Inventory Validation in ERT effective 11/20/2024

News | January 14, 2026

Updated:

Date: November 8, 2024
Bulletin: All Dealers and Tag and Title Agencies
From: Business Licensing and Compliance

Purpose
The MVA will be activating additional inventory validation tools in the system during the evening of Wednesday, November 20, 2024. 

Summary
Last month, we shared inventory best practices and enhancements that the MVA will be implementing. When this functionality moves to production on November 20, 2024, the system will require that all inventory is received, accounted for, and marked as “available” in your ERT system before the inventory can be issued to a customer. It will also require that the inventory is associated with the correct business location. If you attempt to issue inventory that is not correctly received or accounted for in your ERT system, you will receive an error. 

All four ERT vendors have been notified of the system enhancements that are required. If you have any questions regarding the details in your specific software system, please reach out to your ERT vendor. 

If you have any questions, please contact us at 410-787-2952 or [email protected].
