Document Hub Overview The Document Hub is a centralized location in Wastebits where you can view, search, filter, and manage all documents across your portal, including files attached to Waste Streams, Manifests, Forms, Sites, and Companies, as well as portal-wide shared library documents. Documents can be renamed for easier identification and more effective search filtering, see Document Actions below. Access the Document Hub by clicking Documents in the left-side navigation menu. 1. Tabs Overview The Document Hub is organized into four tabs: All Documents - A complete view of every document you have permission to see across all entities in your portal Shared Library - Portal-wide documents not tied to any specific record (safety manuals, SOPs, contracts, pricing sheets, etc.) Browse - Navigate documents using a folder-style tree organized by entity type Recently Viewed - Quick access to documents you have recently downloaded or viewed source 2. All Documents Tab The All Documents tab displays every document in your portal in a card grid view. Each document card shows: File name and type Entity the document is attached to (e.g., Waste Stream, Manifest, Company) File size Upload date Scope badge (Public, Library, Billing, Scan, Private) Any tags applied to the document Searching and Filtering Use the filter bar at the top of the page to narrow results: Search - Filter by file name keyword Entity - Filter by entity type (Waste Stream, Manifest, Form, Site, Company) File - Filter by file extension (PDF, DOCX, PNG, etc.) Date Range - Filter by upload date Tags - Filter by any tag applied to a document Document Actions From the (...) menu on any document card, you can download the file, rename the document's display name, or navigate directly to the record it is attached to.

Password Policy Configuration by Portal - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/198059 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/198059 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2026-09-03 New Feature Alert! Password Policy Configuration by Portal Overview Wastebits now allows configuration to password requirements on a portal level. Instead of a single platform-wide default, each portal can now set its own rules for password length, complexity, expiration, and reuse, giving portal owners control over the security posture of their own users. 1. Accessing Password Policy Settings Portal administrators can find these settings by clicking their company name in the bottom left of the navigation bar, then selecting Security within the Details tab. This panel lets an admin define the requirements new and existing passwords must meet within their portal. 2. Setting Password Length Two fields control how long a password must be: Minimum Length - the fewest characters a password may contain (default: 8). Maximum Length - the most characters a password may contain (default: 128). 3. Character Requirements Admins can toggle on any combination of the following rules. When enabled, a password must include: At least 1 uppercase letter At least 1 lowercase letter At least 1 number At least 1 special character Note: Wastebits' platform default only requires an uppercase letter and a special character. 4. Additional Checks Beyond character composition, admins can enable two extra safeguards: Block commonly used passwords - rejects passwords that appear on known weak/breached password lists. Block passwords containing the user's name or email - prevents users from choosing a password that's easy to guess based on their own account details. 5. Password History The Password History field sets how many previous passwords a user may not reuse. Setting this to 0 disables history checking entirely, allowing a user to reuse an old password. 6. Password Expiration The Password Expiration (days) field determines how often users must change their password. Leaving this field blank means passwords never expire. 7. Handling Existing Non-Compliant Users If an admin tightens the password policy after users already have accounts, some existing passwords may no longer meet the new rules. The "If existing users no longer comply" dropdown determines what happens to those users: Leave non-compliant users as-is - no action is taken; existing passwords remain valid until the user changes them on their own. Force a password reset at next login - non-compliant users are required to set a new, compliant password the next time they log in. Warn users, but don't force a reset - non-compliant users are notified that their password doesn't meet the current policy, but are not blocked from logging in until they choose to update it. Note: This setting only affects users whose current password no longer meets the policy. It does not apply to new passwords going forward, which are always validated against the active rules. 8.

Two-Factor Authentication - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/197934 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/197934 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2026-08-04 New Feature Alert! Two-Factor Authentication Overview Wastebits now supports Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) to add an extra layer of security to your account. When enabled, you will be required to verify your identity during sign-in, in addition to your password. 2FA is configured at one of two levels: it is either enabled for the entire portal, applying to all users automatically, or it is left to each individual user to enable on their own account. 1. Accessing Two-Factor Authentication Settings Click your name in the top right corner of the application. Select Your Account from the dropdown menu. Navigate to the Two-Factor Authentication tab. 2. Portal-Level Enforcement When 2FA is required at the portal level, every user in the portal will receive an email notification informing them that two-factor authentication has been enabled for their account. The email will explain that starting at their next sign-in, they will need to verify their identity with a code sent to their email address. It also includes a Manage MFA Settings button that links directly to their Two-Factor Authentication account settings, where they can switch to an authenticator app if preferred. Note: If the button in the email is not working, copy and paste the link provided in the email directly into your browser. Users should complete their 2FA setup promptly to avoid any disruption to their access. By default, email verification will be active, no action is required if email codes are your preferred method. 3. Verification Methods There are two ways to verify your identity when signing in. Email A one-time code is sent to the email address associated with your account. This method is active by default and requires no additional setup. Authenticator App Generate verification codes using an app like Google Authenticator or Authy. This method is more secure than email and is recommended for users who want stronger account protection. To set up an Authenticator App: Click Set Up Authenticator App. Follow the on-screen instructions to link your authenticator app by scanning the provided QR code. Enter the confirmation code from your app to complete setup. 4. Backup Codes Backup codes allow you to access your account if you lose access to your primary verification method (for example, if you lose your phone). A set of backup codes is generated for your account and can be used in place of your normal verification code. Click Regenerate to create a new set of backup codes. Store your backup codes somewhere safe. Each code can only be used once. Important: If you see 0 remaining backup codes, click Regenerate to create a new set before you need them. 5. Require MFA at Every Login For the strongest protection, you can turn on Require MFA at Every Login. When enabled, you will be prompted to verify your identity every time you sign in, without exception. To enable this on your own account, click Turn On next to the Require MFA at Every Login option. If MFA has been enabled at the portal level, this setting will display as Enforced and cannot be turned off by individual users. This ensures all users in the portal meet the same security requirement. 6. Who Can Help?

Address Geocoding - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/197930 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/197930 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2026-07-27 New Feature Alert! Address Geocoding Overview Wastebits now uses address geocoding to help you enter accurate, validated addresses across the platform. As you type a street address, the system will suggest matching addresses in real time, reducing manual entry errors and ensuring address data is standardized. Address geocoding is available on all records that have Companies and Sites records wherever a physical address is entered. How It Works When entering a physical address, begin typing the street number and street name in the Street Number field. A dropdown list of suggested matching addresses will appear beneath the street fields. Select the correct address from the list, and the remaining fields: State, County, and Postal Code, will automatically populate. Overriding a Suggestion or Entering an Address Manually If the correct address does not appear in the suggestions, or if you need to enter an address that is not recognized by the geocoding service, you can bypass the suggestions entirely. Simply continue typing past the dropdown and fill in all address fields manually. The geocoding suggestion is a helper tool; it is never required, and you are always able to enter or edit address information directly. Where This Applies Address geocoding is active on the physical address fields for: Companies Sites Who Can Help?

URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83055 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83055 - Category: Users - Updated: 2026-04-10 The Wastebits chatbot can answer specific questions about what each Wastebits user role is allowed to do, restricted from doing, and when each role should be assigned. Wastebits uses role-based access controls to manage what users can see and do within the platform. Available roles depend on the company type, such as Facility, Generator, Transporter, or Service Provider, and each role has a defined set of permissions based on that user’s responsibilities. The Wastebits chatbot on wastebits.com can now help answer detailed questions about those roles and permissions. Instead of manually reviewing role definitions and permission tables, users can ask direct questions about what a role can access, which actions it can perform, and where its permissions stop. This is especially useful when setting up new users, reviewing access, or deciding which role should be assigned to a specific person. For example, a user can ask whether a Site Admin can manage users, whether a Site Approver can approve waste streams, or what the difference is between a Portal Admin and a Company Admin. Wastebits offers several role types across the platform, including: Portal Admin: top-level access for managing company-wide settings and users Company Admin: access to manage users and company details within their company Site Admin: access to manage users and site details for assigned sites Site Approver, Site Operator, Site Uploader, and Site Read-Only roles: facility-focused roles with different levels of access to waste streams, manifests, scale tickets, and related workflows Generator and Service Provider user roles: roles tailored to the tasks those companies perform in Wastebits Because permissions vary by role and company type, the chatbot works best when the question is specific. For example: What can a Portal Admin do in Wastebits? What is the difference between a Company Admin and a Site Admin? Can a Site Approver approve manifests? What can a Site Operator do at a Facility? Can a Site Uploader edit waste streams? What permissions does a Generator user have? What can a Service Provider user do for client sites? Which user role should I assign if someone only needs view access? Admins can create users and assign roles based on the level of access they already have. Wastebits also supports custom permission settings, which gives administrators more control over what users are allowed to do within the system. The chatbot is designed to make these answers easier to find. When you need to confirm what a role can do, what it cannot do, or which role is the best fit for a user, start by asking the Wastebits chatbot a direct question. ## How to Use the Wastebits Chatbot for API Questions - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83053 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83053 - Category: API - Updated: 2026-04-10 The Wastebits chatbot on wastebits.com can help answer specific questions about API authentication, endpoints, payloads, templates, manifests, and event subscriptions so you can find what you need faster. If you are working with the Wastebits API and need a quick answer, the Wastebits chatbot on wastebits.com can help you get there faster (look for the circle icon in the bottom right corner of the page). Instead of searching through multiple sections of technical documentation, you can ask a direct question in plain language and get guidance based on the API documentation used to train the chatbot. You can also use the chatbot to ask questions about specific Wastebits objects and workflows. It can help you understand how companies and sites are structured, what fields are available on a user, how site restrictions work, how waste stream templates affect the shape of the data object, or how event subscriptions can be configured to send near real-time notifications to an external URL. This can reduce the time it takes to move from a question to an implementation decision. Examples of questions you can ask the chatbot include: How do I authenticate with the Wastebits API? How do I create a Bearer token? How long does a Wastebits token last? How do I check whether my token is still valid? How do I list companies in the Wastebits API? How do I create a site under a company? What roles can I assign to a user? How do I restrict a user to specific sites? How do I create a waste stream? How do templates affect the waste stream data object? How do I get the JSON schema for a template? What statuses are available on a manifest? How do I create an event subscription? What events can I subscribe to? What does the event notification payload look like? The chatbot works best when your question is specific. Instead of asking a broad question like “How does the API work?”, try asking something more direct, such as “How do I create a token?”, “Which fields are required to create a site?”, or “How do wildcard event subscriptions work?” Specific questions will usually return more useful answers. Using the Wastebits chatbot can save time during setup, troubleshooting, and day-to-day development. It gives you a faster way to find targeted API guidance without manually reviewing the full documentation each time. When you need a quick answer about Wastebits API usage, the chatbot is a good place to start. ## v10.11.0 Core Application Updates - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83051 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83051 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2026-04-08 v10.11.0 Core Application Updates Fix permission bug issues for Outbound Approver roles Core customer - New forms release ## v10.10.1 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83049 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83049 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2026-04-08 v10.10.1 Core Application Updates Core customer - Report updates ## v10.10.0 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83047 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83047 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2026-04-08 v10.10.0 Core Application Updates Templates - Form data model properties refractor Core customer - New report buildout Bug fix - Unable to create a new portal user within the WEM environment Core customer - Waste Stream template and form updates Core customer - Form updates ## v10.8.1 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83045 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83045 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2026-04-08 v10.8.1 Core Application Updates Core customer program revamp ## v10.9.0 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83043 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/83043 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2026-04-08 v10.9.0 Core Application Updates Tag Management Feature Enhancements ## New Feature Alert! Tag Management Page - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/82172 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/82172 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2026-03-04 Overview The Tags page in Wastebits allows users to take full control of their tag management. Users can now view, manage, edit, deactivate, merge, and organize tags that have been applied across items, records, and cards within the Wastebits platform. Tags help you organize, categorize, and filter data efficiently, making it easier to locate and group related items. This document outlines the layout, functionality, and best practices for using the Tags page. 1. What Are Tags? Tags are custom labels that users apply to items or data in the Wastebits application to: Categorize similar items Enhance searchability Enable filtered views Support reporting and analysis Tags are displayed with color indicators and descriptive text for quick visual identification. 2. Accessing the Tags Page Log into your Wastebits portal. Navigate to Tags via the main menu sidebar. The Tags page displays all tags currently available in your system. Note: You must have the appropriate permissions to view or manage tags. Currently, tag management is only available to internal facility users. 3. Tags List: Page Layout The Tags list includes the following columns: ID - Wastebits unique identifier Tag Name - The text label given to the tag (e.g., Hazardous, Approved, Urgent) Color - A visual color assigned to the tag, utilizing the hexadecimal color palette to ensure consistent colors across the platform Status - Indicates whether the tag is Active or InactiveActive = Available for use Inactive = Not available for new entities Type - Identifies which area of the application the tag applies to (Waste Stream, Manifest, Form, Company, Site) Item Count - Number of items/cards currently using the tag Created At - When the tag was created Updated At - Most recent update to the tag Filters Search - Filter by Tag Name Statuses - Active, Inactive, All Statuses All Types - Filter by card type (Waste Stream, Manifest, Form, Company, Site) 4. Tag Details Clicking into a tag displays: Details — All fields listed in Section 3 Entity List — A list of all cards currently associated with the tag History — Audit trail showing when the tag was created, modified, deactivated, merged, and by whom 5. Actions You Can Take Add a New Tag Click Create New Tag (or the + icon) from the Tags page or within a specific card. Select the Type of tag (Waste Stream, Manifest, Form, Company, Site). Enter a descriptive Tag Name. Select a Color using the color palette or hexadecimal value. Click Save. Edit an Existing Tag From the Tags list, click on the tag you want to edit. Select Edit Tag in the top right corner. Update the name or color. Click Save. 6. Deactivating & Reactivating Tags Deactivate a Tag Click into the tag you would like to deactivate. Open the Actions dropdown menu. Select Deactivate Tag. Enter a reason for deactivation (for audit history purposes). Click Deactivate. Important: Deactivated tags will remain visible on entities where they are already applied. Deactivated tags cannot be applied to new entities. Reactivate a Tag Filter for Inactive tags. Locate the tag. Open the Actions dropdown. Select Activate Tag. Provide a reason for reactivation. 7. Merging Tags Merging allows you to consolidate duplicate or similar tags. To Merge a Tag: Click into the tag you want to merge from (the source tag). Open the Actions dropdown. Select Merge Tag. Select the Destination Tag (must be the same Type: Company, Site, Waste Stream, Manifest, or Form). Provide a reason for the merge (for audit history). Confirm the merge. What Happens During a Merge: All entities associated with the source tag will automatically acquire the destination tag. The source tag will be permanently deleted. The action is recorded in History. This action is permanent and cannot be undone. 8. Using Tags in Lists & Filters Tags appear on item detail cards and list views once applied. Users can filter lists by selecting one or more tags. Multiple tag filters may combine using AND/OR logic depending on the interface. 9. Best Practices for Tagging Use consistent naming (e.g., Hazardous Waste vs. HazWaste) Use meaningful colors to visually distinguish categories Avoid duplicate tags — merge when necessary Deactivate rather than delete if historical visibility is important Document tag naming conventions internally 10. Troubleshooting & Tips Why don’t I see any tags? You may not have permission. No tags have been created yet. The tag may be inactive. The tag may have been merged into another tag. Tags aren’t filtering my list Confirm the tag is applied to the item. Check that the tag is Active. Verify filter combinations are correct. 11. Who Can Help?

