(CAN) Receiving External Applications from OUAC

This chapter provides an overview of external applications from OUAC and discusses how to:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding External Applications from OUAC

Universities in Ontario, Canada use the Ontario Universities Application Center (OUAC) throughout their undergraduate admissions process. The OUAC collects much of the undergraduate admissions data from various sources and electronically transmits the data to institutions in Ontario.

PeopleSoft developed the OUAC interface using EDI Manager. This tool enables you to load data that you receive electronically from OUAC into your PeopleSoft application. The system posts personal data, application data, academic history, and testing information to core tables in your database.

To process OUAC transactions, you run a pre-load process that prepares the OUAC file for EDI. Then you load the data from the OUAC file into staging tables in your application. While the data is in the staging tables you can view and edit the data. When you are ready, you post the data to tables in your application.

The OUAC defines the fields on these pages. Please refer to the OUAC Systems Manual for explanations of the individual fields on each page.

Input File

Enter the full path and name of the OUAC file that you want to process.

Output Des (output description)

Enter the full path and name of the output file.

Click the Run button to run the OUAC pre load process at user-defined intervals.

Click to jump to parent topicLoading the OUAC Data Through the EDI Manager

Use the Schedule Inbound EC Agent - Run Control Parameters page to load the OUAC data through EDI Manager. The Inbound EC Agent process (ECIN0001) translates the values in the flat file created by the OUAC pre-load process and loads them into staging tables. Set the run option parameter to single file and the force profile parameter to do not force.

View the status of an OUAC application record, and to view messages when generated by the posting process. For example, you can determine if a record is waiting to be processed, if a record instigated a new person to be added to your database, or if any errors were encountered during the search/match or loading processes.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUsing the OUAC Suspense Page

Access the OUAC Suspense page (Student Admissions, OUAC, Processes, Suspense Data).

Search/Match Processing Option

Displays the status of the record after the Search/Match process.

Complete: The process was completed without errors.

Error: The process encountered errors.

Perform: The process has not run yet.

OUAC Process Status

Select the status that you want for this record. Field values are delivered with your system as translate values. Do not modify these values in any way. Any modifications to these values require a substantial programming effort. The delivered values are EDI Loaded, Loaded, Posted, Reviewed, and Suspense. For example, if you change the status to Loaded, the next time that you run the post process, this record would post to the database—because the post process posts any file with a status of Loaded. If you do not want the record to remain in suspense status and do not want to post it to the database at a later date, select Reviewed.

ID

Enter an ID to merge this record with an existing ID type. If the system suspended the record after it performed the search and discovered a match for one ID, that ID displays here.

If the system finds more than one match, the search order number appears and the number of matches appear in the Matches display-only field.

Click to jump to parent topicPosting OUAC Transaction Data

This process picks up all the transactions in Loaded status and posts the data to the PS Core tables. It creates separate applications for each OUAC reference number/application number that is not a 101 applicant. For 101 applicants it creates separate program numbers.
