Extension Config: Append | SEVIS (Funding)

Post by lucyzoe »

Hello,
When applying the Extension Configuration: Append | SEVIS: Verify and append SEVIS admission data (Minimum funding, program information, etc),how do you control the placement? Is there some type of field that MUST appear directly above where the 'Append' data appears?

Thanks,
Lucy Zoe

*Update*
According to sunapsis, if meta information is NOT used, the extension field is placed before the first non-Information Display or Label type field.
There's a Feature Request (16110) for the ability to control where the appended info appears.

Sort of confused. I wasn't aware this extension interacts with meta information at all?

Jason,
Here's the response:
"...tested this extensions' behavior, and the extension will insert it's fields before the first field in you e-form that isn't an Information Display Only or Label Field. The assumption was that the first fields of the e-form would be information display or label fields to give directions to the international on how to fill out the form, and then the extension's fields should follow. Now this extension was added before meta information functionality was added to the system."

Based on the FR 16110...it may or may not function with Meta Data.
