Requirement Template
(Note: This is one of the objects related to Application Requirements and Checklist. For a use case and example, see here.)
Introduced in v3.11, this object serves as a template for the Requirements that users will need to perform (if active).
-
Requirement Set Template ---> Requirement Set.
- Requirement Template ---> Requirement.
For example, one of the Requirements for an applicant is to upload an academic transcript for a Program Application.
Rather than creating a Requirement for each applicant, a Requirement Template can be created.
Multiple Requirement Templates can be created under a Requirement Set Template.
This Requirement Template will be cloned as a Requirement on the Program Application once the criteria field in the Requirement Set Template returns the expected value.
See here for more details.
