TOPIC: Integrating RecallChek

Why not use HIP? If you want to add the additional text you can, just remove it from the form before you upload to recallchek.

I do it that way because I can copy/paste faster than selecting and removing.  Also, I transmit serial numbers as well.  Although RC doesn't use them, as such, they include them in their report to the client because it is useful information for those items that are identified as "possible recalls".  I also need to be able to process more than 10 items.

What about multiple appliances of the same type, such as HVAC equipment.  For instance, many times there are two HVAC systems.  So, in my heating section, I would need two recallchek blocks.  Will that work?  How?  Thanks.

For RecallChek you have to treat each HVAC item separately.  So if you have two split heat pump systems, each compressor and each air handler would be listed separately (total of four items).  To further complicate matters, if they are split AC systems with a gas furnace you could be reporting two compressors, two evaporator sections and two furnaces, or a total of 6, although some people probably would not report the info for the evaporators in that case.

Eric, most of the time guys will duplicate the entire page via edit template if there's two HVAC systems. If you're not doing this you could create a 2nd tab and map that one or just add it into the HIP RecallChek page manually.

This is the best way I have found that works. I have setup a page in my report just for appliance numbers. It is real easy to set up the RecallChek template this way.
