Edit Application

This activity represents the user completing details on one or more pages in the online application. This activity mostly involves the user interface presenting the page flow and collecting data from the user. If your institution has implemented attachments, then the returning user may wish to view any existing attachments associated with an application.

When the user edits the application data, the online application user interface may present dynamically generated prompts and dropdown list boxes. The online application may need to populate the values for these prompts and list boxes through calls to the SCC_GET_LOV service operation. Dynamic prompting occurs in situations where the system uses the user input to display the user interface dynamically. An example of dynamic prompting is when the user selects an undergraduate career; the Program field on the online application displays only undergraduate programs for the user to select.

A typical self-service, online-application user interface might perform the following actions:

• Present a series of pages for the user to interact with.

• Optionally, formulate a dynamic List-Of-Values request message.

• Submit the request message to the SCC_GET_LOV service operation.

• Present the List-Of-Value results in the online application page fields.

• Optionally, formulate an attachment request message.

• Submit the request message to the SAD_GET_ATTACH service operation.

• Decode the response from AAWS and present the binary content of the attachment in a suitable viewer.
