What can/will be attached to prospect records, rather than applications?
From the list, is seems like it can only be transcripts, transcript evals, and whatever the supplemental thing is. Let’s check some of our verified friends and see if we have anything….and the answer seems to be ‘no’.

I was able to export files, but I am not seeing a reasonable way to drop them into Batch Acquire. The “Upload Digital Documents” sets up a DIP file https://knowledge.technolutions.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033424111-Importing-Documents-Using-a-Document-Import-Processor-Source-Format (with the constructed index! Thank goodness for Danielle’s notes!)

The old file limit on uploading 265mb at a time seems to not actually be a thing, which is what the huge timesink was in the past, but it cannot be scheduled--someone has to go into WebAdmit, pull the .pdfs, and upload them.