The Wastebits Locator is designed to make your facilities and services easy for customers to find. To keep your listings accurate, you may receive a Google Sheet from our team with all locations currently on file. You can edit this sheet directly to update addresses, contacts, services, or other details. If you have multiple locations and haven’t received a spreadsheet yet, you can contact us and we’ll generate one for you. Once updated, our team will review your changes and apply them to the Locator. Starting from Scratch If you don't yet have any locations within the locator, start by filling out this form. The rest of these instrucitons will assume you have locations in our locator, and we've given you a spreadsheet to edit. Updating a Single Location If you only need to update a single location, the simplest method is to go to that location on the web, and in the footer there is a link titled "Request Edit for this Page". This will open a form that will have the URL pre-filled in and our support team can quickly make those one-off adjustments. For a mass-edit, the rest of these instructions apply. Company Details In the spreadsheet, there will be a tab for "Company Details", these fields are shown on your company detail page (that links out to all of your locations), and includes the following fields: URL Slug - the part of the URL that comes after `https://locator.wastebits.com/company/` Title - what is displayed at the top of the page Address Fields - street, city, latitude, etc. This is for your company's headquarters. Phone & Fax - company-level phone number and fax (optional) Description - A short description of the company (1-3 paragraphs) Inherited Fields Some of these fields can be used to provide information within each location's listing. For example, if you put a phone number at the company level, but leave the phone number blank for a location, it will inherit the company's phone number. However, if an individual location is given a phone number, it will be shown instead of the company phone number. The rule of thumb is: a location's information takes precedent, but company information will be used if a location's info is blank. The following are company fields that will be shown in a location if none are provided for the individual location: Phone Fax Email Url Description Location Details The spreadsheet will include a tab with all of the location details listed one per row. I won't go into every column here, as some are self-explanitory (like city and state), but there are some notes for particular fields: Entry ID - Leave these as-is. They are used to reference an existing entry in our system. If you need us to add more locations than are listed, add them to the spreadsheet and leave "Entry ID" blank, we'll create new ones then. URL Slug - While this can be edited, it is advised to leave them as-is so search engines don't get confused with the existing URL structure. Parent Company - Leave as-is, these map to how our system sees your company name. Location Category - This is a predefined set of location categories that we have, these are the options:Landfill Full-Service Waste Removal Dumpsters & Containers Transporter Recycler Transfer Facility Waste & Environmental Services TSDF Sustainability Solution Liquid Waste Accepted Waste, Waste Not Accepted, and Services Offered - These are listings of multiple waste types and/or services. They must be separated not with a comma, but a special combination: `-|-` (without the tickmarks). So, an example for Accepted Waste would be: `municipal solid waste-|-sludge-|-tires-|-yard waste` If existing entries exist, they will already be shown like that. Latitude and Longitude: If you know these, great. If not, we have a tool that will look them all up as long as you provide the other info. Phone and Fax: We prefer the format `(555) 555-5555` for consistency. Email: This will be publicly shown on the website, although we use some basic steps to prevent bots from scraping these for spam purposes. Open Hours: Separate days (or groups of days) with a comma, like so: `M-F 7:00am-4:00pm, Sat 7am - 12:00pm` or `Monday: 7am - 4pm, Tuesday: 7am -4pm, Wednesday: Closed` etc. If You Need To Remove Entries If you need to remove entries from the listing we provide, simply let us know by providing a list of the Entry IDs you see in the spreadsheet and we'll remove them. After Making Updates Once you've updated the spreadsheet, let us know it has been updated and we'll re-import it. Note that we will still need to verify the information, look up the lat/lng, apply special formatting rules, etc. So our goal is not to have multiple edits/upload cycles, but one big update process after everything looks good from your end. ## v7.2.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56496 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56496 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-11-10 Notifications Filters and Views Notification View As an enhancement to the generic row view of notifications, we have restyled the row view to be more aesthetically pleasing, and we added an optional new table card view. Notification Sorting and Filtering Notifications can be sorted by categories and subcategories. Select the filter button on the right-hand side of your screen, and a notification type drop-down appears. This drop-down lets you drill down your search by comments, waste streams, user accounts, service agreements, system notifications, and exports. Once selected, you can drill down your filter even further if needed. Additional Notes: Notifications within the last 30-days will be displayed; this functionality has not changed. If you have filters set and navigate to another page in your portal, your filters will still be displayed if you return to this page. Searching Once you have selected your notification type, searching may be combined with filtering to get more specific results. Here is a list of searchable items by notification type: Waste Streams ID Name Billing Site Facility Site Generator Site Approval Number Waste Stream Comment Everything from Waste Streams User First and Last Name Approvals Everything from Waste Streams User First and Last Name User Company Service Agreement Broker (SP) Company Name Client Company Name User First and Last Name User Company Name User Request User First and Last Name User Company Name Company Name **TIP: Searching for a specific category and excluding criteria from your results are simple. Here is how: Simply use an "!" to exclude the data. This would look something like this "ABC Landfill !sludge". This search would render all notifications that have waste streams affiliated with the ABC Landfill, but it will exclude anything related to sludge. Fixes Users could not upload a certification when submitting a waste stream during the certification process, only in the documents section. Once the document was uploaded, the upload would show in lieu of the generated waste stream PDF. Non-approved profiles appeared as selectable when creating a non-hazardous manifest from the manifest icon. ## v3.3 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29483 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29483 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-11-10 What’s new in Wastebits This release contains: Company Info Updates Account Claiming Enhancements Editing a Non-Haz Manifest Manifest Transporter Updates Company Info Updates We’ve heard that you want to be able to add more information to Transporters and Generators at the Company level, so we made these updates: Generator Company Address Now when creating a Generator Company, you can enter: Company Address Company Telephone # Transporter Company Address & Detail Fields Now when creating a Transporter Company, you can enter: EPA ID State ID Permit # Company Address Company Telephone # All of these fields are optional, and will give you more access to track the information that you want! Account Claiming Enhancements Previously when creating an account for your customer there was no way to determine whether the account had been claimed or to resend the welcome email if the customer couldn’t find it any longer. With this update we’ve given you access to both! Ability to see whether an account has been claimed First, navigate to the user you’d like to see the status of and click on their name. If a user has not claimed their account, you’ll see a note at the top of their details: Click the Resend Welcome Email button on the screen. The user will receive another email with instructions to claim their account. Clarifying Username upon Account Claim We’ve updated the log-in page to show that the username is actually just your Email address! Editing a Non-Haz Manifest Previously when a Manifest was Marked as Prepared, this locked the manifest down and prevented any edits. This meant that if the Generator wasn’t the original manifest creator, that they couldn’t make any changes! With this update, we’ve added the ability to edit the manifest up until the Generator signs it. Manifest Transporter Updates Sometimes when a Facility Admin is completing a Manifest for their Customer, they may not know who the Transporter will be - but it was marked as a required field! With this update, a Draft Manifest can be created without a Transporter listed. Adding the Transporter isn’t required until the Generator signs! Coming Soon... Service Provider User Type Internet Explorer compatibility Transporter driver list Discrepancy Workflow And more! ## v3.4 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29523 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29523 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-11-10 What’s new in Wastebits This release contains: Service Provider Company and User Types IE Compatibility Updates to When You Can Edit Waste Streams Changes to Signatures when Uploading a Signed Manifest Service Provider Companies and Users Facility Portal Admins, Facility Site Managers, and Generator Admins will now have access to create Service Provider Companies and Users! When you authorize a Service Provider, they will have access to Create and Edit Waste Streams, Manifests, and Sites on behalf of their Generator Clients. They will only have access to the Waste Streams and Manifests that they have created or been added to. For more information about Service Providers, see our support documentation! IE Compatibility While using Wastebits in Chrome will still give you the best experience, you can now utilize the application in Internet Explorer 11! Updates to When You Can Edit Waste Streams Before a Waste Stream has been added to a Manifest, you can edit any of the fields you like. However, once the Waste Stream has been added to a Manifest, the Generator and Facility fields will lock, but the Waste fields can be updated. This is in the case that you realize you missed important details or want to tweak the way your Waste Description appears on a Manifest. Note: When updating a Waste Stream, all Manifests it had previously been added to will retain the old Waste information. Changes to Signatures when Uploading a Signed Manifest Previously, Wastebits required the Generator and Transporter companies to have Users in them before you could upload a signed manifest. Now you have the option to either select from Users in those Companies or to simply type in the name for signature. Note: You are still required to have a user in the Facility to upload the signed manifest. ## v3.5 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29524 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29524 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-11-10 What’s new in Wastebits v3.5 Wastebits has just been updated! This release contains: Receive Manifest Workflow Discrepancy Handling Progress Timeline Manifest Actions Menu Waste Stream Updates Revoke a Service Provider Transporter Company Sludge ID Field Receive Manifest Workflow (Used to be Upload Signed Manifest) A scanned copy of the manifest is no longer required to indicate that the Manifest has been Received. You’ll be able to go back and upload the signed copy later, if you wish! Discrepancy Handling Wish you had the ability to indicate that the Signed Manifest that you’re uploading has different information than what was entered digitally? Now Facility Users have the option to indicate a Discrepancy when receiving a Manifest. Just click “Yes” and a text area will open, allowing you to indicate what the discrepancy is: Progress Timeline Have you ever wondered what one of the Manifest Statuses means? Now with our Progress Timeline you can more clearly understand what state your Manifest is in. Just hover over any one of the statuses and you’ll see the explanation! Actions Menu As we continued to build out Non-Hazardous Manifesting, we noticed that the action buttons were starting to overtake your screen! We decided to consolidate them all into an easy dropdown with the actions that pertain to your user type and the state of the manifest: Waste Stream Updates Waste Code Field Does the Waste Stream you’re creating have a State Waste Code that you’d like to show up on the Manifest? Now there’s a field specifically for you to enter this information! Waste Name & Description We added some more information to these fields to help clarify what they’re for. The Waste Stream name will help you label your Waste Stream, and the Shipping Description is what will show up on your Manifest! Waste Line Preview If it still isn’t totally clear how your Waste Stream will show up on a Manifest, don’t worry - we’ve added the Waste Line Preview! Now when you’re creating your Waste Stream, you’ll see exactly how it will show up on the manifest as you’re creating it. Revoke a Service Provider No longer working with a Service Provider and want to remove them from your account? Now Generators and Facility Users have the option to revoke access. The Service Provider will still have access to the waste streams and manifests where they were added in the past, but won’t be able to edit them or create new ones. Transporter Company Sludge ID Field Does your Transporter Company have a Sludge ID that needs to appear on the Manifest? Now you can add these IDs to the Company details and they will appear on the printed Manifest. (There is still a spot for EPA IDs too!) ## v3.6 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29525 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29525 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-11-10 What's new in Wastebits v3.6 Wastebits has just been updated! This release contains: Create One or More Manifests from a Single Waste Stream Clone One or More Manifests from Existing Manifest Manifest Batch PDFs Multi-Delete Qualifying Manifests Manifest Rejection Transporter UpdatesAdd Transporter Company to a Manifest Multiple Times Add Service Provider to the Transporter Field Create One or More Manifests from a Single Waste Stream Now you can easily create a one-waste Manifest from the Waste Stream view! Navigate to the Waste Stream you wish to create the Manifest from and click on the Manifests tab, then click Create Manifests. From this screen, you’ll be able to select the number of Manifests you wish to create, and enter additional information that applies to all of the Manifests you’re creating including the Transporter, Container Number & Type, and Quantity. Note: You’ll want to leave any fields blank where the information doesn’t apply to every manifest you’re creating. You can then go in and individually edit the manifests to add those details. Clone One or More Manifests from Existing Manifest Do you have a manifest that’s identical or similar to an existing one and need another copy? Now, anyone with the permissions to create Manifests can do so by cloning an existing one. Simply navigate to the Manifest you wish to Clone, and select that option in the menu. From this screen, you’ll be able to select the number of Cloned Manifests you wish to create and select if you’d like to clone the Transporters as well as the Containers & Quantities. Manifest Batch PDF Now, when you create more than one Manifest either from the Waste Stream or by cloning a Manifest, you have the option to have a link to a PDF sent to your email address so that you can print these manifests all at once. Just leave the checkbox for “Send me an email with a printable PDF” enabled and you’ll receive the email! Multi-Delete Qualifying Manifests Did you make a mistake and accidentally created too many manifests? Or you just want to clean up your manifest list, but don’t want to have to delete each manifest individually? Click the Edit Mode button in your Manifest list view, and you’ll see checkboxes appear on the left that will enable you to select which manifests you wish to delete. Made a mistake? These manifests will remain in your Deleted Items for 30 days, where you can recover them if you so choose. Note: Once a manifest has been signed by the generator, it can no longer be deleted. These manifests will not be able to be selected in this view. Manifest Rejection Facility Users now have the ability to Reject a manifest instead of Receiving it. Simply select the Reject item in the dropdown and fill out the necessary fields. Note: If a manifest has not yet been signed by the generator, it cannot be rejected. However, it can still be deleted in this mode. Transporter Updates Add Transporter Company to a Manifest Multiple Times Do you have multiple drivers from the same Transporter company? Now you can add Transporter Companies to a Manifest more than once to ensure that each can sign the Manifest. Add Service Provider to the Transporter Field Is the Service Provider enabled on your Manifest also the Transporter? Now, the enabled Service Provider company will be available to select as the Transporter company as well. ## v9.35.2 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/82006 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/82006 -

Revamping Printing Waste Labels - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56331 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56331 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2025-06-23 Wastebits can print both Hazardous and Non-Hazardous waste labels right from our software. Do you need to print waste labels? With Wastebits, we aim to reduce the need to type things over and over again, and have created a way to print labels directly from our software using the information that has already been typed in for a Waste Stream, Form, or Manifest. There are 2 ways to create a Waste Label Option 1: Open or Create a Waste Stream For more information on creating a Waste Manifest. See our dedicated article on How to Create a Waste Manifest. Step 1: Select Print Waste Stream Labels Under the Actions menu in the upper-right of a waste stream, form, or manifest detail view, select Print Waste Stream Labels. Note: If you do not see this option reach out to our sales team for a demo or to have it enabled for your account. Option 2: Click on "Labels" on Left Side Navigation To activate this feature, please let us know, and we can develop a solution. Step 1: Select a Label Template You can either select a card template from the main screen or you can click "Print a Label" in the top right corner. Step 2: Select the Template of Label You Need to Print With the print dialogue box, you will have the option to select from a number of label template that are already formatted within our system. If you have a specific requirement for a label that is not in the dropdown list, please let us know and we can develop a solution. Step 2: Select the Type of Label You Need to Print When the print dialog box appears, you will be prompted to choose the type of label you wish to print. You have several options for locating the relevant information: By Waste Stream: Select a waste stream and choose an associated manifest to generate the label. By Manifest: Search by manifest to view and select the linked waste stream. Alternatively, if you prefer to create a custom label, select "Blank Label." This option allows you to enter as much or as little information as needed, independent of any existing waste stream or manifest data. Step 3: Print the PDF After hitting Print, a PDF document will open with all of the information of your label in the correct places ready to be printed. You can choose to print immediately or revisit this Waste Stream to print at a later time (or if you need multiple copies). How to Find the Label The label will automatically open the first time you press the Print button, but if you need to find the label PDF again, you can navigate to Documents within the Waste Stream, and the label will be listed as a file that you can click to re-open the PDF. How to View History Curious when a label was created, or by whom? Within the Waste Stream you can also click on History to view the time, date, and person who created the label. We're Here to Help If you are ready for label printing from within Wastebits, and you don't already have the option enabled within your account (or if you need to get started with Wastebits and all we have to offer), contact a member of our sales team today and we will get you set up! ## v9.23.0 Technical Release Notes -

URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76091 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76091 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2025-02-19 Learn the electronic signature requirements for all parties involved in the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system, ensuring compliance with EPA regulations. Electronic signatures play a vital role in the e-Manifest process, allowing for secure and verified acknowledgments at every stage of hazardous waste tracking. Whether you are a generator, transporter, or facility, ensuring that the proper signatures are in place is crucial for regulatory compliance. This guide outlines the electronic signature requirements for each party using the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system. Generator Signature Requirements As a generator, you are responsible for signing the e-Manifest to confirm the details of the waste shipment before it is transported: Generators must have RCRA credentials (EPA ID, API ID, and API Key) to submit an electronic signature via Wastebits.If the generator chooses not to sign electronically, the Receiving Facility can sign on their behalf. If the generator is not registered with a user account in the Wastebits portal, the facility will be notified to sign the manifest on behalf of the generator. Generators not mandated to register for e-Manifest should coordinate with their receiving facilities to provide paper copies of completed manifests. Transporter Signature Requirements The transporter is responsible for signing the e-Manifest when the hazardous waste is picked up for transport: Like the generator, transporters must have RCRA credentials to provide their electronic signature within Wastebits. Once the waste is in transit, the transporter’s signature serves as an acknowledgment of responsibility for the safe delivery to the receiving facility. Facility Signature Requirements Receiving facilities must sign the e-Manifest to confirm the delivery and receipt of the hazardous waste: Facilities need RCRA credentials to sign electronically, verifying that the waste has been received and processed. The facility’s signature marks the completion of the waste’s journey and confirms compliance with all necessary regulations. Important Notes Signature Verification: All signatures within the Wastebits system are legally binding and verified through the EPA’s RCRAInfo platform. Compliance: It is essential for all parties involved to ensure their signatures are in place before the manifest is finalized and submitted to the EPA. Conclusion Electronic signatures are a key part of the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system, ensuring that all hazardous waste shipments are properly documented and compliant with EPA regulations. By following these guidelines, generators, transporters, and facilities can contribute to a smooth, secure waste management process.

