Student Success & Engagement supports three different ways of uploading prospects:
- Via a CSV file from Imports Administration.
- Via manual entry from the Prospect Person Type page "Add Prospect - Individual" menu.
- Via the SIS Import, by importing person records that are assigned the "Prospect" person type.
Importing Prospects from the SIS
- From the SIS Import definitions article linked above, scroll to the the Person data feed to view how to import person records with Person Type "Prospect".
- When importing prospect data using the SIS Import data feeds, it is also important to verify the prospect person record(s) SIS Managed setting. By default, this is set to True.
SIS Managed True/False
The SIS Managed value determines what data is allowed to import for the prospect record person Id and if the prospect record can be merged with another record.
- If SIS Managed is set to True, there are no restrictions and additional person data can import on any data feed.
- If SIS Managed is set to False, additional person data can only import on certain data feeds.
- Person records set to SIS Managed True cannot be merged with another record.
- Person records set to SIS Managed True cannot be changed to SIS Managed False.
- Person records set to SIS Managed False can change to SIS Managed True.
