Creating calls (NC)

​

Shape

NC <TYPE> <ADDRESS> [@UNIT] [!STATUS] [RP=name] [PH=phone] [PRI=n] [NARR=text] ["quoted narrative"]

• TYPE — Shortcode mapped in admin to an incident type (e.g. BURG, MED).
• ADDRESS — Greedy text until a keyword or trigger; geocoding uses your org’s address services when configured.
• @UNIT — Assign one or more units; !STATUS immediately after a unit applies to that unit (default dispatched if omitted).
• Quoted narrative — Text in double quotes anywhere on the line is stored as call narrative / notes (same idea as NARR=, often easier to type). Example: NC BURG 456 MAIN ST PRI=2 @351 !Enroute "Someone kicked in the back door".

​
