An ORI is a unique identification number assigned to a law enforcement agency or authorized entity. It identifies where fingerprint submissions and background check results are sent when processed by the DOJ, FBI, or state agency.

An OCA is a number used to identify a specific case, application, or transaction associated with a fingerprint submission. It helps the receiving agency match the background check results to the correct applicant or purpose.

ORI: Tells the system who receives the results. OCA: Tells the system which application or case the results belong to. Often used adjacent to ORI numbers for DCF regulated fields.
