Lookup Export.
  2. The Vehicle Lookup Export Tool opens. In our example the search parameters are:
     - Minimum Number of violations
     - Vehicle Province or State
     - Issue date or by due date
     - Date range of the lookup

  3. This search returns 3 results. To generate the required report click on Send For Lookup (MTO).



  4. A text file will be generated with the filename as SentToMTO-XX-XX-XX.txt where the X's are the date stamp (ie: SendToMTO-18-01-30.txt)
  5. Here is a small sample of what the text file will look like. Do not worry if it looks unformated or foreign. The file is set up in a custom format for MTO.

  6. The file that is returned from MTO Lookup will include Driver information such as the registered vehicle owner's name and address. This information is stored temporarily in OPS-COM and is governed by ARIS rules.  The returned document will look like the following:

  7. |To import this information into OPS-COM, click on the Violations Menu, hover over Collections and click on Vehicle Lookup Import.

  8. The Vehicle Lookup Import file selector tool opens. Choose the file that came back from MTO and navigate to the file you wish to select for import.

  9. Click Import. The following confirmation screen will appear.

  10. Once the information is imported, this information will be used to automatically populate the Notices of Impending Conviction. Go to the Letter Report to see all your Tickets have information from MTO.  Print the appropriate letters and mail them to the drivers.

  11. If the ticket still remains unpaid for 65 days. It could be sent to the Ontario Court for collection. To do so, Click Violations tab, hover over Collections and click on Send to Court.

  12. In the resulting Court Requested Conviction Export screen, select Court Requested Conviction Fee to add the court fee to the violation. Some municipalities will have a fee and some may not. For information about setting up your Admin Fees, click there.

  13. The system will generate a report in text format that would be sent to the Ontario Court.  This file is in a specific court approved format and must be customized for each municipality.  

  14. When you look one of these violations that was sent to court you will see that the CRC fee has been added.


  15. Now we will assume we have gotten back a report for the Ontario Court that this ticket is paid. We need to flag them in the system as paid. You run this report under the Collections menu as well. Choose "Flag as Paid by Court". 

  16. Pick your date range and click Search. My ticket 7/1906 is shown. See example below:



  17.  Click Flag as paid and the violation record will show the item as processed in the user's profile.



  18. Additionally, when you look at the vehicle information for this violation, the MTO information will have been purged from the system. Note the vehicle shows No Associated Drivers.
