Configuring for the OSS-SRN Express Portal
This topic describes how to configure OSS-ESPA to support the OSS-SRN Express Portal.
NOTE: To configure the OSS-SRN Express Portal access and settings you must be an administrator.
This feature requires option E16 Email interface. If you do not have this feature is not available.
To support the OSS-SRN Express Portal you must:

Configure whether or not you want to allow X-Case queries to be performed on your OSS-ESPA cases. The X-Case query is a powerful query that allows OSS-SRN Express Portal users to search for data on your OSS-ESPA account. They can search for phone numbers, person names, case names, vehicle license names and addresses. Refer to How to configure the X-Case query and the X-Case analysis for further information.
-
Configure whether or not you want to include the X-Case analysis in the IQ packet report's Target Summary and Frequent numbers sections. This analysis cross references a case's target phone numbers and all the associated phone numbers in the CDRs with all cases in the OSS-ESPA account. Refer to How to configure the X-Case query and the X-Case analysis for further information.
-
Configure how maps are displayed in the IQ packet reports, such as with or not the sectors are open, as described in How to configure the IQ packet map and public record settings.
