An alias is an alternate name for an excavator. The system processes an excavator and its aliases identically. Use aliases to:

• Make the system match all variants of an excavator name by listing those variants as aliases of the excavator (also called normalizing excavator names)
• Add other excavators as aliases of an excavator (See Merge Excavator). Merged excavators (aliases) are processed the same way the excavator to which they are merged is processed

The system allows multiple aliases per excavator, but each must be unique.

If alias and zip code are both used, the system will not match the alias to the excavator unless the zip code on the ticket matches the zip code of the excavator.

1. On the Excavator Details page, click Add an Alias
2. On the Add an Excavator Alias page, fill in the Alias Name
