(NLD) Processing CBAP

This chapter provides an overview of CBAP (Centraal Bureau Aanmelding en Plaatsing) and discusses how to:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding CBAP

CBAP (Centraal Bureau Aanmelding en Plaatsing), the Dutch Central Bureau for Admissions and Registration, is part of IBG (Informatie Beheer Groep). CBAP registers admissions of all prospect first year students in Higher education or University. The CBAP utilizes the automated system RASP (Registration, Admissions, Selection and Placement) to facilitate registration. RASP registers the following information; Personal data of the prospect student, information about prior education and personal preference concerning the education institution and academic program to which he/she wants to apply.

The CBAP procedure for admissions is based on a mandatory statutory requirement registered in the Higher Education and WHW act, the act Admissions for Higher Education, the Act Registration Mandatory Course Catalog for Higher Education and the Act on Prior Education Requirements for Higher Education.

Dutch Funded Education Institutions offering a pre-bachelor phase, in Dutch known as propedeuse, are obliged to partake in Central Admissions Registration procedures. This means that if a student plans to register at the propedeuse year of an academic program offered by a before mentioned funded Institution, he or she should register via the IBG. The CBAP (on behalf of IBG) then follows mandatory procedures as registered in the WHW act (article 7.37) and ensures that Admissions data is supplied to the Institution in question.

Students that are exempt from first year propedeuse registration can register directly at the Education Institution. Students can register directly at Education Institutions, which are not bound by the WHW act.

The CBAP Process can be divided into four different steps:

  1. Load CBAP flat file into suspense table.

  2. Search/match equivalent suspense data in PeopleSoft and check and correct suspense data manually.

  3. Process suspense data in PeopleSoft (Posting).

  4. Purge the suspense table.

Before starting the CBAP Load process, the user should indicate these items in the setup table:

External Organization is used as a default organization code. Students for whom prior education data should be entered via the core External Academic Data table should have a parent row present in Academic History. The External Organization should be entered if the core tables are to be updated. This field can be left empty. CBAP does not actually supply External Organization information, but Prior Education information only. Prior Education will be registered in Dutch prior Education tables by the posting process. In Dutch functionality registration of external organization for prior education is optional.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicLoading CBAP Flat Files Into a Suspense Table

First, the user has to place the received CBAP flat file (ASCII) in a directory at the institution's system. This directory must be known before one can read the file in the suspense table. The CBAP file will contain Personal, pre- education and info about the education program the student wants to apply to. For this an application engine based process should be created.

Institution

The name of the institution should be provided.

BRINcode

This code will be used only for matching/processing/purge processes. The BRINcode is available on the CBAP Load run control page and in the security setup options. Including the BRINcode on the run control record enables prompting on a BRINcode security table.

Effective Date

This date is used for admissions date and withdrawal date of student applications.

Action Date

This date is used to track the date the application data was provided in the system. This date will update the corresponding field in the Admissions Application Maintenance pages.

Admit Term

The term in which you are matriculating the student into the academic program. The admit term usually defaults from the Recruiting and Admissions matriculation process. However, because you are performing the admissions action though a data load, you must select the admit term for the primary academic program that you have specified and it will be used as the default for those applicants that are part of the CBAP Load

Admit Type

Select the admit type that you want to default for those applicants that will be loaded through the CBAP Load Process.

Application Centre

Select the application center to be defaulted for each application. This information helps you track what office is handling specific applications. Define application centers on the Application Center Table page.

Academic Level

Select the academic level that you want to assign to the selected applicants that will be loaded from the CBAP Load.

Academic Plan

Select the academic plan that you want to assign to the selected applicants that will be loaded from the CBAP Load. Use this field when no standard plan has been defined.

After providing and then performing the checking of these parameters, the application process can be started and the data will be present in the suspense table. A status field will provide information to indicate whether the process ran successfully or not. This field will be present on a separate page in an online maintenance component for the suspense data.

This status field is called 'Edit' and contains the following values:

Edit Value

Description

Completed

Process was able to read the data and put it in the suspense table without any problems

Error

An error has occurred after reading or loading the record in the suspense table.

