Applied date

The Date Applied defaults to today's date when registering new patients and is a mandatory entry on the Registration - Personal Details (initial) screen.

It is the date that the patient applied to be added to the GPs' register.

  • For Registration Links practices, the Applied Date is the date that the Acceptance Transaction is generated to the TP (see Acceptance Transaction).

If re-registering a patient, the applied date defaults to today's date and displays in red.

Note - If a patient makes an internal transfer within the practice, you are reminded to change the Applied Date to today's date, see Change of GP within the practice - Internal Transfer for details.
