This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit K12OB-I-48 Ability for an admin to enter an application on behalf of a family.
We receive applications from SSAT and Gateway and occasionally on paper :-) We would like to enter these applications into onBoard so we can have a consistent database and effectively use and acclimate our future students with our system. At present, we figure the only way to do this is to manually add them as an inquiry and then impersonate them and complete the application. Though it may get the job done, it should be easier to do this.
We currently do the same - create inquiry, impersonate parent, and enter app from paper app, SSAT, or other international agents who apply on behalf of their families. It would be less time consuming to be able to enter an applicant from a data manager trype role that would bypass creating inquiry, etc. (In Education Edge you entered data and then chose status (Inq, app, etc). Much quicker and easier).
