We’ve made it easier to manage license renewals by adding a Renew option directly to license application cards. Previously, the Renew action was only available from a license card after an application had been fully processed. Now, you can start a renewal right from the application itself, even before a license has been issued.
This is especially helpful when a business is registering for the first time and needs to backpay for multiple past periods. Instead of waiting for each license to be issued before creating the next renewal, staff can now generate renewal applications in sequence directly from the application list. The system automatically carries forward the correct license type, classification, and business details, so there’s no need to re-enter information manually.
To prevent accidental duplicates, the Renew link only appears when a valid renewal period exists and no renewal application for that period has already been created. This keeps your records clean and ensures each period is covered exactly once.
