Darren,

Christian and I have been looking at the file we create for AG along with the List & Attribute Managers in AG.  We think we know why our imported App Req data is not being presented correctly within AG.  If a student in our data file is app incomplete the labels for App Req 01 through App Req 08 will appear in each record.  A date associated with each of those App Req fields will appear in the file only if the student has completed that requirement.  AG needs to be smart enough to use the App Req date to populate both the App Req date and the associated App Req label.

In the example below Colton Jones does not have a high school transcript (App Req 04) date in our data file.  His App Req 04 attribute in AG should be blank.  


 
In his AG record, App Req 04 is populated with High School Transcript and App Req Date 04 is populated with 11/28/07 (default date - date of the import).  If we presented this data to Colton via the Application Status Check List, he would show as complete, which would be incorrect as we are still missing his high school transcripts.   Chris is verifying for us that the imported values are being used for the application status check and not the web values.


 
I hope this helps.  Please let us know when this will be corrected within AG.

Thanks.
