Improved Prospect Card Layout

We improved the Prospect Card by arranging the data in neat columns for better readability and splitting the right section into an Admissions and Decision section. In the Admissions section, you can now display up to six fields.

Note: Your resolution must be large enough to accommodate four sections, otherwise this change does not appear.

Improved Email Feature

The email feature in AdmissionsPlus operates quicker.

Added Columns to Select Household for Prospect Dialog Box

We added the Prospect Street and Year columns to the Select Household for [Prospect] dialog box to help you determine the correct household to link a prospect to.

Added Ownership and Visibility Settings for Portfolio Items

Portfolio items you add to AdmissionsPlus are now only visible to you and any users you select as co-owners of the item. For portfolio items that are received from the holding bin, if an owner is not specified in Online Forms, the user who imported the file is assigned as the owner and the file is set as Visible for other users. If an owner is specified, the item is assigned to them and set as Not Visible.

Changed Assign Household IDs Setting to Only Assign IDs to Prospects in Selected Year

On the Batch Options > Household page, when you click Assign Household ID’s > Next, you will be prompted to assign household ID’s only to prospects in the year selected at the top of AdmissionsPlus.