Wastebits provides real-time updates on status changes within the system. Finalization: Once the manifest reaches the Received status, it is considered complete. Any discrepancies noted after this stage should be handled separately. Conclusion Understanding the different statuses in the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system allows you to stay on top of your shipments and ensure compliance at every step. Monitoring the progress from Draft to Received ensures that all parties involved are informed and that the hazardous waste is properly tracked. If you have any questions about e-Manifest statuses, contact help@wastebits.com. For more information on how this system can benefit your organization, reach out to sales@wastebits.com. ## Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest Quickstart Guide - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76098 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76098 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2025-02-19 This guide walks you through setting up and using the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system, ensuring a smooth, compliant process for hazardous waste management. Step 1: Set Up Your RCRA Credentials To begin, you'll need valid credentials from the EPA’s RCRAInfo platform, including your EPA ID, API ID, and API Key. These are essential for submitting e-Manifests through Wastebits. Create a Site Manager Account: Visit the RCRAInfo website and register for a Site Manager account for your organization. Generate API Credentials: Once logged in, select “Tools” from the top navigation and choose “API” to generate your API ID and API Key. Provide Your Credentials: Submit your EPA ID and API credentials to Wastebits to link your account. Full guide to setting up RCRA credentials Step 2: Submitting Your First e-Manifest Once your account is set up, you can prepare and submit e-Manifests directly through Wastebits. This process ensures that all necessary details are completed before submission. Prepare the e-Manifest: Input all required information, including generator, transporter, facility and waste details. The system will notify you of missing fields to ensure completeness. Submit the e-Manifest: Click Submit to send the e-Manifest to the EPA. The status will update to Scheduled, and the EPA will assign a Manifest Tracking Number (MTN). Monitor the Submission: Track the status of your manifest as it moves through the shipment process. The system will notify all parties when signatures are needed throughout the chain of custody. Step-by-step guide to submitting e-Manifests Step 3: Correcting Errors and Handling Changes Mistakes can happen, but Wastebits makes it easy to correct errors both during transport and afterwards. You can document any discrepancies or edits for future reference throughout the transportation process and beyond. During Transport: If an error is discovered, make edits directly within the Wastebits portal. Ensure all parties, especially the generator, are aware of the corrections. Receiving Facility: Changes to the waste information become more restricted after the waste has been received (CROMERR Signed). However, discrepancies may still be documented for compliance purposes within Wastebits. It is essential to possess e-Manifest Certifier permissions in order to make and submit electronic corrections, even after the facility has signed the initial manifest. If corrections are made within Wastebits after the TSDF has signed the final manifest (CROMERR), the manifest will update to "Under Correction" status within RCRA. The registered user will then need to log in to RCRA to re-sign and acknowledge the corrections made. Detailed guide to correcting errors Step 4: Monitor e-Manifest Statuses Wastebits provides real-time tracking for each stage of the e-Manifest process. Understanding these RCRA statuses helps you ensure smooth transitions between parties. Draft: The e-Manifest is still being prepared. Scheduled: The e-Manifest has been submitted and is awaiting transport. In Transit: The waste has been picked up by the transporter. Received: The receiving facility has confirmed receipt of the waste. Under Correction: Corrections are being made to the manifest within Wastebits or RCRA after CROMERR Signature. Complete guide to e-Manifest statuses Step 5: Electronic Signature Requirements Transporters and facilities must provide an electronic signature to ensure that the waste shipment is compliant and properly documented. Generators: Must sign off before transport or have the receiving facility sign on their behalf. Transporters: Sign when the waste is picked up. Facilities: Sign once the waste is received, marking the manifest as complete. Full guide to electronic signature requirements Conclusion By following these steps, you'll ensure your e-Manifests are prepared, submitted, and tracked properly within Wastebits. Each step, from credential setup to manifest submission and corrections, ensures that your organization stays compliant with EPA regulations.

The Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system simplifies hazardous waste tracking by integrating directly with the EPA’s RCRAInfo platform. This system streamlines the submission process while ensuring compliance with federal and state regulations. Whether you're a generator, transporter, or receiving facility, using Wastebits for your e-Manifests helps you manage the entire process efficiently. This guide outlines the key steps for preparing, submitting, and managing e-Manifests within Wastebits. Step 1: Preparing the e-Manifest Before you submit your e-Manifest, it's critical to ensure all necessary information is accurate and complete: Input details for the generator, transporter, and waste type. Double-check any required documentation or specific state regulations. Wastebits will automatically alert you to any missing fields that need to be completed before submission. Only when all required data is provided can the manifest be marked as Prepared. Step 2: Submitting the e-Manifest to EPA Once the e-Manifest is prepared, it’s time to submit it: Click the Submit button to send the e-Manifest to the EPA via Wastebits’ secure connection. The manifest will transition to Scheduled status, awaiting pickup by the transporter. Upon submission, the EPA will assign the manifest a unique Manifest Tracking Number (MTN) to help track it throughout the process. Step 3: Monitoring the Status After submission, it’s important to monitor the manifest’s progress. Wastebits provides clear status updates to keep you informed: Draft: The manifest is still in the preparation stage and has not been submitted. Scheduled: The manifest is awaiting pickup after being submitted to the EPA. In Transit: The transporter has picked up the waste and is en route to the facility. Received: The receiving facility has signed off on the manifest, confirming that the waste has arrived. Step 4: Correcting Errors Before Transport Mistakes happen, and the Wastebits system makes it easy to correct them before the waste is transported: If you discover any discrepancies or missing information, simply make the necessary edits within the Wastebits portal. Ensure the generator reviews and re-acknowledges any changes. Wastebits will automatically resubmit the manifest corrections to RCRA to avoid potential delays or compliance issues. Important Notes State Compliance: Some states may impose additional requirements for e-Manifests. Always verify any local regulations that apply to your specific shipment. Corrections after CROMERR Sign: It is essential to possess e-Manifest Certifier permissions in order to make and submit electronic corrections, even after the facility has signed the initial manifest. If corrections are made within Wastebits after the TSDF has signed the final manifest, the manifest will update to "Under Correction" status within RCRA. The registered user will then need to log in to RCRA to re-sign and acknowledge the corrections made. Conclusion Submitting and managing your e-Manifests in Wastebits ensures that you meet regulatory requirements while streamlining your waste tracking operations.

Errors on an e-Manifest can disrupt the tracking process and lead to compliance issues. The Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system allows you to easily identify and correct errors before the waste is transported and provides guidance on handling discrepancies after transport. This document will walk you through the steps for making corrections to your e-Manifests, ensuring your shipments stay compliant and on track. Step 1: Correcting Errors During Transport If you discover an error on the e-Manifest before the waste has reached the Facility: Access the e-Manifest in Wastebits and navigate to the section requiring changes (e.g., generator information, waste details, transporter details). Make the necessary edits directly within the Wastebits portal. Ensure the generator is aware of the corrected information. Once the changes are made, Wastebits will update RCRA with the changes and ensure compliance before the waste is transported. Step 2: Handling Corrections After Transport After the waste has been transported, making corrections becomes more restrictive. However, there are still ways to address any discovered discrepancies: If discrepancies are found after transport, make edits directly within the Wastebits portal. Ensure all parties are aware of the corrections. The discrepancy should be logged through the Wastebits system or directly with RCRAInfo to ensure the change is acknowledged. It is essential to possess e-Manifest Certifier permissions in order to make and submit electronic corrections, even after the facility has signed the initial manifest. If corrections are made within Wastebits after the TSDF has signed (CROMERR) the final manifest, the manifest will update to "Under Correction" status within RCRA and all parties will be prompted to resign the manifest. The TSDF user will then need to log in to RCRA to CROMERR Sign and acknowledge the corrections made. Important Notes Acknowledgment of Changes: All parties (generator, transporter, and facility) should review and acknowledge any corrections made while the waste is being transported. This step is crucial to maintaining compliance and preventing delays. EPA Requirements: Ensure that you’re adhering to all EPA regulations regarding the correction of e-Manifests. Significant errors may result in fines or compliance issues if not corrected promptly. Conclusion Handling errors in your e-Manifests is a straightforward process when using the Wastebits Hybrid e-Manifest system. By addressing issues before transport and documenting discrepancies afterward, you can stay compliant and ensure your hazardous waste shipments are accurately tracked.

Editing a Waste Stream, Bill-To Toggle, Sites Tab, Tagging Updates - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58099 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58099 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2025-01-29 New Features This new release is packed full of new feature functionality to help organize your company. Editing a Waste Stream After Submission Currently, if edits need to be made to a waste stream after the waste stream has been submitted, you need to retract the submission and the customer needs to edit the waste stream and resubmit. We have created the ability for you to be able to edit the waste stream in the submission status (prior to approval) without having to retract it. This feature functionality is only available on a per-facility basis. If you would like this feature turned on at one or more of your facilities, please contact customer support here. Bill-To Toggle in the Site Form While entering or editing a site form, you now have the option to list the site as "Billable" by turning on the "Billable" toggle at the bottom of the form. Currently, the billable toggle is not linked to any functionality within the waste stream, but we will be building upon this feature in coming months to assist with any internal accounting needs. To go along with the toggle, we have provided you with an advanced filter to be able to display any sites listed as billable or non-billable within the company or underneath the sites tab. Sites Tab Upgrade We just gave the Sites tab a facelift! You will now notice that Sites are now displayed in our new card-style display, similar to waste streams. The filters and functionality work the same as before. You do also have the same option as in the waste stream tab to display your sites in card view or in row view. Updates to Waste Stream Tagging Tags have been such a great function and addition to waste streams to keep you organized, and we just stepped up our tag game! Here are the new things you will see while attaching tags: Ability to add multiple tags at once. Enhanced search functionality. Drop-down pick list that allows you to see all of your tags easily. Endless color options. We have provided you with a new color pick chart that allows you to pick from any color or enter your own Hex code to assign a color to your tags. ## New Feature Alert! EPA Toggles and Notification Email Updates - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76218 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76218 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2025-01-29 EPA Hazardous / EPA Non-EPA Hazardous Toggle When you bypass the EPA Hazardous toggle on the Waste Description tab, the Non-EPA Hazardous section will automatically be displayed. You will no longer have to toggle on and off the EPA Hazardous toggle on the Waste Description tab. Email Notifications Updated The city and state for the Generator, Billing Site, and Facility are now listed within the notifications. ## v7.3.8 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81169 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81169 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-01-29 v7.3.8 Core Application Updates When the unit of measure name was not being filled out in the waste stream but the measurement value was, this was causing the waste stream print view to not display any following information beyond that point. Email notifications were being sent out to users regardless of their notification preferences. Read-Only users were unable to update their approval notifications. When a user already exists in the application and requests access to the application, the user that is trying to approve the request is receiving an error message. Now, when a user requests access to the application after they already have an account, the user approving the request will see a "Pending" status until the new user has logged in. ## v7.3.14 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76300 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76300 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-01-29 v7.3.14 Core Application Updates DOT Hazardous subsidiary classification dropdown "Created At" timestamp added to company, sites, and user tables Fixed issue with state ID not being copied over when updating a generator site ## v9.7.0 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81160 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81160 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-01-29 V9.7.0 Core Application Updates Ability to broker a waste stream by utilizing outbound facilities ## v9.6.0 Technical Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81152 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/81152 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2025-01-29 v9.6.0 Core Application Updates Manifest Updates - Send corrections and discrepancy data to RCRA e-Services ID field lookup responsiveness Add tagging to Forms Archived manifests don't display with filter within WEM Update core client form Update core client report ## New Feature Alert!

This is a portal company-only feature, and while Portal Admins and Portal Site Admins can add and remove tags, any portal company user can view attached tags.

