SCAO2-5  Test students for eligibility






Processing
Rules
  
   1.  Compensation; 

1.1.  The program applies the validation 'DC' to determine if the program should apply compensation as set out below. 
1.2.  If the user has set up Compensation Rules in the general entry requirement rules in {SCAO1-2b1}, the program will apply the compensation rule only if the applicant fails the general entry requirement. 
1.3.  If the 'Match' value on the compensation rule is equal to:

1.3.1.  'E', the student's result must match that of the compensation rule exactly.
1.3.2  .'G', the student's result must be equal or greater than the rule.
1.3.3.  'L', the student's result must be less than or greater than the rule.
  
2.  Processing rules: Fail Entry Requirements:

2.1.  General Entry and Subject Requirements:

2.1.1.  In the event that the applicant fails any general or subject entry requirement, the program links the admit status for that particular event to the applicant's application i.e.: 

2.1.1.1.  Fail General entry requirements - Event A3.
2.1.1.2.  Fail General Subject entry requirements - Event A4.
2.1.1.3.  Fail - No matric subjects for applicant - Event 12.

2.1.2.  If the applicant fails the events A3, A4 or 12 entry requirements, the admit statuses for these events will be linked to all the applicant's application choices. 
 
2.2.  Qualification Entry Requirements:

2.2.1.   Fail Qualification entry requirements - Event A5.
2.2.2.   Fail Low Age requirement - Event A6.
2.2.3.   Fail High Age requirement - Event 10.
2.2.4.   Fail No matric subjects - Event 11.
 
2.3.  The program applies the validation 'SC' rules to the applicant's score:

2.3.1.  If the validation SC = Y, replace the applicant's score and random number with a zero or with any default value entered by the user for the event and status combination. 
2.3.2.  If the validation SC = N, leave the applicant's score and random number as is. 
 
3.  Processing rules: Pass Entry Requirements:

3.1.  When an applicant passes all the entry requirements for an application, the program links the admit status, linked to event A2, to the applicant's application. It also links the event code to the field IEREVNT. 
3.2.  On successful completion of this program, the run number record will be updated with the date of processing, the user who ran the program and the number of records processed
 
4.  General

4.1.  Users cannot specify multiple CAO Run numbers to include or exclude.