Perform/Post

This value is manually maintained and is for information purposes only. The value is used for informational purposes at schools. During the upload process the system will allocate one of two edit values, namely Completed or Error. The process does not use the Perform/Post field value.

The following errors might occur during the upload process and are displayed on the CBAP Processing Option panel:

These errors will occur during the loading process if values are present in the CBAP Load file that are not known in the PeopleSoft tables. The functional criteria for determining whether information supplied is correct or not is based on combinations of Academic program and Campus/BRINcode combinations. Functional and technical changes in registration of Campus, Home Campus and BRINcode should be taken into account.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUsing the Posting Process to Perform Search/Match

For CBAP information to be present, the suspense table has to indicate whether information is to be added as new records (new student) in PeopleSoft core tables, or whether it has to be updated or ignored. To make this possible, search/match parameters must be provided. It should also indicate whether the search/match functionality setup used is actually the core search/match product provided by PeopleSoft. The posting process, which also performs search/match, uses this setup to perform search/match.

For new/existing students the following options apply for the suspense data:

A status field will provide information and indicate whether the process ran successfully. This field will be present on a separate page in an online maintenance component for the suspense data. This status field is called 'Search' will provide info if the process ran successfully.

Search Value

Description

Completed

The process has been run without any problems.

Error

An error has occurred in the search/match process of the record in the suspense table.

Perform/Post

Process has not been run yet for this record. This option is not evaluated the posting process and will not be used by it. The process uses the post field only when finished.

The process has to be based on application engine technology.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicProcessing Suspense Data

Before a suspense record can be processed, the read process and match process must have been run successfully for the student concerned. This will result in the edit and search fields both being set to complete. The process field will provide the status of the suspense record. The values described in the following table can be maintained manually in an online maintenance component, although some will be set automatically by the search/match process.

Value Process

This field displays the academic institution for which you want to load data from the CBAP file into the suspense file. The CBAP process places the institution value you select into different records as defined by the process itself. This value defaults from the corresponding field on the CBAP Load Parameters page.

BRINcode

This is a code that is assigned to all Dutch Institutions by the Dutch Ministry of Education and is mandatory that this code be used in all official communications with the Ministry.

Campus

The Campus that is requested in this application. Campus values are defined on the Campus Table page.

CIP Code

The appropriate VREBO Code for the academic plan as found on the CBAP file. CREBO Codes are defined on the Crebo Codes in the Netherlands Academic Structure Setup component.

Academic Career

The academic career that is requested in this application. Academic career values are defined on the Academic Career Table.

Academic Program

The academic program that is requested in this application. Academic program values are defined on the Academic Program Table.

Academic Plan

The academic plan within the academic program that is requested in this application. This value defaults from the corresponding field on the CBAP Load Parameters. Academic plan values are defined on the Academic Plan table.

Academic Level

The CBAP Load process maps the academic level to the academic level field in CRI-HO. This level will be used later in the process of sending information to the Central Register of Higher Education in the Netherlands. When the system is checking to see if an applicant is allowed to be withdrawn, it will not allow the withdrawal if the applicant's academic level is different then the one entered on this page. This value defaults to the CBAP Suspense file and can be changed once in the CBAP Suspense pages. The values for the academic level fields are delivered with the system as translate values.

Acad Load (academic load)

This field displays the applicant's selected academic load for the program to which she or he is applying as found on the CBAP file.

Admit Term

The admit term will be displayed for the term to which the applicant applies. The CBAP Load process will write this admit term value in every record with the Admit Term field in it. This value defaults to the CBAP Suspense file, where it can be later changed in the CBAP Suspense page.

Admit Type

Admit type for this applicant regarding this application. For example, you may have a value such as "First-Year and Transfer". The CBAP Load process writes the admit type to every application record found in the CBAP file. Values for this field are defined on the Admit Type table. This is an user default field. This value defaults to the CBAP Suspense file, where it can later be changed in the CBAP Suspense pages.

Application Center

Enter the application center where this application will be processed. This information helps you track what office is handling specific applications. Values for this field are defined on the Application Center table. This is an user default field. The value defaults to the CBAP Suspense file, where you can edit it in the CBAP Suspense component.

