Deleting Applications

This section lists prerequisites and discusses how to:

Before you can delete an application:

  1. Select select Records and Enrollment, then select Career and Program Information, then select Student Program/Plan.

  2. On the Student Program page, make sure that the applicant is not an active student in the academic career corresponding to the application.

    If the applicant has matriculated, delete the student records for the academic career and academic program corresponding to the application. Scroll to find and delete only the rows that correspond to the same academic career and academic program as the current application.

    If the applicant matriculated in multiple academic programs in the same academic career and one of them is valid, you can still run the Application Delete process. However, the applicant does not qualify for subsequent ID deletion because the applicant still has a relationship, as a student, in another academic program within the institution.

  3. Select select Student Admissions, then select Application Maintenance, then select Maintain Applications, then select Application Program Data.

  4. On the Application Program Data page, determine whether the applicant has another application in the same academic career corresponding to this application but in a different academic program.

    If the applicant has another application in the academic career, you can still run the Application Delete process. However, the applicant does not qualify for subsequent ID deletion because the applicant still has a relationship, as an applicant, in another academic program within the institution.

Note: If a prospect record exists for the applicant, the applicant does not qualify for subsequent ID deletion because the applicant has a relationship, as a prospect, with the institution.

Technical Information

To prepare records for the optional ID Delete process, the Application Delete process analyzes whether data should be deleted from the ID Delete control tables:

  • The process evaluates the ACAD_PROG table for each applicant, searching for a student record in the academic career corresponding to the application.

    • If the process finds a student record, it does not delete the row containing the applicant's identification number from the STDNT_CAREER table because the applicant has another relationship, as a student, with the academic institution. Therefore, the applicant does not qualify for ID deletion.

    • If the process does not find a student record, then it evaluates the ADM_APPL_PROG table.

  • The process evaluates the ADM_APPL_PROG table for each applicant, searching for another application in the academic career corresponding to the application record.

    • If the process finds another application, it does not delete the row containing the applicant's identification number from the STDNT_CAREER table because the applicant still has a relationship, as an applicant, with the academic institution. Therefore, the applicant does not qualify for ID deletion.

    • If the process does not find an application, then it evaluates the ADM_PRSPCT_CAR table.

  • The process evaluates the ADM_PRSPCT_CAR table for each applicant, searching for a prospect record in the academic career corresponding to the application record.

    • If the process finds a prospect record, it does not delete the row containing the applicant's identification number from the STDNT_CAREER table because the applicant has another relationship, as a prospect, with the academic institution. Therefore, the applicant does not qualify for ID deletion.

    • If the process does not find a prospect record, it deletes the row containing the applicant's EMPLID, ACAD_CAREER, and CAR_REQ_TERM from the STDNT_CAREER table.

  • The process updates the Application Number Deleted field in the ITEM_SF table from N, the default, to Y.

  • Data in the ITEM_SF table flows up to the ACCOUNT_SF table.
