Description
### Summary
A restored company is required to complete a post‑restoration transition to meet current legislative requirements. This requirement applies to companies incorporated prior to 2004. The process involves submitting a transition application to the registrar and updating the notice of articles and articles to align with current standards, while removing any outdated provisions.
The filing applies to companies that:
- existed under a former Companies Act
- were restored under Part 10 of the current Act
If a restored pre‑existing company does not complete the post‑restoration transition, the registrar has authority to dissolve the company after providing notice. This outcome is treated as an administrative penalty and results in the loss of the company’s legal status until restoration occurs again.
### Business Rules
- The system should display an alert on the business dashboard after restoration indicating that the transition application must be filed within one year of the restoration date.
- The system should indicate that failure to file the transition application within the prescribed period results in dissolution of the company.
- The system should require the user to confirm that registered and records office addresses are correct before proceeding with the filing.
- The system should require the user to confirm that all current directors are listed before proceeding with the filing.
- The system should prevent users from modifying registered office and records office addresses within the transition application.
- The system should restrict users from adding or removing directors as part of the transition application.
- The system should allow users to update director address information within the transition application.
- The system should require that any changes to directors or office addresses be completed through separate filings prior to submitting the transition application.
- The system should inform users that pre-existing company provisions apply by default upon filing the transition application.
- The system should provide a reference link to the Business Corporations Act for pre-existing company provisions.
- The system should not require user action to accept or modify pre-existing company provisions unless separate filings are made to alter articles.
- The system should provide an optional field to capture the email address of the completing party.
- The system should send transition documents to the registered office email address used for the filing.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing the business dashboard restoration alert and the transition filing flow, then identify where confirmations, director address updates, article messaging, email capture, and document delivery are handled. Done means all listed business rules are implemented and the transition can be filed with the required notifications.