Wastebits Platform Update: Enhanced Waste Stream Creation with Flagging Custom Parameters - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58448 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58448 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 We are excited to announce the release of a new feature on the Wastebits platform that significantly improves the waste stream creation process. With this update, users and waste approvers will be able to immediately identify values that fall outside of acceptable parameters during the creation of a waste stream. What’s New Flagging Custom Parameters Real-Time Validation: As users input data, the system now checks values against pre-set acceptable ranges and codes. Instant Feedback: If a value such as a waste code is not accepted, or if a numerical value falls outside the acceptable range, it will be highlighted within the details view. Guidance for Correction: The application not only flags these values but also provides an opportunity for users to adjust them in real-time, reducing the risk of errors and rejections. Streamlined Process: This feature aims to make the waste stream creation process more intuitive, helping users to comply with regulations and internal standards without needing to refer to external documents or support. Benefits to Users Increased Accuracy: Minimizes the risk of incorrect data entries and non-compliant waste streams. Efficiency: Saves time by alerting users to issues before submission, rather than after submission. User Experience: Provides a more guided and user-friendly interface that simplifies waste stream creation. Compliance Support: Assists in maintaining compliance with environmental regulations by flagging disallowed values before being submitted. How It Works Upon entering a data point that does not conform to the pre-defined acceptable parameters, the field will be immediately highlighted in the details view. A message will display, explaining why the value is unacceptable and what range or codes are allowed. Users can then adjust the value to fit within the acceptable parameters before submitting the waste stream for processing. Getting Started Current users will see these changes reflected immediately upon their next waste stream creation. There is no action required to activate this feature. If you would like to take advantage of this implementation, please contact our support for additional assistance at help@wastebits.com. Thank you for using Wastebits. We are committed to continually enhancing our platform to meet the evolving needs of our users. ## New Feature Alert! Tag Warnings and Updating Waste Streams After Approvals - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76304 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/76304 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 Long Tag Warning If your tag exceeds our 50 character limit, you will be notified that your tag will be truncated to accommodate for size. Updating Waste Streams After Approval Do you ever have Waste Streams that are submitted and approved just in time for you to notice that a simple change needs to be made? Perhaps the Facility you approved the waste to go to is closed for a holiday, or maybe the generator noticed that as they were prepping their material for transport, they had more than they thought and needs to change their quantity. If you would like your approval team to be able to go into a waste stream and quickly update the waste stream without having to retract it and send it back to the generator to make the adjustments, please let us know here and we can activate this functionality within your portal right away. ## New Feature Alert! Document Displays and Company Site Templates - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58577 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58577 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 Take a look at these tiny... but mighty updates to our application. Our goal is to make your user experience more streamlined and efficient. Document Display Order If you have a long list of documents, you can now sort by ascending or descending order by date for easier viewing. Simply click on the arrows listed next to the Documents header to sort your view. Create Site From a Company Template and Copy Company Data When creating a company within your portal, you now have the ability to create a site directly from your company template. And that's not all! You can now also copy your company data into your site name/address to eliminate double data entry. We're all about time saving! All of the data that you entered into the Company Template can be transfered over to the Site Template with a flip of the toggle! ## New Feature Alert! Outbound Facility Company Type - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58768 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/58768 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 OUTBOUND FACILITIES! Here at Wastebits, we understand that sometimes the buck... waste, doesn't stop with your own facilities. That is why we are now giving you the ability to create a Facility type with outbound capabilities. Creating an outbound Facility is simple. Any Portal Admin can now add an outbound facility by utilizing the Company/Sites section that already exists. Once you click on "Create Company" you will immediatly notice our new Facility Type toggle. Once that toggle is selected, your company will default to "Outbound" and you may create your facility and site/s as usual. So, what does this do and where does it apply? All great questions. If you don't already, you must contact our customer support HERE, to request that your portal have the "Service Provider" feature enabled. Once this has been enabled you are off to the races. Your exising portal facilities will continue to live under your portal company umbrella and nothing there will change. You may enter as many outbound facility companies/sites as you'd like. Your customers will still only see your portal company facilities when filling out a waste stream, manifest, forms or any other form within our application. Here is where this nifty outbound facility change comes into play... Do you have a waste stream or multiple waste streams that you want to manage but it simply isn't accepted at any of your facilities? Or maybe you have a transfer station and your facility is just the first stop along the way. You can now create your own waste stream and select an outbound facility. This is awesome for tracking and reporting purposes. Don't worry though, this capability is strictly limited to a few portal facility users (Portal Admin, Site Admin, Site Approver). When those users create a new waste stream, they will get to choose from a combined list of your portals internal facilities as well as those outbound facilities that you entered at the beginning of this process. If an outbound facility is selected within the waste stream, your new waste stream will automatically be tagged with an Outbound flag, but more about that in a bit. The neat thing about this is that you have control over what your customers see within their account. You may select your customer as a generator or you may select any other company (including your portal company) as the generator. This will determine who has viewable access to this particular waste stream. Once the Waste Stream is created, submitted, and approved that information will also flow into any forms, manifest, report, or scale ticket that is associated. Phew!! Now how are you going to tell the difference between the Inbound and Outbound waste streams easily within your portal? We flag them for you! Here at WB, we like to keep things simple. You will notice your waste streams will now have a bold "IB" or "OB" listed on the left of the card, prior to the waste stream name. Filtering You may also filter your IB/OB facilities by using the "Broker Orientation" filter. This is located within the Companies, Sites and Waste Streams tabs. To access the Broker Orientation filter, simply click on the Advanced Filter icon in the top right corner of your filters section and you will be able to select from Inbound, Outbound, or All to better drill down your search. ## New Feature Alert! Tag Filter Change - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/70354 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/70354 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 New Tag Filter Changes Tag filters have been updated to associate unique tags with their corresponding sections of the application. Specifically, if a tag is created within the Waste Stream section, it will be restricted to filtering within that section only. Consequently, the tag will no longer appear in other areas of the application, including tag selection or filtering functionalities. Notice "Waste Stream Tag" within Waste Stream Section Displays no Waste Stream Tag as Listed Above ## New Feature Alert! New Hybrid Manifest Notification Preferences, Alerts, and Activity Logs - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/72184 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/72184 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 New Hybrid Manifest Notification Preferences, Alerts, and Activity Logs We have recently implemented the new hybrid manifest functionality in our application. If you are not yet familiar with it, we encourage you to explore it Hybrid e-Manifest . In light of this enhancement, we have also decided to update our notification preferences, alerts, and activity log emails. Notification Preferences To modify the frequency of your email notifications for manifest signature requests, please click on your name located in the top right corner of the application. Then select "Your Preferences" and choose from the options: Frequently (every 5 minutes), Daily, or Never. Alerts Have you heard of the saying "Every time a bell rings, an Angel get it's wings?" Zuzu was on to something, so we incorporated manifest signature notifications by ringing your notification bell! Now, every time a bell rings, a manifest get it's signature. Simply click on the bell next to your name in the top right corner of your application. From there, you can find any manifests that need to be signed. You will have the option to mark the notification as read, view the manifest, or sign the manifest. Activity Logs Lastly, we have incorporated a new manifest activity in the Latest Activity Email. This email provides you with the ability to navigate to the manifest in our application, sign the manifest with our applicstion, as well as a link to RCRA for signing and managing your manifest. ## New Feature Alert! Address Templating, User Views and DOT Builder Updates - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/75925 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/75925 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 New Street Number/Name Fields Due to recent modifications to our API, it has become necessary to separate the street number from the street name. We have restructured the address section within both company and site templates to facilitate a more user-friendly transition. Users will now observe clearly defined field labels along with inline fields designated for the entry of the street number and the street name. User Views To enhance user experience, we have implemented a new User View filter that defaults to displaying only active users. If you wish to view deactivated users, you still have that option available. Please click on the Advanced Filter button and select either "All" or "Inactive" to access this information. DOT Builder and Shipping Description Additions We have identified frequently utilized phrases within manifests and have introduced new "Selectable" phrase entries to reduce data entry effort. These enhancements can be accessed directly through your waste stream template or via our manifest feature. ## New Feature Alert! DOT Haz Builder and Created At Timestamp - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56716 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56716 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-11-05 DOT Hazardous Subsidiary Classification If your waste is classified as EPA Hazardous, you can now select multiple hazard classifications. Per our previous workflow, the application will automatically recommend a hazardous class to the user based on the ID Number provided. You can now add as many Subsidiary Hazard Classes as needed for the waste. "Created At" Timestamp Added to Company, Sites, and User Tables A "Created At" timestamp has been added to the tables located in the company, sites, and users sections. You can now quickly view when an entity was created as well as sort by the creation date by clicking on the two sort arrows next to the heading. ## How to Authorize a Client Application to the Wastebits API (For Facilities) - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33889 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33889 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-10-31 Basic Information Profile data becomes even more powerful when integrated into your operational and sales enablement systems, like Salesforce or Hubspot CRMs. We've developed an API subscription your technical resources may use to integrate Waste Stream and Approvals data between Wastebits and your internal systems. This document will describe how to set up a Client Application to utilize that API. Before following the steps below, ensure that your company has worked with Wastebits Sales or Customer Support to have this feature enabled. Go to Your Company As a Portal Admin, click on your Company icon on the bottom left, then scroll to the right and click on the Client Applications tab. Add a New Client Application & Set Permissions Start by clicking the Create New Client Application button. On the screen that follows, Enter a name, and then select the appropriate permissions. You will then be able to select which Facility Sites you want to pull data from. If you do not make a selection, the application will be granted access to all sites in your company Click Save to confirm your selections. You will be able to edit these details in the future if needed. Save your Client Secret Very Important: Do not refresh your screen or navigate away from this page before saving your Client Secret. This is the only time you will be able to access this information. If you accidentally leave this page before saving the client secret, you will need to deactivate your event subscription and start over to be able to utilize it.

How to Create and Submit Hybrid e-Manifests - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56736 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56736 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2024-10-24 Hybrid e-Manifests & EPA/RCRA Integration Go to Manifests Click the Manifests Icon on the left side navigation. Create a manifest and add your Waste Streams, which will pull in your company, site, and waste details automatically. Once you enter all required manifest details and save it as a draft, Wastebits will validate the manifest against the EPA’s RCRAInfo system. If valid, you will click on the “Send to EPA” option, which will appear in the Actions dropdown. This will trigger a screen to open for the Generator to sign, date, and then send to RCRAInfo. Once sent to RCRAInfo, the status of the manifest becomes “Prepared”. At this point, a new manifest has been created in RCRAInfo, and a new link in the Actions Menu will allow the user to view the manifest on RCRAInfo. RCRAInfo will also kick back a PDF that will be located next to the “Scan of Paper Manifest” section. RCRAInfo will return the generated Manifest Tracking Number and the manifest will be updated simultaneously in Wastebits. The first transporter will receive an email giving them a link to the RCRAInfo portal to sign the document. Once the initial transporter has signed, each additional transporter will receive an email to do the same, followed by the facility. The links provided via email will take the user directly to the manifest in RCRAInfo. If the user is signed into RCRAInfo, they can review and click “Quick Sign”, which will automatically notify Wastebits. The status of the manifest will then update in Wastebits along with any transporter and facility signatures. Once the first transporter signs within RCRA, the status will change to “In Transit” until it reaches the Waste Facility for signature. Viola! Hybrid manifest signed, sealed, and delivered. Wastebits will detect the manifest was submitted to the EPA already and update the manifest in Wastebits to mark it as complete by the next day. ## New Feature Alert! Hybrid e-Manifesting is Finally Here! - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56737 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56737 - Category: New Feature Releases - Updated: 2024-10-24 Hybrid e-Manifests & EPA/RCRA Integration In an effort to improve hazardous waste compliance and streamline the e-Manifest process, Wastebits has released a new Hybrid e-Manifest option. This system unlocks a new level of integration with the EPA's RCRAinfo system, providing your business with a more efficient way to manage your hazardous waste—reducing fees required for every manifest. This can save your business hundreds of thousands of dollars over time. Previously, our customers would need to upload a physical scan of a signed manifest, and the Wastebits team of manifest specialists would review and manually enter the data of each manifest into a digital format that the EPA accepts. Now, the data you enter into Wastebits can be submitted directly to the EPA from within the software itself, and a paper manifest will be generated automatically if it needs to be printed, but no more scanning and uploading needs to happen since the primary documentation is now within the system itself. This new system has the potential to save your business time and money, as you will no longer have to enter data into the EPA's RCRAinfo system manually. In addition, the integration with Wastebits' software will provide your business with real-time updates on the status of your manifests, allowing you to track your waste from pickup to disposal. Wastebits is committed to providing your business with the most efficient and compliant waste management software and solutions available, and the new hybrid e-Manifest option is just one more way that we are doing that. How Does Wastebits’ New Hybrid e-Manifest System Work? Very little has changed from what is seen within the application. Most of the changes are done via the software, behind the scenes in communicating with the EPA and reflecting that communication within Wastebits. A new dropdown option appears after creating a draft manifest that allows the user to submit to the EPA. Yes, it's that simple! This action sends all of the information to the EPA's RCRAInfo system, where the EPA generates a new manifest with a tracking id. This tracking id is then sent back to Wastebits and is automatically added to the manifest information. The generator can sign the manifest via Wastebits as before, and Wastebits will send out email notifications to each party as required with a button to the place where they can sign the manifest and move the statuses along from Draft to Received at the destination facility. What Are The Next Steps For Your Business if You're Interested In Using Wastebits' New Hybrid E-Manifest System? If your business is interested in using Wastebits' new hybrid e-Manifest system, you can contact sales to have this feature unlocked in your account, along with the support needed to get everything connected and running smoothly. You can also set up a quick demo. View the availability schedule here. ## New Feature Alert - Insights!

Once you click Export, you will be able to give a description to this export. Be as descriptive as possible as you can revisit this export with a single click later.

For this you might want to first save your search criteria, then re-run the search later for the latest information. Congratulations! You will receive an email within a few moments that includes a link to the export file. You can also view your exports within Wastebits Insights by going to My Account > My Exports. The My Exports screen will show you a listing of all of the exports that you've created. You can search and filter these exports if you grow your list and need fast access.

Your file will be downloaded as a Comma Separated Value (csv) text file. This can be easily opened with Excel or any spreadsheet tool, as well as uploaded to most 3rd party tools when using their import options. Each column is given a logical heading for easy reference. Note: Exports are limited to the first 1,000 rows of data for each search. If your search queries require more than this, either create multiple subsets of searches to export, or contact help@wastebits.com to explore options for larger export capabilities. ## New Feature Alert - Insights!

