ReVera Background Check Report

We use a service to perform background checks called ReVera. We've built the ability for our internal users to generate a report of students that we need background checks for to send to ReVera

The ReVera report can be generated by accessing the following page: https://johnson.lightning.force.com/lightning/n/ReVera_Report

To access the page that generates the report, users will need the "Revera" permisssion set assigned.

On that page a user can generate a ReVera Report, or a ReVera recall report.

ReVera Report

The ReVera report is the standard process by which we provide student information to ReVera. We begin by selecting a program and entry year to filter the students we want to generate in the report.

The "Preview Applications" button can be used to get a list of students that will be generated in the report without actually running it.

The "Generate Report" button will generate the actual report, and provide it as a downloaded CSV file.

The following fields are provided in the report with matching headers:

DECISION_EMAIL_SENT_DATE__C
CURRENT_STATUS
SALESFORCEID
FIRST_NAME
LAST_NAME
EMAIL_ADDRESS

Application Selection

The report selects students to send based on the application. The criteria for application selection is as follows:

  • The associated program academic plan matches the selected program. Currently these options are available:
    • Program NameAcademic Plan Code
      Cornell Executive MBA AmericasCQEMBA-MBA
      Cornell Executive MBA (Metro NY)EMBA-MBA
      Executive MBA/MS in Healthcare LeadershipWJMBA-MBA
      Two-Year Ithaca MBABADM-MBA
  • The entry year on the application matches the selected entry year from the form.
  • Must have a Decision Email Sent  Date value earlier than the date the report is being run.
  • The application Internal Status field is one of 'Accepted', 'Offer', 'Contingent Offer', 'Deposit Required', 'Enrollment Form Required'
  • The application has not been sent to ReVera previously, which is recorded as the date sent in the application Revera Send Date field

ReVera Recall Report

For some applications, there can be cases where the application has been sent for a background check but we no longer want to perform that check. This is typically due to a change in application status. This report uses the following criteria:

  • The application status is not in the list 'Accepted', 'Offer', 'Contingent Offer', 'Deposit Required', 'Enrollment Form Required'
  • The "Revera_Send_Date__c" field is not empty
  • The "Revera_Recall_Date__c" field is empty

This report provides a much smaller list of fields, namely:

SALESFORCEID
FIRST_NAME
LAST_NAME
EMAIL_ADDRESS
DOB

Common Problems - for SF Support Staff

Missing Application

The most common issue with the ReVera report is students not being included. This is usually the result of either an application status that doesn't match the values we're looking for, or an application having been sent in a previous report.

Given an application ID, these can both be checked with the following SOQL query:

SELECT Name, Current_Status__c, Revera_Send_Date__c
FROM Adm_Application__c
WHERE Name = 'A-531556'

We can then verify the status is in the list above, and that the Revera_Send_Date__c field is empty.

Want to send application again

If an application has already been sent and the Revera_Send_Date__c field is not empty, setting this field to NULL will allow them to show up in a subsequent report. This can be accomplished with the following anonymous Apex:

String appId = 'A-531556';

Adm_Application__c app = [SELECT Name, Current_Status__c, Revera_Send_Date__c
FROM Adm_Application__c
WHERE Name = :appId LIMIT 1];

app.Revera_Send_Date__c = NULL;
app.Revera_Recall_Date__c = NULL;
update app;
