Attachments Subtab (Candidacy Tab)

This subtab is used for adding and viewing essays submitted by a candidate and other document text relevant to a candidacy. The attachments are stored on the ATTACHMENT table, but the list of attachments to display is generated from the CANDIDACY_ATTACHMENT table.

 

If the selected candidacy is in a DEFER TO stage, you can only view this window; no other functionality is available.

Attachments are saved only as TXT or HTML formats:

·       TXT documents are documents that are added directly through this tab.

·       HTML documents are those that have been submitted via a Form Builder form in JICS.

Each attachment has an Attachment Number, a Submission Date, a Submission Type, an Attachment Description, and an Attachment Format.

Columns

When you select a Candidacy row at the top of the Candidacy tab, the Attachments subtab displays the columns listed below. If the ATTACHMENT column in the ATTACHMENT table is populated, a document icon ( ) displays in the first column, indicating that essay/attachment text has been saved for the ATTACHMENT row; if not, the column is not populated.