Wastebits has your back you when you need to print a manifest. While Wastebits can help you manage a fully digital experience when it comes to Waste Manifests, there are times where a printed copy is needed or helpful. With the built-in Manifest printing option, all of your Waste Stream and even signature information can be printed out accurately onto a hazardous waste manifest form. Step 1: Open or Create a Waste Manifest For more information on creating a Waste Manifest, see our dedicated article on How to Create a Waste Manifest. Step 2: Select the Print Action From the Actions menu at the top of the Waste Manifest details, select Print. Step 3: Fill Out the Manifest Print Information There are a few fields available after opening the print dialogue box. The Manifest Tracking Number is optional, and can be entered later if needed. There are also options for which Manifest Template is going to be printed on. While we support Universal Waste Manifests, if you need a custom setup for your organization's waste manifest forms, let us know so we can explore options with you. When you are finished filling out the information, select Print. Step 4: Open the PDF At this point a PDF will be generated and can be opened to be printed with your operating system. The fields will be laid out to print into the proper fields on a Waste Manifest form. At this point you can add a Manifest Tracking Number if you haven't already, and if you have entered signature data those will be printed out on the Manifest as well. If you enter them later and would like to print them out, just follow steps 2-4 again. We're Here to Help If you are ready for label printing from within Wastebits, and you don't already have the option enabled within your account (or if you need to get started with Wastebits and all we have to offer), contact a member of our sales team today and we will get you set up! ## How to Create a Non-Hazardous Manifest - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29594 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29594 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2024-09-23 Facility users and Service Providers can create a manifest for their generator customers, or generators can create the manifest on their own! Go to Manifests Click the Manifests Icon. Click Create Non-Hazardous Manifest Click Add a Waste Add the Waste Stream Use the Existing Waste Stream lookup to find Waste Streams that you have created. This is the best option if you'd like to re-use a waste, track history, and view associated manifests. If you'd like more details about a Waste Stream that has a Service Provider enabled, see these instructions. Note: Profiled waste streams may be added to a non-hazardous manifest as long as they are not EPA Hazardous. You can also elect to enter a One-Time Waste as a quick way to enter waste that will not be used again. Enter the Container Number and Type as well as the Quantity. These fields are not required at this time, but will be required before the Manifest can be received. Select the Destination Facility and Generator If you selected an existing waste stream, this information will be automatically added. If you've entered a one-time Waste Stream, you will be able to select the Facility and Generator in the drop-downs. Select the Transporter(s) You may add as many Transporter companies as applicable. If you need to create a new Transporter company and don't want to lose progress on your manifest, click on the Review and Save step to Save before exiting the Manifest. Review and Save If there are any changes that need to be made before saving, you can click Previous Step to go back, or click on the sidebar to go directly to a specific section. This manifest will now be visible to all included Companies. ## How to Create a Waste Stream - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29474 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29474 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2024-09-23 Easily create waste streams requiring approval (profiled) or a non-profiled waste stream to be added to a non-hazardous manifest. Click Create Waste Stream In order to create a new Waste Stream, you must navigate to Waste Streams in the sidebar, then click Create Waste Stream. Select the Facility and Waste Type (1) Select the Destination Facility Site for your waste. (2) Select what type of Waste you are submitting. What is available in this list may vary based on what is available in your Portal as well as what Facility you have selected. (3) Give a name to your Waste Stream. This will be something that you can use to search for in the list view. Add the other Companies to the Waste Stream (1) Generator Company and Site Depending on your User type and your Company's settings, the Generator Company and Site may already be pre-filled. Otherwise you can select from the options in the list. Note: If you are a Service Provider and aren't authorized to the Client that you need to add to the Waste Stream, you can create a Draft without the Generator selected. You will need to request authorization to the client and add them to be able to submit the Waste Stream for approval. (2) Service Providers If you are a Service Provider... You will automatically be added to the Waste Stream you're creating (unless your company is multi-type). If you're working with another Service Provider, you may add them by clicking the Service Provider button and selecting them from a list of all Service Providers within the Portal. If you are a Generator or Facility user... Click on the Service Provider button to add up to two Service Providers to a Waste Stream. Service Providers that have already been authorized to create Waste Streams on the Generator's behalf will be indicated, but you can also choose to add any Service Provider in the Portal to a Waste Stream individually. (3) Transporter The Transporter field can be used to document preferred or authorized Transporters for a particular Waste Stream. Users in the Transporter Companies that you add will not have access the Waste Stream, so feel free to add as many as you need. (4) Billing Site The Billing Site selection will include all Generator and Service Provider Sites you have added to the Waste Stream for you to select the appropriate one. Note: Some Portals may select the Billing Site for you, and you can skip this step. If your Company or Site isn't in the list... Here are some additional guides that will assist you if the Companies and Sites you wish to add to the Waste Stream do not already exist: How to Create a New Customer Company How to Create a Company Site Requesting Access to a Generator Company (For Service Providers) Set the Material Origin If the Material Origin information is the same as the Generator Site (displayed in the box below) simply select Yes and the information will be automatically filled. If the Material Origin information is different than the Generator Site address, select No and you'll be able to type in the information one-time for this Waste Stream only (a new Generator Site will not be created). Enter Waste Description Non-Profiled Waste Streams For waste streams that do not require an approval (MSW and C&D) you will be able to answer a few simple questions and click Save. Required fields are indicated with an asterisk*. As you enter information, a Waste Stream Preview will complete that will show you how the data will appear on a manifest. Profiled Waste Streams For Waste Streams that do require an approval, you will see a Waste Stream builder form appear. As you toggle on selections on this screen, additional questions will appear. Required fields are indicated with an asterisk*. Complete the Waste Stream by answering all pertinent information on the following pages, then click Save. The final step in creating a Waste Stream is to review and save your information. If there are any changes that need to be made before saving, you can click Previous Step to go back, or click on the sidebar to go directly to a specific section. Once you save, all companies on the Waste Stream will be able to see the draft. Add Contacts to a Profiled Waste Stream Once you have saved your Profiled Waste Stream, you may specify key Contact(s) from the existing users in the Generator, Service Provider, Transporter, and Billing Companies. Click Add Contact then search in the box that appears for the existing user that you wish to add. If the user has specified a title or phone number in their Account Details, you will see that information here. You have the option to add a telephone number if it is missing. Click Add Contact to continue. You may also choose to Create a One-Time Contact if the Contact you wish to add is not already a User in the system. Enter the Contact's details on the form that follows and click Add Contact to continue. You will now see the contact listed on the Waste Stream and will have the option to remove the contact if they were added in error, or mention them in a comment. Submit Profiled Waste Streams for Approval Once you have created your draft Profile, you can submit it to the Facility by clicking Certify and Submit. Note: Once a Waste Stream has been approved, you will no longer be able to change any of the Companies or Sites on the Waste Stream. A Certification box will appear for you to type your name, then submit the request for approval to the Facility. If you have submitted the Profiled Waste Stream in error, you may undo it by clicking Retract Submission and Edit. ## Signing a Non-Hazardous Manifest - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29608 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29608 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2024-09-23 Everything you need to know about signing manifests. Whether a Facility member, Service Provider, or Generator creates the manifest - the Generator will always sign first! Facilities and Service Providers can Mark a Manifest as Prepared to let the Generator know that it is time to sign. The manifest must be signed in order - after the Generator signs, the Transporter(s) will follow, then finally the Facility. A Facility member may skip ahead to Marking a Manifest as Received and enter all necessary signatures at any time after the Manifest has been Marked as Prepared. Note: Any User in the Generator or Service Provider Company on the Manifest is able to sign on behalf of the Generator. Go to the Manifest to Sign Click on Sign Manifest If it is your turn to sign the manifest, a link will appear on the Manifest details page that you can click to sign. Sign the Manifest To sign, simply type your name in the signature box, and click Sign Manifest. Review the Signatures To review existing signatures and see who has yet to sign the manifest, simply click on the Signatures tab. ## v6.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31643 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31643 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2024-07-09 Enhanced Email Notifications We heard from you that you enjoy using the email notifications and could use more information in them, so we did the following: Added settings for User Account and Client Authorization Requests Redesigned format with clearer information Added Facility Site, Billing Site, Generator Site, and Approval ID to each update Added waste stream comments text For high volume sites, we're displaying more updates per email (up to 30 per category) Updated Error Notifications There was some confusion around a few error notifications, so we clarified the message displayed when a Facility User attempts to: Approve/reject a User Request that's already been reviewed Authorize a Client Authorization Request that's already been authorized Company Activities Have you ever been looking at a Waste Stream and noticed that the name of a Company changed, and wondered when that change happened or who made it? With this update we'll be releasing Company activities (very similar to Waste Stream activities) so that you'll be able to easily see what was changed and when. Waste Stream Templates Have you ever wanted to: Ask questions that aren't on the Wastebits profile? Require customers to answer certain questions before submission? Remove questions that aren't relevant to your customers? Have different profiles for different Facility sites? If yes, contact us to discuss Wastebits' new Waste Stream Templates feature - that can do all of this and more! Updated Print Views To support the Waste Stream Templates feature, we've updated the PDFs of Waste Streams to be flexible to the template in your branded portal! The layout may look slightly different, but don't worry - all of the information you're used to seeing will still be there. Waste Stream API Integration Profile data becomes even more powerful when integrated into your operational and sales enablement systems, like Salesforce or Hubspot CRMs. We've developed an API subscription your technical resources use to integrate data between the Wastebits Profile and your internal systems. Contact us today if you're interested in learning more about waste stream data integration. Forms Wastebits already has digital Non-Hazardous Manifests and Hazardous Manifest processing, but are there other types of forms that would be valuable to integrate with your Profiling system? Bills of Lading? Special manifests? Recycling program shipment tracking? Contact us today if you have other forms you'd like to see in Wastebits. Fixes 6.0.2 We inadvertently removed the additional lines for signature on a printed Waste Stream, so we added those back in. ## v3.2 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29440 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29440 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2023-06-13 Wastebits has just been updated!

This release contains: Transporter UpdatesAdd to a Waste Stream Add a Transporter Contact on a Waste Stream French and Spanish Translation Transporter Updates Add to a Waste Stream We heard from you that there are times that you wish to document preferred or authorized Transporters for a particular Waste Stream. Users in the Transporter Companies that you add will not have access the Waste Stream, so feel free to add as many as you need. You can do this one of two ways: Look up and connect to an existing Company in your Portal Enter a one-time Transporter for this specific Waste Stream Add a Transporter Contact on a Waste Stream After you've added a Transporter Company to your Waste Stream, you'll have the option on the details view to add more contact information (First and Last Name, Email, Title, and Phone Number) for as many contacts at the Transporter Company as you need. French and Spanish Translation Would you or your customers benefit from being able to translate the Wastebits application into Spanish or French? Let us know that you're interested our multi-lingual support, and we'll discuss options for enabling this feature for you and your customers. ## Accessing and Navigating the new Waste Stream List View - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55565 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55565 - Category: Service Provider - Updated: 2023-06-13 To access the new list view... Navigate to your Waste Streams then click on the Take a Look button in the purple banner: Want to switch back? You can easily toggle back and forth between the old view and the new version via the Take a Look! button in the list view, or if you've cleared the purple bar you can change your settings at any time in your User Preferences: New List View Features In this section we'll describe the features available in the new list view: The status filter will enable you to filter Waste Streams by Draft, Submitted, Approved, Expiring, etc. just like you did before. The search bar functions just as before, where you can search for any keyword that appears on the Waste Stream cards or listview items. The sort function allows you to sort based on any number of items such as when the waste stream was last updated or the companies on the Waste Stream. The sort arrow allows you to sort either ascending or descending based on the sort option you selected in #3. Switch between the new list view and the new card view by selecting either option here. Click this icon to show or hide the advanced filters. Filter easily by company and site! ## Firewall/Whitelisting Issues - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31016 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31016 - Category: Service Provider - Updated: 2023-04-11 If you are having any of the following problems, your company's IT security settings may be blocking your access to Wastebits: Can't log in, even when using the correct password You were supposed to receive an email to claim your account, but it didn't come through - even to your Spam box You downloaded a Wastebits-compatible browser, and still can't access the site You have entered the correct web address for your Wastebits portal, and still aren't able to log on If you have tried all of these troubleshooting measures and still can't access Wastebits, you may need to ask your IT Department to "whitelist" Wastebits. Provide your IT Department with the following information: In order for employees of your company to properly access and use Wastebits, you will need to ensure the following: 1) The employee(s) are using one of the following supported web browsers: Google Chrome (preferred) Microsoft Edge 2) Your company has the following domains whitelisted within North America and across your company's operating geographic region: Note: Make sure to whitelist both HTTP:// and HTTPS:// including the domains and sub-domains: *.wastebits.com *.cloudfront.net *.google-analytics.com *.honeybadger.io *.hotjar.com s3.amazonaws.com *.sendgrid.net * .intercom.io * .intercomcdn.com *.pusher.com *.localizecdn.com *.fontawesome.com 3) The employee(s) are able to receive emails from: *.wastebits.com (dedicated email IP Address 168.245.74.238) ## Custom Template Capabilities - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56368 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56368 - Category: Waste Streams - Updated: 2022-07-26 Wastebits allows custom waste profile templates, with a variety of field types already supported within the application. This article outlines the existing capabilities for customization that are available. Included Fields No matter the custom fields your waste stream template includes, there are a few that are included by default. Waste Stream Name* Facility Site* Generator Site* Billing Site Material Origin * required The above fields would constitute a bare-minimum waste stream. The types of fields that follow are able to be customized and added to this waste stream template to make it more complete. Address An address field will consist of a standard group of fields that constitute a United States, Canadian, or Mexican address. Autocomplete There are several types of autocompletes available within Wastebits: Container Type Autocomplete Common Name Autocomplete (allows multiple and user-input options) Listed Codes Autocomplete (allows multiple and forces a selection) Industry Codes Autocomplete Checkbox In Wastebits, checkboxes appear as toggles/switches to clearly show an on/off status. Several types of checkbox can be created within a waste stream template: Basic checkbox (defaults to false) A checkbox that defaults to true A checkbox that is required to be toggled before progressing A checkbox that includes an external link for more information A checkbox that reveals dependent fields below it (they are hidden until the toggle is checked). Date A date field shows a popup calendar and ensures valid formatting for a date entry. Dropdown Like checkboxes, there are several options available for dropdown menus: Two choices (such as "yes" and "no") A required dropdown that forces a selection before being allowed to progress A dropdown with an external link for more information A dropdown that shows dependent fields (or no further fields) based on what was selected. Note: while traditional dropdowns allow a single selection, it IS possible to create one that allows multiple selections. Group Fields can be grouped together under a heading to visually distinguish a section on a form. Information An information field is simply text added to a form in order to provide additional information. These can also include a link to external information if needed. List A list field can handle one or more items added to it (i.e. a constituents field). Here are the options for a list field: Text Only Text with a numeric value Text with a numeric range Constituents Customize your constituent measurement values. Shown here are a few examples of currently available options. If there are any additional options you would like to have but don't see here, we can get them added for you. Radio Radios are similar to select fields except they are all visible to the user and only one may be selected. As with some other fields, these can include a link and/or be required to progress. Range A range is a couple of numeric values that show an upper and lower end. There is also the option to include an "N/A" toggle that will remove the range from the form if it is not applicable. Shipping Name A shipping name changes from a text area to a builder (progressive fields appear as it is filled out) when the waste stream is considered DOT Hazardous (see two screenshots below as the option is toggled). ...and after toggling DOT Hazardous and selecting a couple items: Signature A signature field will stylize the text as it is typed in. Text A text input is the most basic type of entry, and can either be single line or multi-line (a text area). Here are some options: Basic single line Single line with a link A single line that is searchable within a list view of waste streams A single line that is unique across waste streams (duplication will cause an error) A single line that is masked (forces a format as they type, like a phone number) Text area Text area with help text Any text field can be made required Upload Upload fields can be for single files or multiple files, and can be restricted by file type or file size. User Select A user select is a text field that autocompletes with the name of a user that is part of the company or site (you can choose which scope to include in the search). Help Text Besides the information field type described above (which allows for plain text to be entered into the template) there are a couple more options for help text: Help text that appears below the field (example is in the text fields above) Tooltip popover text that appears when the mouse hovers over an icon. Limitations The waste stream template and the certification are created from templates, and are therefore customizable. Outside of those there are no customization available without requiring custom development. The print view will include all custom fields and allowed customizations to the template, but the general look/feel of the print template is not configurable. It is, however, possible to hide a certain field or fields from the print view if desired. Next Steps If you are interested in implementing custom templates for your waste streams, please contact us to discuss options and steps forward. ## How to Confirm a New Account - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29601 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29601 - Category: Users - Updated: 2022-07-07 A coworker or a representative of the Waste Facility has created an account for you, so what do you do next?

All Companies will require sites to be added to a Waste Stream or Manifest. You can think of Sites as different addresses that all roll up under the same parent Company. Navigate to the Appropriate Company Details Page For Your Own Company Click on your Company icon in the bottom left of your screen. For a Customer Company (As a Facility User) Click on the Companies icon in the left navigation Select the Customer you wish to add a site for (Any Company Type). For a Customer Company (As a Service Provider) Click on the Clients icon in the left navigation Select the Customer you wish to add a site for (Generators Only). Navigate to the Sites Page Within the Company Details page, click the Sites tab, and then Create a New Site. Fill Out the Form for a New Site Required fields will be marked with an asterisk*. Once you save the form, you can now select the Company and Site when creating a Waste Stream or Manifest. How to Create Companies and Sites From Within a Waste Stream Permissions for Creating Generator and Service Provider Companies & Sites Facility Users with the appropriate permissions are able to create both Companies and Sites from within a Waste Stream. Service Providers are able to create Sites for their Own Company or for their Authorized Client from within a Waste Stream. Generators with the appropriate permissions are able to create Sites for their Own Company from within a Waste Stream. Create the Company For Facility Users to create a new Company, simply type in the name and click the Create Company button when no matches are found. Enter information about the company on the form that appears and click the Add Company button when you are finished.

