-Creating Student Records
-========================
-
-As brought up in the :ref:`application_workflow` chapter, the final
-step of the application process is the creation of the student
-record on the basis of the application data. Only applicants in
-state ``admitted`` can be turned into students. This is possible at
-various application section levels:
-
-1. Officers can create student records from single applicant
-   records. A link button appears on the display page of each admitted
-   applicants which directly triggers the creation process:
-
-  |create_student_button|
-
-2. The `ApplicantsContainerManageFormPage` provides a form button
-   which allows to create student records from above selected
-   applicants:
-
-  |create_selected_students_button|
-
-  Only admitted applicants will be processed. Other selected
-  applicants will be skipped without further notice
-
-3. Last but not least, the portal manager with user id ``admin``
-   does see a link buttons:
-
-  |create_students_button|
-
-  on the `ApplicantsContainerPage` and on the `ApplicantsRootPage`
-  which creates student records from applicants inside a single
-  applicants container or even portal-wide respectively.
-
-  The reader may wonder: Why only user ``admin``?
-
-  Batch creation of thousands or even tenthousands of student records
-  is very computation intensive and takes quite a long time, even with
-  powerful computers. Experience has shown that the portal must be
-  disconnected from the Internet in order to avoid database write
-  conflict errors, which cannot be resolved if also students access
-  the portal. Usually conflict errrors are not serious. Unresolved
-  conflicts just lead to an error message and the database remains
-  unchanged. Unfortunataly, student creation does not only alter the
-  object database. As we will see below, also folders and files in the
-  filesystem are added. These filesystem changes are not being
-  reverted after unresolved conflicts, a fact which can cause serious
-  problems.
-
-  So the answer to the question is trivial: We expect that the admin
-  user knows what s/he is doing and is careful enough to start the
-  creation process in maintenance mode, which means when the portal is
-  disconnected from a public network.

-`Applicant.createStudent`
--------------------------
-
-The `createStudent` method is called for each admitted applicant.
-The method performs a series of checks before it creates a new
-student record:
-
-1. Is the applicant really in the correct state?
-
-2. Has the registration number not been assigned to another student?
-
-3. Is a certificate (`course_admitted`) provided?
-
-4. Can all required student attributes be copied and set? The
-   following attributes are copied:
-
-   .. autoattribute:: waeup.kofa.applicants.applicant.Applicant.applicant_student_mapping
-      :noindex:
-
-5. Can the application slip can be created? Defective images may
-   cause the adapter method to raise an exception (``IOError``).
-
-If all these checks are passed, a new student record is created, a
-password is set, the transitions ``create`` and ``admit`` are fired
-and all student study course attributes are set. These are the
-changes which affect the database.
-
-Furthermore, `createStudent` also produces an application slip pdf
-file, creates a new folder for the student in the filesystem and
-copies the pdf file together with the passport jpeg image file into
-the newly created folder. The copied application slip ensures, that
-the original application data do not get lost, when the application
-section is being purged.
-
-As mentioned above, folder creation and file copying are not being
-rolled back if the database transactions fails, e.g. due to write
-conflict errors. Therefore, batch student creation should only be
-performed if the portal is offline.
