Web Application Section Rules (SAAWAPP) page

This page is used to specify the application sections which make up each Web admissions application and the order in which the sections are displayed. Optionally, if a section of an application includes address information, the address type expected in the address information should be entered.

The Section Rules section in the main window is used to define the section rules for the display order and the selection of the Web sections.

The Copy Configuration in the main window is used to copy existing web application rules to new web application types. Enter the application type in the Key block. Select the Copy Configuration button. This displays a window which lists all existing application types. Select the application type from which you want to copy.

If the application type being copied from has questions defined for it on SAAWUDQ, a copy of those questions will be made on SAAWUDQ for the new application type. If questions have already been defined on SAAWUDQ for the new application type, the copy process won't touch those questions but will add all questions with non-matching sequence numbers from the existing application type to the new application type.

For example:

A new application type of X1 has questions defined with sequence numbers 1, 2, and 5 on SAAWUDQ.

Questions with sequence numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 have already been defined for existing application type of Y1.

Use SAAWAPP to copy application type Y1 into X1. Questions 1, 2, and 5 for application type X1 will remain unchanged.

Questions 3, 4, 6, and 7 will be copied from application type Y1 to application type X1.

During the copy, any questions already assigned to application type X1 will also be assigned to application type Y1.
