Aladtec Integrates with Emergency Reporting

Aladtec can be easily integrated with Emergency Reporting (ER). With the Emergency Reporting integration, Aladtec will automatically feed schedule information to Emergency Reporting Daily Rosters, eliminating the time-consuming and error-prone task of duplicating schedule data.

After the Emergency Reporting integration is enabled, Aladtec will seamlessly create and update Emergency Reporting Daily Rosters with Aladtec scheduling information. Every fifteen minutes, Aladtec will ensure the scheduling information from yesterday, today, and up to five days in the future is in sync with Emergency Reporting’s daily roster information, including any changes to Aladtec schedules, such as trades, time off, and sign ups.

Enabling the Emergency Reporting integration is easy. First, contact Aladtec support (integrations@aladtec.com or 888.749.5550) to activate the Emergency Reporting integration. Then, create a new user in Emergency Reporting. In Aladtec – Setup – Integrations, after enabling, enter the credentials and authenticate, as shown below.

Enter credentials

Once the Emergency Reporting credentials are authenticated, Aladtec will automatically retrieve Emergency Reporting data, including all users, stations, apparatus, and positions. After the data is retrieved, to sync data to Emergency Reporting, match Aladtec data to Emergency Reporting data as described below.

Aladtec Members will be automatically matched to Emergency Reporting Users, if possible. For any Aladtec Member that does not match an Emergency Reporting User automatically, select the correct Emergency Reporting User from the provided list, as shown below.

Match to ER User

Similar to matching Aladtec Members to Emergency Reporting Users, match an Aladtec Schedule to one or more Emergency Reporting Station – Apparatus pairs. See below for an example.

Match to ER Station/Apparatus

Each Aladtec Position can be matched to one Emergency Reporting Position. Matching positions is optional. In the example below, Aladtec Positions have been matched to Emergency Reporting Positions.

Match to ER Position

Emergency Reporting Daily Rosters will be created based on the number of days to be fed and the Daily Split Time. The number of days to be fed includes yesterday, today, and up to five days in the future. The Daily Split time defines the time each day starts/ends in the Emergency Reporting Daily Roster. Select the number of days to feed in the future and the Daily Split Time, as shown in the example below.

After the Aladtec to Emergency Reporting matching has been completed and the Daily Split Time is selected, save the matches and start the integration, see below. Options to temporarily stop the integration or permanently disable the integration are provided as well.
