To review the proprietary name information of your device listings, please log into your FURLS account. After logging into FURLS, click on the button titled “Device Registration and Listing” and continue to the main menu. There are two options for viewing your listings in the DRLM main menu.
- To view the listings in FURLS itself, click on the link titled View Your Registration and Listing Information and select the option for viewing your device listings. To view a listing, click on the radio button next to the listing number and then click on the “VIEW SELECTED LISTING” button. Click on the View All link in the proprietary names section to view all proprietary names associated with the device.
- To view the listings as a downloadable Microsoft™ Excel spreadsheet, click on the link titled Download Your Listing Information and click the “DOWNLOAD LISTINGS” button to download all of your listing information, with the exception of the proprietary or brand names. Click the “DOWNLOAD PROPRIETARY NAMES” to download all of the proprietary names identified for your listings. Both downloads create Microsoft™ Excel spreadsheets that you can save and search locally. The two spreadsheets are cross-referenced by Listing Number.
If you find any device listings that are either missing a proprietary name or have incorrect proprietary names, please take note of the listing numbers and then return to the main menu. (For a Single Device) In the DRLM main menu, click on the link titled Change, Cancel, or Reactivate Listings. Click on the radio button next to the device listing that needs to be edited and then click on the “CHANGE LISTING” button. On the next page, ensure that the correct facility is indicated and continue. The next page allows you to indicate the establishment activity for the device and the proprietary names. Enter the proprietary names in the second (thinner) box and then click on the “Add Proprietary Name” button. If the proprietary name is confidential, make sure to click on the confidentiality box prior to clicking on the “Add Proprietary Name” button. To remove any incorrect proprietary names, select the name from the list in the top box and then click on the “Remove” button.
If you have a large list of proprietary names to add to the device you are currently editing, FURLS has the option of using a Microsoft™ Excel spreadsheet for uploading them all at one time. Click on the spreadsheet download link to get a sample spreadsheet. Enter one proprietary name per line of the spreadsheet and indicate whether or not the name is confidential. After all proprietary names have been entered, save the spreadsheet to your computer. Click on the “Browse” button to identify the location of the spreadsheet and then click on the “Upload” button.
When your list of proprietary names is correct, click the continue button. On the next page, complete the certification statement and then submit. You will now see a confirmation of the changes made to your device listing.
(For Multiple Devices) If you have a large list of proprietary names for multiple devices, FURLS has the option of using a Microsoft™ Excel spreadsheet for uploading them all at one time. In the DRLM main menu, click on the link titled Add/Replace Proprietary Names or Importers to Listings. On the next page, click on the link titled Add/Replace Proprietary Names from Active Listings By File Upload-Multiple Listings. On the next page, you will need to first click on the spreadsheet download link to get a sample spreadsheet. Enter one device listing number and proprietary name per line and indicate whether or not the name is confidential. After all proprietary names have been entered, save the spreadsheet to your computer. Click on the “Browse” button to identify the location of the spreadsheet. Click on the appropriate radio button to indicate whether the uploaded proprietary names will be added to the existing names or will be replacing the existing names. Click on the “Upload” button to proceed to the preview page. Review the listings and proprietary name to be uploaded, if correct click on the “Submit” button. You will now see a confirmation of the changes made to your device listings.
