What this feature does

Manage the end-to-end intake, review, approval and evidence lifecycle for PRS database registration evidence. The supplied Compliance Monitor module keeps live operational records, source documents, generated evidence and audit history connected through shared section keys, compliance types and linked-entity references.

How the workflow fits together

The England PRS Database workspace separates uploaded source evidence from the approved compliance record. This preserves a review checkpoint before dates, references and status are relied upon elsewhere.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Open Licensing & Gov → England PRS Database.
  2. Review current workflow counts, recent uploads and latest notification activity.
  3. Search for the linked property or entity before creating a new intake.
  4. Open the relevant intake and follow its displayed parse, review and approval state.
  5. Verify the approved record and PDF in the compliance register.

Important fields and decisions

Linked propertyVerify the linked property against the uploaded evidence and linked source record.
Document typeVerify the document type against the uploaded evidence and linked source record.
Registration typeVerify the registration type against the uploaded evidence and linked source record.
Register or authorityVerify the register or authority against the uploaded evidence and linked source record.

Record lifecycle and audit

Reopen the relevant workspace after saving. Confirm the intake ID or record reference, linked entity, status, dates, evidence list, generated PDF and any notification or audit entry. Where the module offers separate source evidence and system PDF buttons, review both rather than assuming they contain the same information.

What happens after completion

An approved PRS database registration evidence record is linked to its source entity and available to records, notification and audit tools. A successful browser message confirms that the request was handled; the register and audit history confirm what was actually retained.

Controls, checks and common mistakes

  • Confirm the linked property, tenant, company or record ID before uploading, approving, sending, exporting or deleting.
  • Do not treat OCR, parsing, confidence or a success alert as a substitute for human evidence review.
  • Verify the saved record and audit history after every state-changing action.
  • Keep original uploaded evidence distinct from system-generated PDFs and notification evidence.
  • Use least privilege and avoid administrator-only actions unless the task genuinely requires them.
  • This module supports operational compliance records; it does not replace professional legal, regulatory or safety advice.
Compliance and data safetyUse the module as an operational evidence and workflow tool. Verify legal, safety, tax, licensing, data-protection and regulatory decisions with the organisation’s authorised professional process.
