Utilize the Auto TTSN Functionality within Trident 1™

Most firearms businesses run on a TTSN filing system to keep track of their 4473s in their bound book.  Trident 1 has the capability to auto generate a TTSN for each of your customer transactions that don't include an FFL. Trident 1 does this by connecting to FastBound© with their ability to auto generate a TTSN and just notate it on the sales order to ensure fluidity between both systems.

To set up the TTSN functionality:

Within FastBound:

1. Log in to your FastBound account

2. Click Settings at the bottom left

3. Click the Dispose tab in FastBound

4. Click the Slider to automatically generate a TTSN

5. Click Save

Going back to Trident 1:

1. Click the Personal & Admin menu

 

2. Click the FastBound API panel

Note: you may not have access to this as a user and may have to contact Trident 1 support.  Generally this is a master admin permission that only Trident 1/ Omnna employees have access to.

3. In the FastBound API TTSN functionality there are a few different options to choose:

Form 4473s to be filled with:

  • OTSN - this is primarily related to FFL holding customers. The OTSN will only appear within their Confirm Bound Book dialog to put in an FFL or other identifying transaction number that you would like. *recommend checked*

  • TTSN - this is related to your non-FFL holding customers. In the Confirm Bound Book dialog the TTSN will appear sequentially as notated by the below counter. *need to be checked*

TTSN Type:

  • Auto Generated (by FastBound) - Trident 1 does a boomerang API to fetch an autogenerated TTSN from FastBound and notate it on the sales order without any regard to if it is already used in a Trident 1 sales order. FastBound keeps track of the sequence and Trident1 just writes what it is given. *for FastBound to generate the TTSN and Trident 1 just writes*

  • Manually Auto Generated - Trident 1 keeps a sequence counter that the user inputs.  If you have an already existing TTSN process and would like to start at a certain number, this is the best option. *FastBound has availability, Trident 1 checks on the availability then writes it within this manual sequence*

  • Manually Enter - the user manually enters a TTSN every single time on the sales order. It is notated on the sales order as well as pushed out to FastBound to keep track of your eBoundBook. *if you utilize this setting, you will need to turn off the auto generate TTSN setting from FastBound and Trident 1 will just write over to FastBound that this is the TTSN*

TTSN Manual Auto Generated Counter:

  • Number - this is the number that you can verify if it is sequential.  This is also the place where if you choose a manually auto generated preference, you create a starting point for your numbers.

  • Reset Counter - personal preference when to start your reset counter.  Please check your local and federal ATF regulations for advice on when this needs to be reset.
