APAS Institution Refresher
This is a background process that runs nightly (on application restart) that ensures PASI has an accurate and current list of APAS Registered Institutions. PSI's in PASI are stored as Transcript Recipients. myPass uses this list to determine which institutions a student can order a transcript for electronic delivery.
The source information is retrieved from the ApasInstitutionService located here: https://applyalberta.ca/APAS.WebServices/InstitutionInformationAndCodesServices.asmx
The service is called with the following properties:
| MaxResults | 25000 |
| Country | “Canada” |
| InstitutionType | “APASMEM” |
| IsTranscriptSubscriber | “true” |
Transcript Recipient
This process will maintain the active ApplyAlberta registered institutions in the Transcript Recipient table by ensuring that any active ApplyAlberta registered institution that is returned from APAS Core will have an entry in the this table with the following values:
| Data Element | Value Assigned |
|---|---|
| Recipient Client Identifier (Transcript Recipient) | The Client ID with that has both these roles: PESC Transcript User and APAS Client User. |
| Recipient Institution Identifier (Transcript Recipient) | PSI identifier from APAS Core |
| Recipient Name (Transcript Recipient) | PSI name from APAS Core |
| City Name (Transcript Recipient) | PSI city name from APAS Core |
| Region (Transcript Recipient) | PSI region from APAS Core |
| Country Name (Transcript Recipient) | PSI country from APAS Core |
| Document Delivery Method (Transcript Recipient) | Electronic (Document Delivery Method) Note: This is just the value that is placed when created. It is okay for the value to differ. The refresher process does not need to ensure that this remains as this value. |
| Is Deleted (Transcript Recipient) | Any recipients (with a matching Delivery To Client ID that match the “APASCoreClientID” configuration) that have not been identified as an active ApplyAlberta registered institution will be marked as deleted. |
