Entering NERIS Incidents

Follow these instructions to learn how to enter NERIS incidents from Fire Station's online platform. NERIS incidents are entered into Fire Station as call records. Then the NERIS call record is validated with NERIS and submitted to create the call in NERIS. Calls that have been submitted to NERIS then updated in Fire Station may be re-submitted to NERIS to update the call in NERIS.

You can enter a NERIS incident for an existing NFIRS or Quick Call that was entered using Fire Station Desktop. When you enter a NERIS call for an existing NFIRS or Quick Call, the call is treated as a NERIS call in the online platform and will use NERIS data for that call in reports. However, when viewing the same call in Fire Station Desktop, it will still appear as a NFIRS or Quick Call. Reports run from Fire Station Desktop will see the call as an NFIRS or Quick Call as well. In this way you can try out NERIS using the online Fire Station platform using the same call list as your live NFIRS and Quick Calls, while being able to switch between NFIRS/Quick Calls and NERIS by switching between Fire Station Desktop and the Fire Station online platform.

You must complete the initial NERIS setup by connecting Fire Station to your NERIS department before you can enter NERIS calls.

Your FSSID must have the NERIS Incident Reporting permission to follow these instructions.
