Transfer Service

This Help File Page was last Modified on 04/16/2012

The Transfer Service History function allows you to transfer an Alarm System's Service History from one Subscriber record to another.  

This function is used when your current Subscriber vacates a premises (home or business), and subsequently, a new Subscriber moves into that premises and activates that existing Alarm System.

Therefore, by being able to transfer that Service History, the existing system's maintenance history is preserved even though the ownership of the Alarm System has transferred from one Subscriber to another.

This Transfer Service History process should always be executed when a new Subscriber takes over an existing system.

The Transfer Service History Form is accessible within MKMS as follows:
