Document Persistence

Document Requirements Persistence (DRP) allows school users to create rules using regular expressions (see https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/javascript-regexpregular-expression/) to add or update a student document requirement in Regent. Document Requirements are added and updated upon the completion, including signature(s), of the Smart Form. The document requirement is only added or updated if the expression results are true. For example: For a Filing Status Confirmation Worksheet, if a student indicates, ‘No, I already filed a tax return’ within the ‘I was married at the time of FAFSA completion but am no longer married’ on a Marital Status Confirmation Smart Form, DRP Document Persistence can be created to add the student Tax Return a Divorce Decree document requirement with a status of ‘Needed’ to collect the additional documentation required.

Document Setup must be considered when adding DRP. If Document Persistence. For example, if a document is configured to Enforce ‘Enforce Scope UniquenessUniqueness’, a new document is will not be added if it already exists but , however, the status of an existing document can be updated. If Alternatively, if documents are configured to be added upon ISIR import, DRP automatically via another process (e.g. ISIR Import), the Document Persistence can be used to update the document status Document Status on an existing document(s).

Logical operators, such as, AND (&&), and OR (||) may be used in combination with built-in expressions, such as, SnapUtility.EqualOfAny, and SnapUtility.ReasonEqualToAny. The SnapUtility.ReasonEqualToAny is a special function that can not be used in combination with other expressions and will perform the requested action on existing, student documents where the document reason matches any of the values provided to the function.
