How to enter data in transactions in QRO Online
These guidelines for recording dates, names and addresses in QRO Online will ensure your transactions are lodged correctly.
Enter information into QRO Online the right way the first time to avoid potential delays in settlement.
Date format
Use the pop-up calendar or enter the date as ddmmyyyy.
Names
When entering a name in QRO Online for an individual, both a surname and first name are mandatory.
Enter the client’s legal name in upper case. This will reduce the risk of data-matching errors before settlement.
If your client has only 1 name (e.g. no first name or surname), you’ll need to call us on 1300 132 685 for instructions on how to enter their details in QRO Online. Your transaction will be out of scope for eConveyancing.

Private persons as trustees
Enter the trust name in the Trust name field, and the full name of the trustees in the Trustees field:

Private persons as trading entities
Enter the proprietor’s full name (as for an individual):

If the client is an individual, you must provide their date of birth. You don’t need to enter the name of the trading entity in the transferee details section. Enter the trading name in the Detailed property description field if it relates to a transfer of business assets.
Companies
Enter the company name in upper case, using the official legal name. For example, if ‘Limited’ is abbreviated in the legal name as ‘Ltd’, it should be abbreviated in QRO Online.
Enter the Australian company number in the ACN field, not in the Name field.
Addresses, lots and plans
Street addresses
Enter street names in full using sentence case. Enter suburbs or towns in full using upper case. For example:
- Road not Rd
- Street not St
- BRISBANE not Brisbane or BNE.
Lots and plans
If the property is a single lot, enter the lot number in the Lot from field.
Use the Lot to field only when entering multiple consecutive lots on the same plan.
If a lot used letters and not numbers, you’ll need to call us on 1300 132 685 for instructions.