CBAP Year of Study

The CBAP Load process displays the academic year for which the applicant wants to commence study.

Study Location

The CBAP Load process displays the location of the applicant's prior education. This value defaults from the corresponding External Organization field on the CBAP Load Edit Parameters page.

BRINcode

BRIN is short for Basic Registration for Institutions (Basisregistratie instellingen). The Dutch Ministry of Education only is authorized to appoint BRINcodes to all institutions. It is mandatory that this code be used in all official communications with the Ministry. This is why the BRINcode is relevant for communications concerning Admissions and Registrations. Therefore, the functionality that should be built for CBAP, is affected by this Ministerial requisite. The BRINcode is a four-digit number, supplemented with a two-digit location code, which distinguishes one institution from another. This connection with locations in addition to Institutions implies that the BRINcode does not have a one on one relationship with the institution. Multiple BRINcodes may exist within one Institution. As the Dutch Ministry of Education appoints BRINcodes, they should be considered semi-dynamic. BRINcodes will only change if the organizational structure of an Institution changes in a way that has impact on legal company structures or responsibility structures concerning requirements as set by the Ministry of Education or if the Ministry decides that new BRINcodes should be issued. BRINcodes are usually only issued for new institutions. It follows that registration of BRINcode should be effective-dated. Registration of BRINcode should be possible in combination with Academic Programs, Campus and Academic Organization. Multiple Academic Programs and Campus combinations may be in operation within one specific BRINcode.

CIP Code and HEGIS Code

For Academic Programs all qualifications on MBO level (Middelbaar Beroepsonderwijs), which offer Adult Education and Professional Education, are registered as CREBO codes (Centraal Register BeroepsOnderwijs). CREBO roughly translates as Central Registry for Professional Education. The Academic Programs are actually derivatives of the CREBO codes. The Dutch Ministry of Education, via the IBG, appoints CREBO codes. The CREBO code is registered in the HEGIS Code Table. The CIP code (ISAT code) is a means to register qualifications and Academic Programs for Higher Education. The ISAT code is also appointed by the IBG. As the CIP code and the HEGIS code are not mutually exclusive, two separate tables are necessary to register these codes. The CIP code is registered in the CIP Code Table. Both codes are considered dynamic and therefore should be registered in effective-dated tables. A clear and apparent connection should exist between the CIP codes and Academic Programs and Plans. The same relationship applies for HEGIS Codes and Academic Programs and Plans.

Note. The standard search/match rules are used as are provided in standard PeopleSoft HR (SOA). This means that next to the provided set of search match rules, new ones can be created in standard PeopleSoft for usage at CBAP as well.

Search/Match Functionality

When CBAP data has been loaded into the suspense table, the user must enter the right search/match criteria in the CBAP search/match criteria panel. These settings will indicate when a new record should be added or if data in the suspense table should be used to update existing data. The settings also determine which data should be ignored for processing. After the search/match settings have been chosen, the same parameters can be used to post the CBAP data. Both processes can be run simultaneously (search/match and immediate posting). The user can also chose to first run a search/match and then run the posting process afterwards.

The search/match process will first process all CBAP suspense data with action code zero. All other action codes (such as withdrawal, change, cancel) update current applicants by adding new effective-dated rows to their existing records. Action codes are found on the CBAP file itself and loaded into the suspense file through the CBAP Load process. The search/match process should not fail if no effective-dated row is found for an action code other than zero. It should always find someone with the same information in the CBAP file. The process will affect an order by on the correspondence number. It will do so in order to determine which students are present in the suspense table with multiple action codes. That is, if the same correspondence number appears more than once in the CBAP file, it means that there is more than one row for this applicant, therefore more than one action for this applicant. If the search/match process finds an action of 0 plus an additional action, it will perform both actions.

Match(es) Found

When a match is found, the suspense record is processed for all CBAP codes, if the found search match rule is set to action update (search match parameters). All relevant data related to the provided CBAP action code will be updated. If it was manually set to add, or if the search match rule has been set to add, a new record will be created only for CBAP action codes 0, 8, or D. Otherwise the suspense record will not be processed, but will be suspended for manual correction.
