Creating a new EMTA

This needs to be agreed with a NHM and Landlord services manager.

To create an EMTA you need to:

• Do not progress until void completed however request that the key safe remains after handback.
• Check that the addresses you have chosen has a suitable fitting for an electric cooker.
• Amend void status to EMTA.
• Update property elements to add in the EMTA property element with attribute value = Y.  to do this, go into Property Details and click on Create
  
  
  then Assign Element to Property.
  
  Under Element choose EMTA and under Attribute choose Y then Save.  This will mean that the EMTA will come up in a search of that property element (see search for an EMTA)
  
  
  Remember to end the Property Element if the property ceases to be an EMTA.
  
• Arrange for a key safe to be fitted if not already done.
• If using OCN for blinds, furniture and carpetting email OCN [email protected] and ask them for a quote for fitting carpets (if needed - not always the case) and roller blinds giving them the key safe code. 
• Once you have a quote you can place a PO to have these fitted.  They are set up on the system.  Don't arrange for the furniture to be delivered before you have confirmation that carpets have been fitted.
