Export the DPS Return File

The DPS Queue contains an option to report voter data that was received from a DPS or TX Online file import with a residential address that is outside your county. After a careful review to verify the voter data cannot be processed by your county, you are reporting back to DPS the county in which the voter should be registered.

  1. Go to VOTER REGISTRATION > TEAM Interface > Export DPS Return File.
  2. Click Confirm to continue the Export.
  3. Accept the default file name (<CountyCode>_<ExportDate>DPS_RETURNS).
    4. Important: This is the name format that TEAM expects when the file is uploaded. Do not rename the default name.
  4. Accept the default location or browse to a different folder and click Save. The Export DPS Results dialog displays a row for each voter record that will be included in the exported file.

  5. Do one of the following:
    • Click Continue to export the file in XML format to the location selected in step 4. Data from this exported file can then be imported in TEAM.
    • Click Print to send the grid contents to a print destination of your choosing.
    • Click Export to save the file in Excel (XLSX) format to a location of your choosing.
