Background
A candidate record is the highest level record representing a unique individual who has a relationship with any ASWB Service or product. This record is created at the first occurrence of four possible events
an approval is received from a jurisdiction,
the candidate applies to the ASWB Registry
an educator purchases an GRPQ from ASWB
the applicant submits a paper application for a MA license (the paper application is now retired and no longer used).
Currently, Massachusetts online applications, and pre-approval applications in ASWBCentral (CO, UT, TX) do not create candidate IDs when the accounts for accessing those applications are created.
There are a number of different items which are associated to the Candidate ID throughout the various systems and the table below reflects the different systems and processes.

Items to be considered
As the Registry remains connected to the Legacy database and will be creating / accessing Candidate information, any Candidate ID created in ASWBCentral must be synchronized into the Legacy database immediately.
