Registration Form


Before you can perform any NZTA checks within your webSAM system, you will need to fill in the application form. We use this to validate and authorise your access to the data (for example, we can only provide 'full owner" details to businesses with a valid RMVT number).


Click the Registration Form button to open the Registration Form, once you have completed this form it will be submitted to our admin team, and they will email you to let you know when it has been processed and they have set up your access to the NZTA data.



You can continue with the setup any time, however, the NZTA data checks will work correctly after you have been informed by our admin team that your access has been granted.



Setup NZTA Lookup Types

A tick in the box to the left of each look-up type will make this check available to your users when entering/editing vehicle details. 


Please bear in mind access to Full, Owner & PPSR checks are only provided to sites with a valid RMVT number; while you can tick them here, these look-ups will only work if the NZTA has granted your access to this data and we have been supplied this number on the registration form.


Clicking the Help icon (blue question mark) to the left of the tickboxes will display descriptions and pricing of the various types: 



RMVT Details for Registered Motor Vehicle Trader(s)


As explained above, certain data checks are only available to registered motor vehicle traders, tick the box in this section to confirm your business is an RMVT and enter your registration number in the field provided:


Once this is complete, click Save


NZTA Data Feed History (Log/Report)


To view a summary of NZTA checks performed in your system, use the NZTA History button found in the bottom left corner of the NZTA Data Feed setup menu:



This will display a report/log of all NZTA data checks processed in your system along with the assosiated charges. There are controls at the top of this report to filter results based on date, sort the results by date/rego and a search box to search for specific records.


Clicking on a specific 'date' in the far left column will display the results of that specific NZTA look-up.





Removal / Deactivation of the NZTA Data Feed


If in the future you need to disable the NZTA Data Feed, you can use the Deactivate NZTA Data Feed button shown on the top right NZTA Data Feed setup menu.
