Process Steps
Identify correct style of closing note
2.1 There are 2 main types of closing note: a short note or a long note. A short note should be created where the whole of the subjects on the search sheet are being transferred. A long note should be created where only part of the subjects on the search sheet are being transferred.
2.2 For guidance on creating the correct style of closing note for your application, see Styles of Closing Notes.

2.4 Open CSR and log in, using relevant User ID and password.
2.5 In main menu, select CSS Enquiry and check if the relevant search sheet(s) exists.
2.6 If the search sheet(s) exists, check the status of the search sheet. This will either be ACTIVE or CLOSED (this information can be found at the top right hand corner of the screen when the search sheet is open).
2.7 If the search sheet exists and the status is ACTIVE, follow the create a closing note process, using the appropriate style. See Styles of Closing Notes.
2.8 If the search sheet exists and the status is CLOSED, pass to senior officer.
2.9 Ensure the closing note is added to all the relevant search sheets and the appropriate cross references are included in any affected search sheets.
2.9.1 When creating the closing note ensure '(KIR APP)' is included in the description: e.g.

2.10 If the whole of the subjects on the search sheet are being transferred to the Land Register, the search sheet must be closed.