Enter all required fields on the form that appears and click Add Site. This Site will now appear on the current Waste Stream and will be available to add to future Waste Streams. If you are a Facility User that just finished creating a Company, you will be automatically prompted to create the new Site: One-Time Transporter Sites Transporter Sites created on a Waste Stream are for one-time use on the specific Waste Stream only to document preferred or approved Transporter contact information. There are no special permissions about who can create them, and users cannot be added to them. To create a one-time Transporter Site, simply type in the name of the new Site and click the Create One-Time Company button. You will have the option to add a Permit # and Expiration, but these fields are not required. Click Add Transporter to add this one-time Site to the Waste Stream. ## How Do I Reset My Password? - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29446 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29446 - Updated: 2022-05-04 If You are Already Logged In If you are currently logged in, click Your Name in the upper right of the screen.

In both of these cases, you will then be provided with a form to reset your password. ## Marking a Non-Hazardous Manifest as Received (For Facility Users) - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29482 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29482 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2022-05-04 While you can create and manage non-hazardous manifests 100% digitally, some users on the manifest may not be able to sign digitally, so the Facility must enter those signatures through the "Mark as Received" workflow. Mark as Received As the waste industry is continuing to move to full-digital solutions, the Wastebits system has been designed to enable every company involved with a non-hazardous manifest to create a user account, log in, and sign the manifest digitally (Service Providers too!). At times, a printed manifest is a convenient way to gather signatures without requiring digital signatures. In this scenario, the Waste Facility that receives the load has the ability to Mark as Received, entering all missing signatures and optionally uploading a PDF of the hand-signed manifest. Note: The rest of this tutorial applies only to what a Waste Facility user can see when managing Manifests. Draft Manifests If the manifest is still in Draft mode due to the Generator not signing it digitally, a Waste Facility user can mark it as prepared on the Generator's behalf. In order to mark it as prepared, go to Manifests > Click on the desired Manifest in the list > and click the Mark as Prepared option in the Actions dropdown. This will enable the Mark as Received workflow. Manifests with Missing Information If you receive a manifest that is missing any of the following information, you will need to edit the manifest to include that information before the Mark as Received option is available: Transporter Company Container Information Quantity Information Marking a Manifest as Received Once the manifest has reached the Prepared (The Facility user marked it as prepared) or Ready for Pickup (The Generator has signed it) statuses and any missing information has been added, you are now ready to mark the manifest as received. Navigate to the manifest you wish to Mark as Received and select that option from the Actions menu. After clicking Mark as Received, you will see a pop-up window that allows you to indicate any discrepancies from the digital manifest to the signed manifest (optional), enter the signatures on the printed Manifest, and upload the attachment of the printed Manifest (optional). Note: The Facility's Signature requires the signing user to have a Wastebits account. If the signatory on the manifest does not have an account, you will need to create one before being able to sign as that user. All other Signatures may be entered without an account. After filling out the information and providing an uploaded file, submit the form by clicking Mark Manifest as Received. Viewing the Signatures The Signatures tab of the Manifest Details page will now have records of the signatures and dates associated with the Manifest. Viewing the Document The scan of the paper Manifest is now accessible within the Manifest Details page by clicking in the Actions dropdown at the top of the page, as well as a link within the Details Tab next to Scan of Paper Manifest. Note: If you elected to not add a scan of the manifest at the time you marked it as received, you may do so in the future from the details page. Uploading a scanned Manifest is a convenient way to use a hybrid approach to digital manifesting that allows one or more parties involved with a Waste Manifest to sign a paper copy instead of logging in, while maintaining accurate digital records and all of the other benefits of a digital system. ## v7.1.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56353 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56353 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2022-02-24 Archiving Sites With this release, you are now able to archive Sites! Facility users may archive any Site they have access to, while Generators, Service Providers, and Transporters may archive their own Sites. Every Company must have at least one Site, so the last Site won't be able to be archived unless another one is created first. ## v7.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56261 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56261 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2022-02-24 Wastebits is excited to announce that we have a new feature for Hazardous Manifest and label creating! Reach out to us at sales@wastebits.com for pricing or a demo. Hazardous Waste Manifests Wastebits now has functionality to create Hazardous manifest files that you can print to your own dot matrix printer. Once the waste has been received, simply upload a copy of your signed manifests like normal for processing and submission to the EPA! Custom Waste Label Templates Do you have waste labels that you print over and over? Now with some one-time set up you can quickly create labels from your waste streams. ## v6.17 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56123 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56123 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-10-20 Bulk Add/Remove Service Providers on Waste Streams We often get requests from you to add Service Providers to Waste Streams of a newly authorized Client, and with this update we put that ability in your hands! Just follow these few steps: Navigate to the Company where Waste Streams need updated Click on the Service Providers tab Note: If the Service Provider does not appear in this list, follow these instructions to authorize them. Once the Service Provider is authorized, you will see new options in the menu to add or remove the Service Provider from Waste Streams. After selecting to add or remove the Service Provider from Waste Streams, you'll choose which Service Provider Site should be added, as well as which Site's Waste Streams the Service Provider needs added to: Note: Performing an add or remove will add an activity to all of the Waste Streams that were updated, allowing you to see in the compare view that the Service Provider was added. Recertified Waste Stream PDF & Print Previously when an Approved Waste Stream was recertified and submitted for renewal before expiring, there was no way to print a version of the Waste Stream that showed the recertification. With this release, we've included an option in the Actions menu to either view the PDF of the currently approved Waste Stream or of the recertified Waste Stream. Note: This option will only appear when there is both an actively approved Waste Stream and a recertified Waste Stream pending renewal. Additions to Certification View We heard from you that you wanted to see more details in the View Certification on a Waste Stream, so with this release we've included the Generator Name and Address; the Waste Stream name, ID, and external ID; and the Approval Number (if one exists). Fixes Read Only users weren't able to easily click into a Site to view its list of Waste Streams, so we got that working. The error wasn't displaying for invalid EPA IDs blocking saving updates to a Site, so we made sure it is showing now. ## v6.16 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56120 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56120 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-10-05 Updated Side Navigation In this release, we've made the side navigation more compact to ensure you always have easy access to the tools you need! Click on the arrows if you want to hide the menu entirely. As an added bonus, you can now select the color of your menu in your preferences! Fixes There were times that company and site filters weren't resetting, causing confusion when searching for Waste Streams. We made sure that those filters reset so that they don't affect search results on another page. Sometimes the "view as last approved" option on the Waste Stream wasn't resetting when moving onto viewing another, so we ensured that would refresh as expected. Duplicate external IDs on Sites weren't displaying an error, so we cleared that up. ## v6.15 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56113 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56113 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-09-08 Unlocked Sites Step We heard from you that you want more of a balance of flexibility with the regulatory controls in Wastebits. With this release, we've added in a little more flexibility and unlocked the sites step of the waste stream, even after it has been approved. Simply follow all of the same retract, edit, and approval workflows that you do now, but you'll be able to access the step to change the Generator, Service Provider, Transporter, and Billing details. Users List We heard from you that it can be confusing trying to determine what Company your customer is in without a global customer user list, so with this release we've included just that! Simply click the Users icon on the left panel and you'll now be able to search by name and email, see when the user last logged in, and more! Fixes Outbound Site Approvers didn't have a "My Company" button, so we added that in. There were times that list views weren't showing information even though it existed, so we made sure that was working again. ## v6.14 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56108 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56108 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-08-23 Waste Stream Update Capabilities With this release, we've included two new capabilities to help keep your Waste Stream information up to date. These features will be available to any Portal Company user with edit permissions. Update Waste Stream name at any time Do you have an approved Waste Stream that needs its name updated? You can now easily do this from the Waste Stream actions menu. If the Waste Stream hasn't been approved yet you'll simply be taken to the edit view. If it has been edited, a modal will pop up that will allow you to make any necessary changes. Have questions about changes? You'll see all name changes are tracked on the History tab. Update Company/Site information on Waste Streams We heard from you that when you've updated a Company or Site's name or details that there are times that you want those updates propagated to the Waste Streams as well. With this update, we've given you the option to do just that. Once you've edited a Company or Site, you'll now see an Actions box will appear. Select Update Waste Streams to propagate the changes that you've made to all Waste Streams in that Company or Site: Note: The Material Origin on the Waste Stream will not be affected when you select to Update Waste Streams. Updating the Material Origin will require an individual Waste Stream edit. Certification Date Added to Print Views With this release, both the Waste Stream and Approval PDFs will now show the date the Certification was submitted underneath of the signature. ## v6.13 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56098 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56098 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-08-11 Updates Facility Users will notice that the Companies icon in your left panel has been updated to Companies and Sites, so that you're able to search both lists. You can also search the sites list using an External ID. Characteristic Waste Codes no longer require a value to be entered into the PPM box in order to add another code. We added a manual entry option for the Shipping Description if the DOT Hazardous Waste builder doesn't give you all of the information you need. You're now able to add multiple Hazard Classes in the DOT Hazardous Waste builder. You can now search by a Site External ID when adding a Site to a Waste Stream (The Company must be selected first). Fixes Texas EPA IDs were causing an error when saving Sites, so we made sure that wouldn't be a problem anymore. Client requests for existing Companies couldn't be accepted, so we cleared that up. The browser's back button wasn't always taking you to the previous page, so we made sure that was working as expected again. Outbound Site Approver Users were getting an oops error opening the advanced filter in the Waste Stream list view, so we removed the fields that were causing that error. Reapprovals on currently Approved Waste Streams weren't able to be retracted, so we added that in. ## How to Authorize a Service Provider to a Generator Company - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29498 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29498 - Category: Companies and Sites - Updated: 2021-07-21 Both Facility Users and Generator Users can authorize access for a Service Provider Note: Facility and Generator Users have permissions to Authorize Service Providers to a Generator Company. These permissions are at the Company level and apply to all Generator Sites. Authorizing a Service Provider allows Users at that Company to: Access Waste Streams and Manifests they have been added to Create Waste Streams and Manifests on behalf of their customer Create new Generator Sites for their customer (SP Company Admins) There are two ways to authorize a Service Provider to a Generator Company: Assist the Service Provider Accept a Service Provider's request Assist the Service Provider (For Generators and Facility Users) Ensure you have created the Service Provider Company and Service Provider User before completing these steps. Go to the Service Provider Company As a Generator: Click on the Service Provider Icon on the left panel of your screen As a Facility User: Click on the Requests Icon on the left panel of your screen, then filter to your pending requests. Click Authorize a Service Provider Select the Service Provider Use the typeahead to select the Service Provider User you wish to Authorize. Once you have selected the user, click Authorize. This user will now appear in the list of Authorized Service Providers. Accept a Service Provider's Request (For Facility Users) Service Providers may request new Generator companies to be approved or rejected by members at the Facility Site that they select. Read more about this workflow here: Requesting Access to a Generator Company (For Service Providers). Navigate to the Request You can easily access pending requests via the Requests icon on the left panel of your screen Manage the Pending Request Pending requests will be highlighted in blue. Hover over the three dots to select whether you will accept or reject the request. Rejecting a Request If you select Reject, you will be prompted to enter a reason for the rejection and the request will be finalized. Accepting a Request If you accept the request, you will be given the option to match the request to an existing company or create a new company. Click Accept Request to finalize. The Service Provider will now have access to create Generator Sites, Waste Streams, and Manifests. ## Notes for Companies and Sites - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56090 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56090 - Category: Companies and Sites - Updated: 2021-07-21 Notes field for Companies and Sites We've noticed some clever uses of fields on Companies and Sites that led us to see that Wastebits users want a place to leave notes! You'll now notice a Notes text area that can be utilized by Facility members only - the customer won't be able to see anything you input here. To add a note, simply pull up the applicable Company or Site and click the Edit button. Once you save, Notes will be visible from the details view! Note: Facility Portal Admins, Site Admins, and Site Operators are able to add and edit notes. Facility Site Approvers and Read Only Users can view them but not make changes. Customers (Generators, Transporters, and Service Providers) will not see this information at all. ## v6.11 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56086 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/56086 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-07-21 Fixes Filtering on the Client Request list was not always accurately displaying. Facility Users weren't able to remove the EPA ID on Sites. Other Service Provider Managed Portal fixes. ## v6.10.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55913 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55913 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-07-21 New Portal/Facility User Features Waste Stream Tagging We've heard your feedback and know that there are times that you'd like to add a "sub-status" to a Waste Stream, or sometimes simply just mark it to come back to later. We're excited to introduce Waste Stream Tagging as a new feature that will help you do both of those things! Tags can be added from the details view of a Waste Stream, but are also visible from the list view once they've been added here. Easily remove them by clicking on the x. These tags can also be used to filter the list view. Simply open the advanced filtering options and select the tag you want to filter based upon. Updates to User and Client Authorization Requests Previously it was hard to find Client Authorization requests and sometimes they would get lost in the notification logs. With this update, we've pulled them into a shared list view with User Requests, simply called "Requests". With a few easy clicks you can now see and manage pending requests all from one place. Notes field for Companies and Sites We've noticed some clever uses of fields on Companies and Sites that led us to see that Wastebits users want a place to leave notes! You'll now notice a Notes text area that can be utilized by Facility members only - the customer won't be able to see anything you input here. To add a note, simply pull up the applicable Company or Site and click the Edit button. Once you save, Notes will be visible from the details view! Note: Facility Portal Admins, Site Admins, and Site Operators are able to add and edit notes. Facility Site Approvers and Read Only Users can view them but not make changes. Customers (Generators, Transporters, and Service Providers) will not see this information at all. Save as You Go on Creating Waste Streams We heard from you that it was frustrating not being able to save a Waste Stream as you go and that some users were losing their work. With this update you will be able to save a Waste Stream any time after the required fields have been filled out. You'll see (1) your last saved time in the toolbar. When you're ready to exit the edit view, either click (2) Cancel from any screen or (3) Save from the Review & Save step. Updates to Downloading Email Attachments We made some updates to the way attachments will download from Wastebits emails. Now when you click a link to download a file, you will be taken to log into Wastebits if you're not already. With this change, download links in your email will not expire! Fixes Cloning Non-Haz Manifests was automatically sending an email with an attachment of the Manifest. We cleaned this up so that a single Manifest will not generate an email, but you can still decide to have an email sent when generating two or more Manifests. Some of the fields on Scale Tickets were acting up, so we made sure everything was smooth there. v6.10.1 Portals with only one Site couldn't create Scale Tickets. The new Client Requests list needed some TLC. ## v6.6.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55465 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55465 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-07-21 New User Type: Facility Read-Only Do you have users in your portal that you want to give access to view your Waste Streams and add Comments, but ensure that they're not able to edit company or waste stream details, create users, etc.? With the new Read Only user type for Facilities you can do just that. For more information about creating new users, see these instructions. Updates based on your feedback! Accepting a New User Request Facility Users: We've heard from you that it is difficult when you have to re-type in the company address when a customer requests an account, so with this update we've made that information pre-populate into the form for you! Cloning a Waste Stream when the Company or Site details have been updated When updating a Company or Site, Wastebits makes sure to never retroactively change those details on existing Waste Streams. However - we heard from you that when you clone, you'd like the most up to date information for the Company or Site to be what's added to the Waste Stream. With this update we did just that! You no longer need to remove then re-add the company to a cloned Waste Stream to make the new information appear. Confusing Waste Stream history activities and notifications There were some activities in the Waste Stream history as well as notifications that referred to the Approval, and we heard from you that these were confusing. With this release we updated these to clarify that they're related to the Waste Stream. Fixes v6.6.1 Clones weren't functioning, so we got that cleared up. ## Service Provider Managed Portals - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55571 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/55571 - Updated: 2021-06-09 Portals managed by a Service Provider company look and feel a little different than the typical Wastebits portal. In this article, we'll describe some of the differences to help you understand how your Service Provider portal works! The Concept of Inbound and Outbound Both Companies and Waste Streams can be considered Inbound. Inbound (IB) Waste Streams are filled out by the Portal Company’s customer (either a Service Provider or a Generator) and are submitted to a TBD Facility for Portal Company review and processing. Both Companies and Waste Streams can be considered Outbound. Outbound (OB) Waste Streams are cloned from an Inbound Waste Stream by a Portal Company user (any of the Facility user types that have 'Waste Stream create' permissions can do this). The TBD facility is removed, and a vendor Destination Facility is added. Inbound/Outbound Company Set Up Companies can be designated as Inbound or Outbound via a toggle on the Company details page. Creating Customer Companies and Sites (Inbound) This process will be largely the same as other portals, with the exception of the inbound/outbound selection. Select inbound on a Company you'll add customers to, and also add to inbound Waste Streams. If the company is a Generator that will have a Service Provider authorized to it, this is the version of the company that SP should be authorized to. An outbound version of Customer Companies and Sites can be created. You will not add the customer to these Companies or Sites. This company will be added to outbound Waste Streams as a placeholder in the Generator section. Creating Vendor Portal Company Sites (Outbound) As new vendors need to be added, Portal Admin users have the ability to create new Portal Company Sites. Go to My Company → Sites → Create New Site and remember to select Outbound as the type. Waste Streams A Waste Stream is determined as Inbound or Outbound by the Facility selection. Inbound Waste Streams are filled out by the Portal Company’s customer and submitted to an Inbound Facility for Portal Company review and processing. Outbound Waste Streams are cloned from an IB by a Portal Company user (any of the Facility user types that have Waste Stream create permissions can do this). The TBD facility is removed, and a vendor Destination Facility is added. Putting it All Together StepDescription1Create Inbound Waste StreamWho: A Customer (Generator or Service Provider of an Inbound Company) What: The customer creates and submits a Waste Stream to an IB Facility. 2Create Outbound Waste StreamWho: A Broker Site User (of the Portal Company)What: Users will clone the inbound Waste Stream, then remove all IB companies (Facility, Generator, SP) and replace them with OB companies. Users will certify as an Authorized agent to allow for an approval by the selected Destination Facility. 3Approve Inbound Waste StreamOnce the user at the Destination Facility has approved the outbound Waste Stream, the Broker Site User will approve the Inbound Waste Stream so that the Customer is aware their Waste Stream has been approved. ## What Do Various User Types Mean? - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29448 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29448 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2021-06-09 Not sure what Role you want to select when you add a new User?

