Choose this option if you would like to make certain changes to an approved certificate. Go to Manage Documents > Certificates and select the certificate you wish to reissue (it will be highlighted in grey) and then click ‘Reissue’. Once you click Reissue, the original certificate will be in suspended status until the new application is either submitted or cancelled. Reissued certificates are automatically approved and will be immediately available under Manage Documents > Certificates.
A new application, with a new document number, will be created that contains all the information from the original certificate. The only information fields that you are able to edit on a Standard or Group Based certificate through the Reissue function are:
· Detail tab
· Catch tab
o Health Certificate Number can be added or edited.
o Weights can remain the same or be decreased.
o Note: If you need to increase the weights, you cannot use reissue. Instead, a new application will need to be created and the incorrect certificate retracted.
· Transport tab
· Import tab
If you need to decrease the weights on an approved, forwarded certificate, you may use the Reissue function. However, the original certificate will be suspended and you will not be able to certify the balance of the weight of product that was forwarded to you.
Note: If you need to decrease the weights but must retain the balance for future use, you should use the Resale function.
Once the necessary changes have been made, click the ‘Submit Application’ button, located above the tab menu. When using the Reissue function, the new application will be automatically approved and available within your Certificate List.
The screenshot above shows the original certificate and the new certificate, within the Certificate List. The original certificate will be in Reissued status, and can no longer be used, while the new certificate will be in Approved status.
Note: When using the Reissue function, the new certificate will have a new document number. To find this number, locate the original certificate in the Certificate list. The ‘Component of Document’ column will provide you with the document number of the new certificate.
