I've been pretty "busy" but I just haven't been submitting reviews because it's such a PITA and I have other time constraints.  So I just now submitted a review and was shocked to see that the top #1 field is "TER ID"!  When did that change occur?  How long has it been there?  

The review form still doesn't auto-populate, but it's a start, I guess

An interesting addition.
Might be to prevent creating another TER ID if a provider already has a TER ID.

And not technically difficult to achieve at all.  

Since none of the stuff that we enter other than the scores and the review itself matter. Its definitely a good step in the right direction though. They must have added the feature sometime in last 3 weeks.. When I submitted my last review, it wasn't there..

It would be nice if they can somewhere include next to the TER ID box, where TER ID can be found. It would definitely help the newbies.

already included in the search function..wonder what they do on a first time review with website and no established ID? ...

Maybe you put unknown or new review in the field ???

have no idea..have to try it..have her link bit obviously no ID..hope they accept it..

END OF MESSAGE

I forget which fields are REQUIRED on the Submission Form, but if you submit w/o selecting from the drop down or entering a real value, your form gets bounced back with an error message in red typeface at the top.  

My first guess is that TER ID field will be optional until people get used to it and then maybe TER will even add a "TER ID [ no prior reviews ]" or "TER ID [ this is her first review ]" option under a button.  

I'm not sure if they need to add instructions on "How to find the TER ID".  I'd prefer that Newbies get help from the Newbie Board where, if they ask for help, replies will also give them more pointers about submitting reviews.  

As for me, if I observe something DIFFERENT from the Profile, I enter it, even though it won't change the Profile.  At least the info is in there for fact checking a later Problem Report.  E.g., Profile says "Tattoos: none" but I find that she's inked up: I'll enter what I see, not just "none".  Boobs go from natural to fake but not the other way or I'll disagree with someone's guess on height or size
