EM-Impact Integration
This page outlines how to submit recovery data to EM-Impact directly from Crisisworks.
Overview
MAV customers have access to EM-Impact to automate the calculation and submission of recovery data (previously known as EM Recovery Portal).
The data used for the submission to EM-Impact comes from the Recovery Case's Affected Private Assets and the Infrastructure assessments. The logic used for each metric can be viewed in the Metric Specifications section below.
The EM-IMPACT reports will exclude cases and infrastructure assessments that are Resolved or Closed. Please set the status to "No Action Required"
As of 2026 there are two reports in Crisisworks that can be uploaded directly to EM-Impact and one additional report you can generate to verify your data.
EM-Impact: Summary 2026: this report was updated in January 2026 and is uploaded directly to EM-Impact.
EM-Impact: Active Case Damages Detail 2026: this report sends active case damage data to EM-Impact. Cases, properties and property owners will be excluded from this report if consent is NOT set to yes. Only cases with a Private Assets set to Primary Place of Residence will be included.
EM-Impact: Private Asset Detail 2026: this report outlines the data included in the counts of EM-Impact Summary as of the 2026 Report. It is an internal report and is not submitted to EM-Impact. Please note: For cases with multiple property types, the cases will be listed under each type.
Submission process
To submit data to EM-Impact, follow this process:
NOTE: You will need to be on duty in the event as MRM or MRM Deputy to view or run these reports.
If needed your Crisisworks System Administrator can edit your positions to add the additional security policy called "Access to EMV Recovery Portal Reporting."
Step 1: Review your private asset data
The private asset data is supplied for a number of metrics, and a report exists to help you understand what will be included and excluded from the metrics. The private asset data is entered from within the Case record and could include assets such as dwellings, caravans, fences, pumps, water tanks etc.
Click on the Reports tab
Search 'EM' to bring up the EM Recovery Portal category
Select the EM-Impact: Private Asset Detail 2026 report and Run Report
Select the correct Event
If you're using a Crisisworks Cluster site, be sure to include the correct Region.
Configure the columns you wish to expose and click Run Report.
When running this report, you can configure it to show or hide various columns, and group by various columns. On first run, it may be useful to run the entire report grouped by Property Type to get an overview of the data you have along with what will be included.
Look for numbers that are excluded from a metric that appear to contain valid metrics. Some examples:
It is possible for Recovery Case records to not have a Property Type field set, and this will cause it to be excluded from some results.
The EM-Impact submission process does not support customised Property Types, Damage Levels or Private Asset Types, so if these have been customised within your site then check that important data is not assigned to those types.
Enable the optional "Cases" column to get a hyperlink to a Recovery Case for each line item. This will allow you to identify the specific case data included in each line item.
Step 2: Review Infrastructure Assessments report
The other detail report to run when reviewing your data prior to submission is the Recovery Infrastructure Assessments report
Click on the Reports tab
Search for Recovery or Infrastructure
Select the Recovery Infrastructure Assessments report and Run Report
Select the correct Event
If you're using a Crisisworks Cluster site, be sure to include the correct Region.
Configure the columns you wish to expose and click Run Report
When running this report, you can configure it to show or hide various columns, and group by various columns. On first run, it may be useful to run the entire report grouped by Infrastructure Type to get an overview of the data you have along with what will be included.
Step 3: Run the Summary report
Run the Summary report to generate the statistics for EMV.
Click on the Reports tab
Search 'EM' to bring up the EMV Recovery Portal category
Select the EM-Impact: Summary 2026 report and Run Report
Select the correct Event
If you're using a Crisisworks Cluster site, be sure to include the correct Region.
Select the metrics you wish to expose under the Columns section
Expand the Metadata section and select your response to:
Information Accuracy
Information Credibility
Validity
Approval for distribution
Click on Run Report
When the report finishes, you can review the numbers for accuracy.
The logic used for each metric can be found in the Metric Specifications and the Data Dictionary below.
Step 4: Submit to EMV
To submit the report to EM-Impact:
Click Send to EM-Impact from the bottom of the screen
Select the relevant EM Incident from the drop down list and tick Send to EM-Impact
Click Proceed to submit the data
You can select 'Monitor progress' to wait for the upload to complete, regardless you will be notified by email and via an audit log entry when the integration completes. Note, the confirmation email goes to the person that generated the report, not the user who clicked send.
Troubleshooting
Feedback on success or failure
After each submission, Crisisworks records a receipt message from EM-Impact within Crisisworks and notifies the submitter via the audit log and via email (if the user's profile is configured to receive email). If an error occurred, an error message will be included in the email and audit log message.
Most errors you are likely to encounter are from EM-Impact. If you encounter an error messages, please contact the EM-Impact Team or Datalink's service desk.

A dwelling is considered your primary residence if: you and your family reside in it; your personal belongings are in it; it is the address where your mail is delivered; it is your registered electoral address; essential services (e.g., gas, electricity, water) are connected; the duration of your stay and your intention to occupy it as your home may also be relevant. Excludes: holiday homes or occasional-use residences; private business premises or offices with no primary residence; commercial properties, storage containers, factories; outbuildings such as sheds, garages, stables, etc. Note: Discretion to be applied with regard to lawful occupation Note: Not all residences have mail delivery directly, and may rely on a post box. Damaged Habitable A dwelling that has sustained minor to moderate damage, but the majority can remain safe and habitable with minor repair work. Typical characteristics may include: partial damage to floors, roofs, or walls, such as broken roof tiles that can be tarped; temporary inundation limited to parts of the dwelling; utility damage or temporary disruption of essential services such as electricity, water, gas; broken windows or doors that can be temporarily secured; one area or the residence may be significantly damaged and can be isolated from the remainder or the residence. Repairs are possible without prolonged displacement, including make safe arrangements awaiting permanent repairs; residents might need to vacate briefly (e.g., 24–48 hours to a week) to ensure safe conditions. Note: one room may be able to be isolated, enabling the rest of the dwelling to be habitable. Dwelling A dwelling refers to a structure primarily used for residential accommodation, including: detached house, attached house, or townhouse; apartment or flat; strata title unit; unit in a retirement village; caravan, houseboat, or other mobile home. Dwellings often include separate but associated structures such as laundries, kitchens, bathrooms, toilets, storerooms, or garages.

Typical characteristics may include: extensive damage to floors, roofs, or walls; kitchen, bathroom, or toilet unusable; severe utility damage and prolonged disruption to essential services; extensive broken windows or doors posing ongoing safety or security risks. Residents must vacate the dwelling for an extended period (typically more than 2-4 weeks and up to a year or even two) to allow repairs, necessitating alternative temporary accommodation and in some cases temporary housing. Note: If subsequently determined that demolition is required, reclassify as "Destroyed." Determination can be through a feasibility assessment by insurers or a building professional.
