How are Inter-Authority Transfers handled?
The IAT process in ESR operates prior to an applicant being hired. When the portable data set is received from the old trust into the new trust they then are hired, will have their id checks completed and will at that point, assuming that the interface is in operation, be linked to the SUD. It is expected that a closed record in the SUD will be found if they had access to NHS CRS in the previous trust. A request will be made to open the record at which point the link to ESR can be made.
