Narrator: In this video I'm going to show you how to enter compliance information in ROVER for ADR 29 - Side Door Strength. This ADR is currently using the generic compliance information form.



[Image shows the webpage scrolling through]



I'm starting from the 'Compliance information' page. Scroll down to ADR 29 and click the 'Complete compliance information' button.



[Image shows the cursor selecting 'Complete compliance information' and then the image changes to show the 'Compliance information - ADR 29/00 and the reference field being populated]



Start by entering your document reference number for this compliance information form. This reference can be up to 12 characters long and may be published on your decision notice, so please don't include confidential information. The reference number needs to be unique for this application.

This date, along with the document reference, is for your records. You can't select a date in the future.

ROVER uses generic compliance information forms for many ADRs, including 29. It's your responsibility as an applicant to be sure the compliance demonstration method selected is appropriate.



[Image shows the cursor selecting 'Test report details' in the list of ways compliance can be demonstrated and then the image shows the cursor selecting 'Apple' from the variants]



In this example, I've done some testing to the ADR to cover one of my variants only. So click on 'Test report details' and click the variant covered by the testing.

Once you've selected 'Test report details', you'll see on the left hand side menu there are more options.

Click the 'arrow' to go to the next page.



[Image shows the date field being populated and then the test report number being added]



Make sure you've got your test report handy so you can insert the test report date and the number. Please note that your test report will need to come from an approved testing facility.



[Image shows the 'Testing facility approval number' field being populated and then the cursor selecting 'Validate' and a green bar with text inside appearing 'Valid testing facility approval number']



Now, include the testing facility approval number and click the 'Validate' button to double check that it is correct. You will then see a green box appear to show that it is a valid number and two mandatory fields appear.



[Image shows the 'Testing facility name' and 'Testing facility address' fields being populated]



Next add the name and address, which will be used for validation by the assessor. Once your application is submitted, ROVER will confirm that the testing facility is approved to test against this ADR.



[Image shows the cursor selecting the 'Provide any further information' box and then pointing to the 'Upload supporting files' box]



You can provide any other information relating to this test report by typing in the box or uploading a supporting file. In some compliance information forms, if you add a value that does not fit within the expected range, you will be asked to provide an explanation in the comments.



[Image shows the cursor unselecting the 'Provide any further information' box and then selecting the arrow on the bottom right]



This doesn't apply here and there isn't anything else I'd like the assessors to take into consideration.



[Image changes to show the 'Comments' box appearing and the image shows the cursor selecting 'Save and Continue']



So click 'Save and Continue'.



[Image changes to show the Compliance Information page again and the webpage scrolls through to show the information recorded in the ADR 29 section]



If you return to your 'Compliance information' page, you can now see that there is a piece of information provided against ADR 29. To add more compliance information, click on 'Complete compliance information' again. And that's how you enter compliance information in ROVER for ADR 29.
