Run Details

 This job is run in batch mode only when the institution receives advice that the TAC offer round file has been provided. This is generally after admission offer processing is completed. Full details of the TAC Enrolments Statistics process are provided in the Admissions for the Subsystem Specialist section.

Technical documentation supplied with the Callista deliverables contains guidance for institutions not using VTAC, to enable them to build return files suitable for their TACs while using the available data extraction process.

 

Job Parameters

 Parameters are used to:

  • Nominate the academic period for which the process will run. This reduces the set of records which is processed, to those admission applications and student course attempts which commenced in that period.
  • Identify the filenames of the Input, Output and Error files.

 

Reports

 Rather than a report, an error log file is created. This records details of records from the TAC request file which were unable to be reconciled with Callista records. This file may be used for institution checking.
