Frequently Asked Questions

LightBulbThese FAQs are "all-inclusive," meaning they include all transactions, regardless of your location type. If you see a transaction mentioned here which is not on your version of mySelect, that's because your location is not authorized to process same.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ1 - Why can't I void a title?

You cannot void a title until after you have voided the related registration transaction.

Also, if you recall the transaction and see a Host Error and the Void button is disabled, click the Verify button.  Verify causes the backend system to be checked for the ability to Void.  If after the check, a void is allowed, the Void button is enabled.

Void_Verify

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ2 - Why can't I add a note to a vehicle?

In order to add a Note to a vehicle, your vehicle-related Keys must be populated; i.e., Title number, VIN, Plate Number, and Plate.

Perform a Vehicle Inquiry first, then all required Keys will be populated.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ3 - Can't Connect to mySelect

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ5 - Why don't I see a function in my mySelect which is referenced in this help system?

If you are not seeing a function in your version of mySelect which you see in this online help system or on another user's system, it could be one of two things:

1.The role in which you perform is not authorized to process the function.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ10 - Why can't I recall another teller's transactions?

The ability to recall another teller's transactions is limited to specific Roles assigned that capability, such as Manager and Lead Teller.

However, all tellers, regardless of security privileges, can recall "test initiated" transactions using the Direct command line (L=Log#).  These include:

Driver License Issue (DCISS0) with message containing "TESTS INITIATED," and

Dealer/Salesperson Qualification (DESLSC) with message "E0352 SEND CUSTOMER TO TAKE QUALIFICATION TEST"

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ11 - Why am I seeing NO COMPLIANCE UPDATE PERFORMED?

When navigating through the Order section (COMP screens) of the Compliance workflow, you must click the Process Button_Process button BEFORE clicking the Next Order Button_NextOrder button in order to save any requirements or fee information you entered.  If you do not do this, the system does not save the information you entered and when you get to the end it displays a message saying NO COMPLIANCE UPDATE PERFORMED.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ12 - Why is my Void button disabled?

The Void button might be disabled for one of two reasons:

1.Host Error - The transaction got hung up in the backend system.  This would be indicated by a Host Error message next to the Log # and the Void button being disabled.  In this case, click the Verify button and see if the Void button is enabled.

Void_Verify

2.Security privileges - The ability to void a transaction is controlled by security privileges, with the exception of test transactions in a "test initiated" status, which all tellers can void.  In order to void a transaction you may need to call your Lead Teller or manager.

 

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ13 - Why do fees keep coming up $0?

Keywords:  $0.00 "no money"

If you are processing a driver's license issue and the fees keep coming up $0.00, you must be sure to select Blank in the Test Information section, then click the Process Button_Process button.   Selecting Record will not process the transaction to the backend system, which is required to generate a fee transaction.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ14:  Why am I getting "Transaction is already processed, please clear and display transaction again?"

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ15: Getting error "Select Direct Command for data grid"

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ18:  Why does the system clear my keys and give me a Qflow error sometimes when starting a transaction, selecting a Quick Nav function or after sending the customer to the camera for a Driver License issue or ID Card?

Always start every customer on the Console and click on Qdata before sending the customer to the camera or performing any transaction.

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ19: Why don’t I have the option to put a Compliance Summary in the cart?

Toggle_ExpandedFAQ25: Why am I unable to recall some Driver License transactions after they complete their test?
