Moreover, the students section is completely independent from the applicants section. Kofa can be configured without its `applicants` module but not without its `students` module. 6 Applicants and students are different entities and stored in 7 different places. Moreover, the students section is completely 8 independent from the applicants section. Kofa can be configured 9 without its `applicants` module but not without its `students` 10 module. 7 11 8 Anonymous users can self-register and automatically become applicants (users) of the portal. The number of applicants is not limited and, theoretically, Kofa can host hundredthousands of applicants in various applicants containers. Usually, only a few of them are beeing accepted for studying at the university. Once the application process has ended, admitted applicants are transformed into student records. New student records are created and the data are copied from the applicant records. When this 'student creation' process is finished, the applicant records are dispensable. Aim was to provide an easy way to get rid of the huge batches of applicant records by only one click, in order to keep the database clean and tidy. The process is described further below. 12 Anonymous users can self-register and automatically become 13 applicants (users) of the portal.

An 'application' in computer sciences stands for a software or web application. Software developers may get confused by using the term in a different context. To take this into account, we prefer to speak of 'applicant' in this documentation, instead of 'application' although, in the linguistic context, it sometimes makes more sense to speak of the latter. However, in the user interface (UI) and also in Python docstrings the term 'application' predominates. 27 The term 'application' has a double meaning in English. An 28 'application' in computer sciences stands for a software or web 29 application. Software developers may get confused by using the term 30 in a different context.

However, in the user interface (UI) and also 34 in Python docstrings the term 'application' predominates. 13 35 14 In contrast to student containers, applicant containers do not contain subcontainers. The only objects they contain are applicant payment tickets (i.e. instances `ApplicantOnlinePayment`). Thus it does not make sense to speak of a treelike structure. In contrast to the students section 36 Much like students, applicants are also a users of the portal and 37 the applicant object is a user account surrogate, see 38 :ref:`Applicants and Students <applicants_and_students>`. In the 39 following we always refer to the applicant container when talking 40 about an applicant. 41 42 In contrast to students containers, applicant containers do not 43 contain subcontainers. The only objects they contain are applicant 44 payment tickets (i.e. instances of `ApplicantOnlinePayment`). Thus 45 the hierarchy is flat and not really treelike as the students 46 section. Also, applicants (applicant containers) are stored in 47 different parent containers (instances of `IApplicantsContainer`). 48 There is not one single parent container like in the students 49 section but one container for each application session and 50 application type:: 51 52 Applicants Section (ApplicantsRoot) 53 | 54 +---> ApplicantsContainer 55 | 56 +---> Applicant 57 | 58 +-----> ApplicantOnlinePayment 59 60 61 Interfaces 62 ========== 63 64 .. toctree:: 65 :maxdepth: 3 66 67 applicants/interfaces 68 69 Workflow & History 70 ================== 71 72 .. toctree:: 73 :maxdepth: 3 74 75 applicants/workflow 76 77 Browser Pages 78 ============= 79 80 .. toctree:: 81 :maxdepth: 3 82 83 applicants/browser 84 85 86 -
