Centralise your environmental permits, waste carrier licences, and expiry tracking in one place.
What the Permits module does
The Permits module gives you a single register for all environmental authorisations held by your business: waste carrier licences, environmental permits, exemption registrations, site licences, waste transfer note authorisations, and anything else. It automatically tracks expiry dates and alerts you when renewals are due.
Primary waste carrier licence
One permit can be pinned as primary. The primary waste carrier licence is displayed prominently at the top of the Permits page via the Waste Carrier Card, and its reference number is auto-populated into the Section B and C fields of new waste transfer notes. If you added a carrier registration during onboarding it will appear here automatically.
Permit list and filtering
Below the primary card, all other permits are listed with their reference number, type, associated site, and expiry status. Use the search box to filter by reference or type, and the status tabs — All, Active, Expiring, Expired — to focus on permits needing attention.
Expiry status badges
Each permit card shows a coloured badge: Active (green, more than 30 days until expiry), Expiring (amber, 30 days or fewer), or Expired (red, past expiry date). Permits expiring within 7 days show an animated red dot for immediate attention.
Permits without expiry dates are treated as Active
If you leave Expiry Date blank (for example, for a registered exemption that does not expire), the permit will always show as Active and will never trigger an expiry alert.
