Understanding How to Evaluate Applicants Using Automatic Processing

Important! Mass Change is a deprecated product. It is strongly recommended that you use Application Engine instead. For more information on PeopleSoft Application Engine, see PeopleTools: Application Engine.

Recruiting and Admissions provides the following automatic processes to aid in evaluating applicants:

  • Mass Change and the Assign Evaluation Codes process (ADEVALCD.SQR).

    Assigns evaluation codes to applications in batch. Evaluation codes contain default data required for evaluating applicants (such as the rating scheme and evaluation status).

  • Extract data for Adm Appl Matl (extract data for admissions application materials) process (ADMTLEXT.SQR).

    Assigns application materials to applications in batch. Application materials are used to evaluate applications.

  • Assign Adm Applicant Rating (assign admissions applicant rating) process (ADMTLRTG.SQR).

    Retrieves objective scores (such as test scores) and evaluates them based on rules that you define in your own SQCs. Then, the process populates rating values on the Overall Rating page in the Application Evaluation component. Rating values are used to evaluate applicants.

  • Program Stack Update process (ADMTLPGS.SQR).

    Checks to see that all of the rating components have been entered, then sums all of the final value components on the Overall Rating page for an application. An SQC defined by your institution determines the status of the application according to the sum of the final values. Finally, updates the application evaluation status based on the rules in your SQCs.

  • Deposit Fees Calc (Batch) [deposit fees calculation (batch)] process (SFPBADEP).

    Calculates enrollment deposits in batch on applications on which you've run the Program Stack Update process.

  • Activate Applications process (ADPCPPRC).

    Matriculates applicants in batch who were evaluated using the Program Stack Update process.

Note: PeopleSoft delivers sample SQRs to help you with a variety of tasks. However, your institution can modify these SQRs to fit their specific needs. For this reason, your SQRs might be named differently, and they might behave slightly differently than described.
