Open your Interest Register page, located under the People menu on the BoardPro dashboard.
Compliance Considerations
BoardPro retains closed interests within the system to meet legal requirements. Always ensure your records are accurate and legally compliant by:
Using the delete function sparingly—only for fixing errors or eliminating duplicates.
Keeping closed interests updated if additional information becomes available or circumstances change. For more advanced guidance or troubleshooting, consult the BoardPro support team.
On the Interest Register page, go to the interest that needs to be updated or edited and click on the three dots.
The Interest will open in a separate pop-up box where you can edit: This window provides options to edit various details such as the Organisation, Nature of the Interest, Notification Date, and End Date, if applicable.
The Organisation
The Nature of the Interest
The Notification date
Add an end date (if applicable)
Undoing or Modifying Changes
In cases where you need to undo or correct a change:
Locate the specific interest in the Interest Register.
For closed interests, navigate to the Past Interests section under the Interest Register.
Find the relevant entry, click on the menu or editing option, and make your changes.
You can re-open a closed interest, if needed, or further update related details. Note: Deleted interests cannot be recovered, so exercise caution before deletion.
Note: If you delete an interest, it will be removed from your records. However, if you close an interest, it remains on your records under the Past Interests, which fulfills a requirement of the Companies Act to retain your interests for several years. Closed interests can also be reopened or further updated as needed, providing flexibility for managing changes.
You would only delete a mistake or duplicate entry for best practice