To access the new list view... Navigate to your Waste Streams then click on the Take a Look button in the purple banner: New List View Features In this section we'll describe the features available in the new list view! The status filter will enable you to filter Waste Streams by Draft, Submitted, Approved, Expiring, etc. just like you did before. The search bar functions just as before, where you can search for any keyword that appears on the Waste Stream cards or listview items. The sort function allows you to sort based on any number of items such as when the waste stream was last updated or the companies on the Waste Stream. The sort arrow allows you to sort either ascending or descending based on the sort option you selected in #3. Switch between the new list view and the new card view by selecting either option here. Click this icon to show or hide the advanced filters. Filter easily by company and site! Want to switch back? You can easily toggle back and forth between the old view and the new version via the Take a Look! button in the list view, or if you've cleared the purple bar you can change your settings at any time in your User Preferences: Let us know what you think! We'd love to hear your feedback on our new list view. Fixes Approval numbers for some Waste Streams were showing in email notifications before they were approved, so we made sure that any email notifications for Draft and Submitted Waste Streams do not have approval numbers displayed. We made some tweaks to make integrating to our API run smoother. Some users were unable to create new Sites, so we got that issue cleared up. Some drop down menus were overlapping making it confusing to make selections, so we got those working properly. ## Add a Service Provider to a Waste Stream - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29512 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29512 - Category: Service Provider - Updated: 2021-04-06 Go to Waste Streams Click the Waste Streams Icon, then select Create Waste Stream. Select the Facility and Waste Type (1) Select the Destination Facility Site for your waste. (2) Select what type of Waste you are submitting. What is available in this list may vary based on what is available in your Portal as well as what Facility you have selected. (3) Give a name to your Waste Stream. This will be something that you can use to search for in the list view. Add other Companies to the Waste Stream After you select the Generator Company and Site, you will see a button that will allow you to add up to two Service Providers. After clicking the +Service Provider button you will be able to select Companies and Sites the same way that you did with the Generator and Facility. Adding Service Providers here will give users in those Companies and Sites access to this Waste Stream specifically. Select the Billing Company You will notice once you've added Service Provider(s) to a Waste Stream that they now appear as an option in the Billing Site selection. Finish the Form and Save Follow the steps on the Waste Stream creation form and click Save. When you navigate to your Waste Stream list view in the future, you will see that these Waste Streams have the Service Provider icon. Continue through the rest of the details on the form and click Save. This waste stream will now be visible to all included Companies (except for Transporters). ## Updating Your (Or Your Customer's) Notification Settings - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30873 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30873 - Category: Users - Updated: 2021-04-06 All users have the ability to set their own notification settings, but Facility Users also have the option to assist their customers by updating their notification settings for them. Notification Settings In-App notifications will always be set to on. Email notifications can be set to send Frequently, Daily, or Never. You won’t receive email notifications for those already marked as read within the app. Frequent: To prevent the inbox from overflowing, we will bundle notifications together if they happen within a few minutes of each other. Daily: You will receive a nightly digest that bundles all of the notifications for that day. Never: You will never receive email notifications for Waste Stream Approvals and comments. Accessing Your Personal Notifications Page Access your Notifications settings via Your Preferences in your user menu in the upper right hand corner: Accessing Your Customer's Notifications Page (For Facilities) Portal Administrators and Facility Site Managers may view and update their customer's notifications settings by: Clicking on Companies icon Selecting the appropriate Company Clicking on the Users tab Selecting the appropriate User Clicking on the Notifications tab ## Managing User Account Requests - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31535 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31535 - Category: Users - Updated: 2021-04-06 Wastebits has released many tools to enable Facilities to manage their customers Companies, Sites, and Users, but what if a new customer stumbles onto your log-in page without an account? This feature will give those Users an opportunity to request an account right from your Portal log-in page. Users Requesting an Account Users requesting an account will be asked for: Their name and contact information Their company name, address, and type The disposal Facility Site(s) they work with the most often. (This selection will be used to determine which Facility Users will be notified of the request). If the user doesn't know what Facility Site(s) they will work with the most often, they will be able to indicate this and select a Facility based on location. Upon completing the form, the user will receive a confirmation email at the address they submitted. What if the user requesting an account already has one, and has just forgotten? If the user requesting an account already has one, they will receive an email with instructions on how to log into their account(s). If they've forgotten their password, they will be able to reset it from the login page. What if the user sends multiple requests? If a user submits a duplicate request, Facility users will see record of the duplicate requests and the user will receive an email notifying them that their initial request is still being processed. Processing User Requests Notifications for account requests will be sent to Facility users (that have notifications enabled in their settings) at the locations that the user selected when they requested their account. However, any Facility user can access the list of requests via the User Requests icon on the left hand panel of your portal. Requests that still need to be processed will be highlighted in blue. Use the menu (indicated with three dots) to select whether to accept or reject the request. Accepting a Request If you choose to accept a request, you will be given the option to add the user to an existing Company, or create a new Company if it does not already exist. Add to an existing Company If the user has requested access to a Company that already exists, select it from the suggested company matches, then click Next. Create a New Company To create a new Company, type in the new Company name in the search bar and click the Create Company button when a match is not found. Select Permissions You will then be able to select whether the new User should be a Company Admin or a Site Admin. Company Admin: If you select Company Admin, you're all set! Simply click the Accept Request button to finish. Site Admin: If you select Site Admin, you'll be given an additional screen to select which Sites the user should have access to. You'll be able to create the Sites if they do not already exist. Once you've selected all sites the new user should have access to, click the Accept Request button to finish. Rejecting a Request If you choose to reject a request, you will be required to enter a reason for rejection. That reason will be visible from within the list view and will be sent to the customer in the email that notifies them their request was rejected. User Request Statuses Pending: These requests will be highlighted in blue. They are awaiting review by a Facility user. Approved: These requests were processed by Facility personnel. An email was sent to the user requesting the account giving them instructions to claim the account. Rejected: These requests were processed by Facility personnel. An email was sent to the user requesting the account informing them that their request was rejected and the reason for rejection. Deleted: Requests are automatically deleted when a user with that email address already exists. Users submitting these requests will receive an email with instructions on how to log into their account. ## Uploading a Waste Stream Certification (For Facility Users) - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31042 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31042 - Category: Waste Streams - Updated: 2021-04-06 There are times when the Generator or Service Provider wishes to sign a paper copy of the Waste Stream instead of signing digitally. In this scenario, the Waste Facility User that receives the Waste Stream has the ability to upload that User's paper certification in order to submit the Waste Stream for Approval.  Go to the Waste Stream Approval Tab Click Upload Certification & Submit on the Approvals tab of the appropriate Waste Stream. Select to Certify as the Generator or Service Provider Select which user signed the paper copy of the Waste Stream that you wish to upload. Note: Service Provider will only be an option on this step if a Service Provider company has been added to the Waste Stream. Add the Certification Information On Behalf Of: If the person who signed the paper Waste Stream is a user in the system, you can select their user to ensure they are properly recorded in the system. Selecting a user in this box is not required. Signature: Type in the signature as it appears on the paper Waste Stream. Date: Select the date that the paper copy was signed Scan of Paper Waste Stream: A scan of the paper Waste Stream is required as proof that the individual signed the Waste Stream. Click Upload Certification & Submit. The Waste Stream will now be in submitted status and is ready to be approved. ## Archive & Delete Waste Streams and Manifests - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31497 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31497 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2021-04-06 Archive and Delete Waste Streams and Manifests Is a Waste Stream or Manifest no longer needed? Facility users now have the option to Archive it, regardless of the status. All other users can Archive Waste Streams and Manifests that are in Draft status. This will Archive the Waste Stream or Manifest for everyone. How to Archive Open the Waste Stream or Manifest that you wish to Archive. In the Actions menu, select Archive. Enter the reason you are archiving, then click the Archive button. Access Archived Items to Unarchive or Delete Access archived items via the icon on left. From here, you can: Unarchive Delete permanently - this action cannot be undone. ## How do I log in to Wastebits? - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31289 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31289 - Category: Service Provider - Updated: 2021-04-06 This article will tell you how to login when you don't remember your portal URL.

