Updating Default Applicant User

When an applicant creates their account in Applicant Online, a new entry is made in the us_usno_mstr with their information. However, since there are more required fields on that table than we request from the applicant there is logic necessary to fill in the gaps.

By default, the system uses the ususnomaster.vbs file settings by checking for the Application name of "7iPortal." The application uses a user and password defined on the "App User" tab of the connection properties. Some of the values from the App User defined on the tab are also used as defaults for the Applicant User. Since the defaults are set in the InitNew process they are only the default values for the fields. If a particular page sets them prior to an update the new values will overwrite the defaults.

In order to specify values other than those in the .vbs file, values can be placed in the web.config AppSettings section.
