The presence of a membership record linked a particular patient will enable functionality like PKB data sending†.
Creating a new membership record
To create a new membership record for a patient, first find their master record within the UKRDC, then within the list of Patient Records, click the “Add Memberships” button within the “Membership Records” section.
...
If a membership record does not yet exist for the patient, you will have the option to create a new one.

Initial data sending
By design, the UKRDC should automatically send any initial data to upstream services like PKB as soon as the membership record is created.If this initial send fails for any reason, you can easily trigger a re-sync to send the full patient record at any time. See Syncing data to upstream services.default, only data received after creating a membership record will be sent to PKB. In order for the patient to see their full record, you should sync the data after creating a membership.
To do this, click the “Sync to PKB” button in the Data Feeds section of the interface.

Footnotes
† While a PKB membership record is required to enable data sending for a patient, is it not sufficient. The patient's renal unit must also have PKB sending enabled at the unit-level.
