SLITS APEX Application User Guide
Overview
As EPA is moving away from the legacy Lotus Notes technology, the new SLITS application has been implemented in Oracle Application Express (ApEx) to replace the old SLITS application. This user guide documents information to help existing and new users be able to access and use the new SLITS application. Non-EPA users (existing or new) are required to request an EPA Web Application Access (WAA) account in order to access the application. EPA users can request the application access via the EPA’s WAA website. All the information is included in the sections below as well as the new features that Oracle ApEx provides.

The screenshot below shows the view that the responder will initially see when receiving a new request.

This action will trigger a system-generated email informing the requester of the new due date on the request.

A system-generated email will be sent to the requester informing a response has been replied to the request.
If the “Registrant Response” field is “No”, a confirm message window will popup to ensure the responder would like to make the request as “Complete”. Click “Cancel” to go back to the edit screen or click “OK” to complete the request.
