Registration - Birth
TER-participating local registrars can use the system for a variety
of functions.
The Local Registrar retrieves the birth record from the queue and
subsequently assigns a Local Registrar Number/Local File Date and prints the
record for the local’s files.
TER retrieves the record to the screen where the Local Registrar responds to
the following fields:
- Local File Number
- Local File Date
TER provides the capability to print the birth certificate. The system also
supports a mechanism to reprint the birth certificate should the initial print be
unsuccessful.
