Create a PPRS registration template

A registration template is a saved set of draft registration details that you can reuse to create new PPRS registrations.

A registration template is particularly valuable if you regularly enter PPRS registrations that contain the same or similar information. It can save you time when entering information, and can help you avoid errors by starting with the same information in the draft registration.

1. Use Enter a Registration to start creating a new registration. Select the jurisdiction (province or territory) and the registration type, and continue to the Draft Registration Details screen.

2. Enter only the information that is common to most of your registrations, such as the registration term, secured party record(s), and general collateral description text.

3. Near the bottom of the Draft Registration Details screen, click the Save Draft button. Choose a directory location and file name for the draft registration details (template) to be stored. The file will be stored as a java serialized object file (file extension is .ser). You may create as many templates as you need.

4. To use your registration template, return to the Enter a Registration screen. Enter the saved template’s file name or use the Browse button to find the file. Next, click on the Open Draft button. This will copy the previously saved information into the Draft Registration Details screen. Continue to the Draft Registration Details screen in order to complete the registration.

Notes:

1. Templates (saved files) are sharable and transferrable between users. For example, all of the users within your account can use the same templates.

2. The Save Draft and Open Draft functions can also be used to save a partial registration for completion at a later date and time.
