Using the "OTH" code
The "OTH" requires manual intervention and may significantly delay your tasking request being accepted. We recommend finding the the end use code that best matches your use case instead.
If you do use the code "OTH" you need to also include an end use description in your request. This description will be reviewed before the collection request is accepted.
