You may want to search for other applications instead of the ones that appear by default.  The “Application Search” screen allows you to do this. In addition, any time you are presented with a list of applications, you can search through them by name and SSN.

There are two ways to get to the Application Search screen:

1. If you are already in the "ApplyWeb Application Printing" screen or the "Applyweb Batch Download" screen, click the button in the upper right corner of the list of applications.
2. From the main administrative menu, click the "Search" link. If you get to the Application Search screen from the main administrative menu, you'll see a radio button that says:
   Search applications for: [x] Printing     [ ] Downloading
   
   This button determines whether you will be able to print or download the applications once the search is completed. The default value is "printing," and to change it to downloading, simply click that radio button.
   

The most likely choice you will want to make is to look for other Submitted applications within a certain date range. For example, if applicant Jane Smith calls your office and says she applied in mid-February, you may want to look for her application. To do this:
 

Summary Directions:
1) Click the radio button next to “Submitted.”
2) Select the date range by using the pull-downs for month, day and year.
3) Click the “Perform Search” button.
4) Search further, print the application, or perform a batch operation.

 

Detailed Directions:
1) Click the radio button next to “Submitted” in the Search Criteria table. (It's the last button in the list.)

2) Select the date range by using the pull-downs for month, day and year.

Be sure to select both a “from” date and a “to” date. The search will include the dates selected. Today's date always appears as the default value in the “to” date. One month prior to today's date appears as the default value in the “from” date.

If you click the , the choices in the Search Criteria table return to their original values.

3) Click

This will bring you to a new screen that will list the applications found in the search. (Use your browser's back button to perform a different search.)

4) Search Further, . . .etc. From here you have several options:

•  Search through the listed applications by name or SSN.
•  Print the application(s) individually by clicking on the Transaction ID link.
•  Perform a batch operation. This will be either batch print or batch download. The option that is presented is determined by the pages you came from. If you originally chose “Print” from the ApplyWeb Operations Menu, you will be able to batch print. If you originally chose “Download Batch File” you will be able to do just that.

Any time a list of applications is displayed, you can search for an application by name or SSN. To do this, use your browser's “Find…” function:
 
 

Summary Directions:  Use your browser's “Find” function to look for any text on this page, as follows: 1) Click the Edit menu at the top of your browser. 2) Select “Find . . .” or “Find in Page . . .” 3) Enter the student's first, last, or middle name, or SSN, and click the “Find” or “Find Next” button. 4) Close the dialog box (click “cancel”) and determine if the highlighted application is the correct one. 5) Repeat steps 1 through 4 until you find the application you are searching for or to find other applications.

 

Detailed Directions:
1) Click the Edit menu at the top of your browser.

2) Select “Find . . .” or “Find in Page . . .”

This brings up a dialog box that allows you to enter the text you are searching for.

3) Enter the student's first, last, or middle name, or SSN, and click the “Find” or “Find Next” button.

 If the text you entered is found, it will be highlighted.

4) Close the dialog box (click “cancel”) and determine if the highlighted application is the correct one.

5) Repeat steps 1 through 4 until you find the application you are searching for or to find other applications.

6) Be creative in your searches!

Try first name instead of last; omit the dashes in the SSN, or just enter a subset of the SSN. Remember to search for only one variable at a time. A search on first AND last name will probably come up empty.
