NERIS Management Module Setup
Overview
This guide describes how to configure the Management module for NERIS.
Disclaimer
NERIS is currently under development by the Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI). This guide reflects the system as implemented in EPR FireWorks. Functionality may evolve as NERIS continues development toward full national implementation by January 2026.
Prerequisites
Before configuring the Management module, please verify that you have:
- Completed NERIS Website Integration
- Your client ID entered on the NERIS website
- NERIS tabs enabled by FireWorks team
- Administrator access to the Back-Office
Register Your Stations with NERIS
Your stations need unique NERIS IDs to communicate with the NERIS system.
In the Back-Office, navigate to Management > Department Settings > Stations
.
For each station, click Register on the right. If the connection with NERIS was successful, the station’s NERIS ID will appear in the NERIS ID
column.
Creating NERIS User Profiles
After registering your stations with NERIS, you need to create permission profiles for NERIS users. These permission profiles define which users can perform certain actions within the NERIS module, such as creating incidents, modifying reports, and managing NERIS settings.
Navigate to Staff Settings > User Profiles
.
Double-click an existing profile (or create a new one).
Select the Incidents
tab.
Double-click the Incident Profile (NERIS)
field on the right.
Double-click the desired Incident
profile.
Check the boxes for permissions you want to grant.
- Click Exit on all windows when finished.
