Prepare a full discharge/withdrawal instrument or a partial in Titles mode

How to prepare a full or partial discharge/withdrawal of instrument in Titles mode

Overview

In New Landonline you can do a discharge or withdrawal of some instruments to enable a full discharge. 

For partial discharges or withdrawals in Titles mode, the prepare pages are essentially the same as a full discharge, noting that the partial discharge will not affect all of the titles.

Mandatory fields are marked by a red asterisk * and must be completed for successful pre-validation, certify and sign, and submission.

  • Change due to pending dealing toggle above the Affected Instrument to edit, add or delete the names displayed. For example, use when an instrument in a prior dealing or a prior instrument in the same dealing is changing an interest holder's name.
  • Revert / Update button to re-set the interest holder’s name to reflect the Register or to update names to reflect any prior instrument in the dealing. For example, if the interest holder details have been edited using Pending dealing, using Revert/Update will revert to what is recorded on the Register. Or if a prior instrument has been added to your dealing which changes the interest holder, using Revert / Update will pull through the updated names.
