NOW LIVE: Revised File Naming Requirements and Version Tracking Features
Vertical Permitting Plans Submittals Enhancements
Orange County Government, Development Services and the Division of Building Safety are consistently working to make strategic enhancements to Fast Track Online Services. We heard our customers' requests for a simpler plan file naming system and are pleased to announce two major changes have launched.

Revised File Naming Requirements
Orange County is proud to announce that we have developed a solution that will allow you to upload your plans and documentation with simpler file name requirements.
The biggest change is that files must now be named starting with the sheet number assigned by the design professional, then a short description of that sheet’s content. If the design professional assigned the number A5.13 to the sheet containing the floor plan for the third floor, the sheet should be named A5.13-Third-Floor-Plan.pdf.

An index page is now required if more than 30 plan files will be uploaded. The Site Plan filename must contain the words "site plan", "plot plan" or "survey" and the index page filename must have the word "index". Please see the Naming Conventions Fact Sheet for more information.
Uploaded File Version Tracking
An automated version tracking and file replacement feature has been launched to assist with submitting Corrections and Revisions without having to ensure that each page file name is exactly the same. As shown in the screenshot, once a plans submission has been reviewed you may now use the "Upload New Version" feature to replace any single uploaded file. When using this feature, you do not have to match the filename to the previous version, the system will automatically rename the file and keep a record of the previous version. Use "View previous versions" to access these records.

Please note, if using the main file upload link instead if using the upload new version feature, any new version submissions (new layer) must continue to use the same exact filename as the previous submission.

For more information and a walk-through of the entire submission process, please view the Fast Track User Guide or take the Interactive Training Course*.

*Note: The interactive training course will be updated with the revised requirements and new information very soon!