Over the past year, we've made changes to Wastebits that enable you to configure the Waste Stream to fit your needs. In this release, we've added two more customization options. Certification Text You now have the option in your template to update the certification language to your specific needs on all new waste streams moving forward. Existing Waste Streams would not be automatically updated, to ensure an accurate record is kept. External ID With this update, you can choose to add an External ID field to your Waste Stream template for Facility users to enter IDs from other systems you manage. If you're interested in learning more about customizable Waste Stream options, please reach out to us at sales@wastebits.com or the form here. Fixes Some Facility Users were getting stuck accepting a Service Provider client request when there was a duplicate address. We made sure that everything was working properly on this form. v6.4.1 Certain searches were clearing the first letter when typing, so we made sure that wouldn't happen. Some users were getting stuck certifying on behalf of the generator, so we made sure that the documents would upload properly. v6.4.2 Some rejected profiles were showing a Draft status on the Print view, so we made sure the status was being displayed correctly. We cleared up an issue that was causing an error to display where the active approval should be. v6.4.3 Previously selected disposal methods on the approval were displaying, so we made sure they could be removed. v6.4.4 We resolved an issue where certain Waste Stream fields were displaying dashes in the details view instead of the actual details. v6.4.5 We cleared up an issue causing Waste Stream prints to not function. v6.4.6 Daylight savings time was causing approvals within a certain window to select the previous date, so we enabled that selection to account for daylight savings time. ## v6.3.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33909 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33909 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-02-22 Site clean up tools We've added even more tools - merging and bulk moving Sites - to help you clean up your location/address data. If you think you could use one of these services, please contact Support for assistance at help@wastebits.com. Updates to create Waste Stream workflow Over the past year, we've made changes to Wastebits that enable you to configure the Waste Stream to fit your needs. In this release, we modified the flow of creating a Waste Stream that will make even more waste stream template customization possible. You'll notice that when you create a new Waste Stream, the first questions you're asked are the Facility and the Waste Type. This update allows everything else on your Waste Stream to be configured based on those two questions, giving us even more flexibility in helping you build the Waste Stream workflow you want! Configurable file upload field Is there a form you always require to be submitted with the Waste Stream? With this update, you'll be able to add customized upload fields to your Waste Stream template, directing your customers specifically to upload those particular documents. Fixes v6.3.1 Options to edit or expire the approval were missing, so we got those added back in. v6.3.2 We cleaned up some issues around adding/removing Service Provider companies and adding Companies with only one Site to a Waste Stream v6.3.3 Users were unable to select a Billing Company when the Generator only had one site, so we cleared that up. v6.3.4 Waste Stream histories were mixed, so we got them back in chronological order. ## v6.2.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33901 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/33901 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2021-01-12 Service Provider Request Updates We updated this workflow to display the addresses for companies that are a potential match to help you make the right selection. Read more about this feature here. New User Request Updates We made it easier for Facility users to match clients requesting accounts by adding Site information to the matching tool. Read more about this feature here. Other Pounds has been added as a unit of measure in the Shipping section of Profiled Waste Streams Bales (BL) and Rolls (RO) have been added as a container type in the Shipping section of Profiled Waste Streams ## Updating your Customer's Account Access (For Facilities) - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31681 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31681 - Category: Users - Updated: 2020-12-18 When working with your customers, you may find any of the following. Your customer may... Have access to a site that they don't need Not have access to a site that they do need Need full Admin permissions to all sites in the Company Have full Admin permissions to a Company but only need a few Sites Luckily this information is easy to update at any time. Navigate to the Customer Go to Companies Find the Company of the User, and click on the Users tab Click on the name of the User that you need to update Make the Updates Click on Edit User Update the Settings If you scroll down in the edit view, you will see a Role selection. From here you can select whether the user should be a Company or Site Admin, and if they are a Site Admin you can select individually which sites they should have access to. Click Save to lock in your changes. Note: See this article if you need more information about User Roles. ## v6.1.0 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31671 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31671 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-12-16 Delete Companies Do you have a Company in Wastebits that has no sites and you no longer use it, or maybe it was created accidentally? With this release you can now reach out to support to request that these Companies be deleted. Site Activities With our previous release we added the ability for you to see activities on Companies. With this release we've extended that feature to Sites as well. You'll now be able to easily see what changed on a Site and when by simply navigating to the Site and clicking on the History tab (similar to viewing history on a Waste Streams). Fixes We’ve fixed an issue where expired Waste Streams were showing as Approved in the Waste Stream list view, and we will continue to monitor for any other issues. We noticed in some of the Site moves that Service Providers weren't appropriately being reassigned to their clients under the new Company, so we made sure that was working properly. ## v5.13 and v5.14 Patch Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31557 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31557 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-11-12 What's New in Wastebits Updated Document Attachment Types We received feedback that "My Company Only" Documents were confusing, and important Documents weren't made available to all necessary parties on a Waste Stream. To help, we removed "My Company Only" Documents from everyone except for Facility Users. This way, Facility Users will always be able to access any Documents on a Waste Stream. Fixes This is a new section in the release notes where we'll update you on fixes for any features that weren't working as expected. We'll continue to update this page as additional fixes are released: v5.14.6 Some of the Waste Stream list view filters were pulling results from previous approvals instead of just the current ones, so we tweaked the displays to help with that. Changing the Facility on a cloned Waste Stream was causing some issues with saving, so we made sure that wouldn't keep happening. v5.14.2 & 5.14.3 There were some issues with moving past the Material Origin on certain Waste Streams so we cleared up those issues v5.13.10 Issues with approving client requests Certain Generators on cloned Waste Streams were hard to clear Difficulty with triggering add site button within a Waste Stream v5.13.8 Certain Waste Streams weren't displaying as expected and couldn't generate PDFs v5.13.7 Users were unable to save edits to certain Waste Streams. The Industrial Waste question showed "Yes" on the PDF when the information entered was a "No" v5.13.6 Address and contact information for Companies wasn't appearing in the detail view of a Waste Stream In-App notification pagination wasn't working properly Special characters were being cleared from the search bar v5.13.5 Certification Signatures weren't populating on the Waste Stream print view ## v5.16 Patch Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31630 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31630 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-11-12 v5.16.6 We made some tweaks to make sure the reconciliation process for Hazardous Manifests continued to be precise. v5.16.5 Some users were having issues creating Comments, so we cleared that up. v5.16.4 User searches were struggling when entering both a first and last name, so we made sure that was working. We clarified some of the warning messaging in Waste Streams so that it would make more sense. Sometimes the Create New Company button wasn't showing up with new user requests, so we figured out what was going on there. v5.16.3 We increased the file size that you can upload on a Waste Stream to 100 MB We allowed for zip files to be attached to Waste Streams v5.16.2 There were times that the detail view on the regulatory section wasn't displaying what was selected on the toggles, so we made sure that was showing up. Some Waste Streams had approval numbers in the list view before the approval had taken place, so we removed those. v5.16.1 Some exports were blank, so we made sure the data was showing up on the downloads. Some of the Transporter information wasn't showing up when creating Manifests, so we got it all to display again. ## Updating an Existing Non-Hazardous Manifest - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29571 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29571 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2020-11-09 Signatures can affect whether a manifest can be edited. Navigate to the Manifest Select the Manifests icon in the left navigation Select the Manifest Click on the appropriate Manifest, then the Edit Manifest button. A few things to note here: After you sign a manifest, you will no longer be able to edit it. If the Generator has signed the Manifest and notices a change that needs to be made, a Facility User will have to update it. Received manifests cannot be edited. If the manifest needs to be edited before Marking it as Received, those changes should be made first. Manifests can be deleted up until the point that the Generator has signed. ## v5.16 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31601 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31601 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-10-12 What's New in Wastebits Here's what's new in Wastebits, coming the week of October 12, 2020: Service Providers can now save Draft Waste Streams without authorization to a Generator Client How changes to a Company or Site's details affect the Waste Stream list view Updated site selection for Site Admin users C&D waste type selection clarification Fixes Service Providers can now save Draft Waste Streams without authorization to a Generator Client We heard from you that there are times that Service Providers need to set up a new Waste Stream quickly before they have been authorized to their Generator client. With this update, Service Providers will be able to save a draft of a Waste Stream without a Generator selected, follow the client request workflow, and update/submit the Waste Stream later once the client request has been approved. Note: In order to officially submit the Waste Stream for Approval, the following will need to occur: Create and save Draft without Generator selected Submit request for Generator Client (via the form or directly with your Facility contact) Receive authorization Edit the Waste Stream to include the newly authorized Client Company and Site Submit for approval How changes to a Company or Site's details affect the Waste Stream list view When details on a Company or Site (i.e. the name, address, etc.) are updated, the data on existing Waste Streams for that Company/Site are not changed to ensure historic accuracy of the approval. With this update, we're ensuring that the Waste Stream list view detail will match what is listed on the Waste Stream. Because of maintaining this historical accuracy, when you click through to a company's detail view you may see different information than what is listed on the Waste Stream. Look for updates in the future around the ability to easily update company information on the Waste Streams when desired. Site Selection Updates We added some functionality to the selection of Sites when creating a User. Now you'll be able to: See the address of the Site Search by the ID of the Site C&D waste type selection clarification We heard from you that it was confusing to have non-friable asbestos as an example of a C&D Waste Stream, because in some locations this waste is profiled. To clear things up, we removed that example and added "Demolition Project" instead. Fixes When editing a parent company, the addresses were being cleared. We made sure this wouldn't keep happening. Some Facilities were showing the Manifest feature even though it wasn't available, so we made sure it got removed from those Sites. Notifications for Comments that were edited to include @mentions weren't being sent, so we got those going again. Buttons to export data were showing up in the wrong places at times, so we got that cleaned up. We continued to tune up the filters and searching in the Waste Stream list view. ## v5.15.2 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31596 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31596 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-09-29 Retracting Submitted Waste Streams We heard from you that Facility Site Admins and Facility Approvers wanted the ability to Retract a Waste Stream submission instead of having to reject it, so with this release you'll be able to do just that! Remember: Retracted submissions will need to be recertified and submitted again to be approved, so be sure to do one of the following after the changes have been made: Leave a Comment for the Generator or Service Provider reminding them to submit Upload a signed copy of the Waste Stream to submit ## v5.15 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31591 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31591 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-09-25 Waste Stream List View - Billing Column Added We heard from many of you that the most helpful column to add to the list view of Waste Streams, so we added that in! You're also able to sort this field if desired. Ability to More Easily Search by Approval ID Previously if you searched for a specific Approval ID, you'd get many results that were similar to that ID but it may be hard to find the exact Waste Stream you were looking for. With this update, we tweaked the search functionality on the ID columns to make them more precise so that it's easier to find your Profile. ## v5.14 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31570 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31570 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-09-10 Material Origin We heard from you that sometimes the Material Origin address is different from the Generator Site address, so with this update we've made a specific section for you to enter Material Origin. Now when creating a new Waste Stream or editing an old one, the next step after adding your Companies and Sites is to enter a Material Origin. If the Material Origin information is the same as the Generator Site (displayed in the box below) simply select Yes and the information will be automatically filled. If the Material Origin information is different than the Generator Site address, select No and you'll be able to type in the information one-time for this Waste Stream only (a new Generator Site will not be created). Approval Numbers added to List View Previously Approval Numbers didn't appear in the Waste Stream list view unless a Waste Stream was in an Approved status. With this update, the last applicable Approval Number will always show in the list view, regardless of the status of the Waste Stream. ## Transporter Start-Up Guide - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29613 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29613 - Category: Most Popular - Updated: 2020-08-27 Everything you need to know about Non-Hazardous Manifests as a Transporter.

To learn more about the statuses these Manifests are in, see these notes: Non-Hazardous Manifest Statuses. The most important status to you as a Transporter will be Ready for Pickup. This will indicate that the Generator has signed the manifest and the waste is ready to be transported. Sign the Manifest Once you've received the waste, you're now ready to digitally sign the manifest. This will change the status of the manifest to In Transit, and indicate to all parties on the Manifest that you are now transporting the waste. Questions?

This feature will give those Users an opportunity to request an account right from your Portal log-in page. Users requesting an account will be asked for: Their name and contact information Their company name, address, and type The disposal Facility location(s) they work with the most often. Facility Site Operators will receive in-app notifications for the requests, but all other Facility Users can view the list of request in the application via the User Requests icon on the left panel: To read more about this feature, see our support article here. Generator Non-Hazardous Manifest Signature Update Previously in Non-Hazardous Manifesting, Wastebits required that Service Provider Company Users be Authorized individually to have access to sign Manifests on behalf of the Generator. With this update, any users in the Generator or Service Provider Company will have access to sign the Manifest for the Generator Company. Improved Waste Stream Search and Sorting We've updated the Waste Stream list view to allow for searching and sorting by any of the columns in the list view to make it easier to find the Waste Streams you're looking for. We plan to roll out this feature to other list views in Wastebits in the future. Other added to Approved Volume Options We added an "Other" option to the list of volumes on an approval for the times that the list of options doesn't meet your approval needs. Fixes This is a new section to our release notes where we'll be updating you on any features that weren't working as expected that we implemented fixes for. This week we have a few items to update you on: Links to and from cloned Waste Streams were missing, so we added them back in. You weren't able to archive a Hazardous manifest when it was in the reconciliation status, so we got that working again. Sometimes the Billing Site on a Waste Stream wouldn't clear when the Generator was cleared, so we made sure to clear both at the same time (unless the Billing Site is the Service Provider). ## How to Translate Wastebits into French or Spanish - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31506 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31506 - Updated: 2020-07-31 Select Your Language To select a French or Spanish translation of Wastebits: (1) Go to Your Preferences (2) Click the General tab (3) Select your Default Language (4) Click Save Translation Services Not Available in your Portal? Let us know that you're interested our multi-lingual support, and we'll discuss options for enabling this feature for you and your customers. ## How to Create a New Customer Company - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30984 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30984 - Category: Companies and Sites - Updated: 2020-07-30 Need to create a new company for a Generator, Service Provider, or Transporter? Have a customer that is more than one of these types of companies? This article is for you. Note: These instructions apply to Facility Users only. Navigate to Companies and Create Company Click on the Companies icon in the left navigation, then select Create Company. Select the Company Type The most important step in creating a new customer company is determining what type the company should be. You can select just one type for your company, or it can be two or three types: Generator companies may be selected on Waste Streams and Manifests in the Generator section as well as the Bill-to. Transporter companies may be selected on Waste Streams (but Transporter Users will not have access to the Waste Stream). They may also be added to Manifests (Transporter users will have access to the Manifest). Service Provider companies may be selected on Waste Streams and Manifests as well as the Bill-to. Complete the form and click Save. Note: You have the ability to edit the company type if needed: You can always add company types if one is missing. So if you had previously selected Transporter for a company but realize that it's also a Service Provider, you can add that. If your company hasn't been used as a certain type, you'll be able to remove that type from the company. So if your company is a Generator and you accidentally selected Transporter as well, but have never used it as a Transporter, you'll be able to remove that type. Next Steps Create Site(s) All Companies will require sites to be added to a Waste Stream or Manifest. You can think of sites as different addresses that all roll up under the same parent company. Follow these instructions to create Sites.

This release contains: Place Approved Waste Streams on Hold when a Document is added Additions to Updated Date in the Waste Stream listview Place Approved Waste Streams on Hold when a Document is added We heard from you that oftentimes Documents being added to a Waste Stream after approval will require additional review to determine if the detail in the Documents affects whether or not the waste should still be approved, so we made the following updates: When a Waste Stream is in the Approved status and... ...An All Companies Document is added - the Waste Stream will automatically go On Hold and require a new Certification and Submission for Facility approval. ...A Facility & Billing Companies Document is added - the Waste Stream will automatically go On Hold and require a new Certification and Submission for Facility approval. ...An Only My Company Document is added - the Waste Stream will remain Approved. The only exception to the automatic On Hold status is for users with Approval permissions (Facility Portal Admin, Site Admin, Site Approver). These users will have the option to place the Waste Stream On Hold to request the Generator or Service Provider to recertify and submit. Additions to Updated Date in the Waste Stream listview Previously there were limited activities that would cause the Waste Stream "Updated" date to refresh. With this release, we've also included the following items that will modify the Updated date: Comments created and edited Documents added and removed Waste Streams approved and reapproved Waste Streams certified and recertified ## Generator Start-Up Guide - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30889 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/30889 - Updated: 2020-07-20 Everything you need to know about Profiled Waste Streams as a Generator.

If the Waste Stream has been added to a Manifest, only the Waste Description will be editable. If you need to change Company information, you should create a new Waste Stream. Waste Streams that have been edited to a Manifest are not able to be deleted. Any changes that you make to a Waste Stream will only affect new Manifests. Manifests that already have the Waste Stream will not be changed. ## Create a Non-Hazardous Manifest for your Client (For Service Providers) - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29517 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/29517 - Category: Manifests - Updated: 2020-06-30 Step-by-step guide to completing a Manifest Once you have been Authorized to act on behalf of your Generator client, you are now ready to start creating Waste Streams and Manifests on their behalf.

The Billing field will allow you to select any Site from the Generator or either Service Provider. Billing Contact Knowing who to reach out to for questions about payment on Waste Streams is vital information, so we added a Contacts field specifically to the Billing Company to assist. Freeform Contact Entry Being able add an existing User as a Contact to a Waste Stream is great for quick look up, but what if your Contact isn’t already a User? With this update, Contact information can be manually added when the User doesn’t already exist in the system. Print Approval Easily print an Approval Form for the current or historical versions of a Waste Stream. Navigate to the Waste Stream you want to print an Approval Form for and click on the Approvals tab. Use the menu (indicated with three dots) to select Print.

What's New in Wastebits Wastebits has just been updated! This release contains: Waste Type selection update Select which Documents carry over when Cloning a Waste Stream Ability for Portals to choose different feature sets per Facility Site Waste Type selection update We listened to you and we heard that the drop-down to select a Waste Type that will lead you to either a Profiled or Non-Profiled Waste Stream was confusing, so we updated the options to make them clearer! The options in the drop down will now be: MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) Example: Trash or Garbage C&D (Construction & Debris) Example: Non-Friable Asbesos Other (Profiled Waste) Example: Universal, Special or Hazardous Waste; or Friable Asbestos Select which Documents carry over when Cloning a Waste Stream Previously all Documents on a cloned Waste Stream would be copied to the new Waste Stream. This made it so that an extra step would have to take place to go in and delete any Documents that did not apply to the new Waste Stream. With this release, you now have the option to select which Documents you want to be copied to the new Waste Stream, eliminating that extra step! Ability for Portals to choose different feature sets per Facility Site Do you operate a Waste Facility that has multiple locations? Are some of the Wastebits Features like digital non-hazardous manifesting or scale ticketing only needed for a few of your sites? With this update you can now subscribe to the specific Wastebits Features that are beneficial to each of your sites instead of making these available to all sites within your Portal. ## v5.9 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31169 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31169 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-04-13 What's New in Wastebits Wastebits has just been updated! This release contains: Sites for all company type Billing Company selection and print view Sites for All Company Types Facilities and Generators have always had sites, but now Service Providers and Transporters do as well! You can think of this update as the ability to have as many addresses as you need per company. Users in these companies can now be Admins (have access to all addresses/locations) or Site Admins (have access to specific addresses/locations only), just like Generator and Facility users. Billing Company Selection and Print View Previously it was not possible to select a different Generator Site as the Billing address on a Waste Stream. With this update, you can select any site from the Generator or Service Provider (if applicable) as the Billing Site. The Site that you select will be displayed on the PDF of the Waste Stream. ## v5.8 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31160 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31160 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-03-10 What's New in Wastebits Wastebits has just been updated! This release contains: Ability to update company types County field on US addresses Update Company Types Customer companies have the option to be any combination of three types: Generator, Service Provider, and Transporter. Read more about these company types here. Previously the company type would lock in as soon as you used the company on a Waste Stream or Manifest, or created a company site. With this update, you'll be able to make the following changes: You can always add company types if one is missing. So if you had previously selected Transporter for a company but realize that it's also a Service Provider, you can add that. If your company hasn't been used as a certain type, you'll be able to remove that type from the company. So if your company is a Generator and you accidentally selected Transporter as well, but have never used it as a Transporter, you'll be able to remove that type. County Field on Addresses Fields for County are now available on all US addresses throughout the application! They will appear any time an address is in a print view as well. ## v5.6 Release Notes - URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31109 - Canonical URL: https://wastebits.com/support/doc/31109 - Category: Technical Release Notes - Updated: 2020-01-20 What's New in Wastebits v5.6 Wastebits has just been updated!
