Does openEFM send out notifications when filings are processed?
Yes, as long as the filer includes their email address. openEFM will send simple, E-Mail messages which notify the filing party of the acceptance or rejection of their documents. In order for this feature to function properly the EFSP must adhere to some specific requirements regarding populated data elements in the Legal XML filing. Specifically, a FiledByParty role type must be included in the FilingInformation element. The Actor Id of the the FiledByParty must match an Actor Id used to identify the parties involved in the case. Finally, that identified actor must have the email address element populated.
