# At which statuses will applications sync to SIMS?

## This article will explain your options when choosing which applications or enquiries will sync to SIMS.

**Enquiries**

Active enquiries will automatically be in the sync and appear in SIMS when the sync runs during the day, this will usually be from 6.00am to midnight every 2 hours e.g. if the enquiry is made at 9.00am it will be synced to SIMS when the next syncs runs at 10.00am.

**Incomplete applications**

**![Incomplete](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Incomplete.png?width=396&height=61&name=Incomplete.png)**

New Pre-Admission students with the **Incomplete** application status will **not** appear in the sync until they have submitted their application. **We do not sync incomplete applications.**

**Completed applications**

**![Completed](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Completed.png?width=399&height=66&name=Completed.png)**

Once a Pre-Admission student application has been submitted the status will update to be **Completed**, the application will then be in the sync and the SIMS status will be ***Applied***.

**'Awaiting Reference'**

**![Awaiting Reference-1](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Awaiting%20Reference-1.png?width=402&height=67&name=Awaiting%20Reference-1.png)**

Submitted applications with **'Awaiting Reference'** status will put the application in the sync and the SIMS Status will be ***Applied***, they are similar to completed applications except the referee has not yet submitted their reference request form. Once they do so the application status will update to **Completed**.

**Declined or Withdrawn**

**![Declined](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Declined.png?width=400&height=68&name=Declined.png)![Withdrawn](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Withdrawn.png?width=401&height=69&name=Withdrawn.png)**

Applications can be declined or withdrawn at anytime, when an application status is updated to **Declined** the SIMS Status will change to ***Rejected*** when it syncs. 

Changing the application status to **Withdrawn** will put the application in the sync and the SIMS Status will be ***Withdrawal***.

**'Deadline Missed' or 'Waiting List'**

**![Deadline Missed](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Deadline%20Missed.png?width=399&height=68&name=Deadline%20Missed.png)![Waiting List](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Waiting%20List.png?width=400&height=68&name=Waiting%20List.png)**

Applications can be changed to 'deadline missed' or 'waiting list' at anytime but typically this might happen once the application has been submitted, when an application status is updated to **'Deadline Missed'** the SIMS Status will change to ***'Deadline Missed'*** when it syncs.

Changing the application status to **'Waiting List'** will put the application in the sync and the SIMS Status will be ***'Waiting List'**.*

**Making an offer**

**![Offer Made](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Offer%20Made.png?width=391&height=68&name=Offer%20Made.png)**

Making an offer to a student will update the offer status to **'Offer Made'**, this will then trigger the application to appear in the sync. The SIMS Status will be updated to ***Offered*** when it syncs. **The offer status is different from the application status.**

**Accepted or Declined**

**![Offer Accepted](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Offer%20Accepted.png?width=391&height=66&name=Offer%20Accepted.png)![Declined Offer](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Declined%20Offer.png?width=394&height=69&name=Declined%20Offer.png)**

The offer status will update to **Accepted** should the student accept their offer or **Declined** if the student declines their offer. The SIMS Status will update to ***Accepted*** when the application syncs or update to ***Withdrawal*** if the offer is declined. **If the application status is also updated to Declined the SIMS Status will update to be *Declined*.**

**Withdrawing an offer**

**![Offer Withdrawn](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Offer%20Withdrawn.png?width=393&height=68&name=Offer%20Withdrawn.png)**

Withdrawing an offer to a student will update the offer status to **'Offer Withdrawn'** in Admissions+, the application will then appear in the sync and the SIMS Status will revert back to be ***Applied***.

**Admitted application status**

**![Admitted](https://helpdesk.applicaa.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Admitted.png?width=398&height=67&name=Admitted.png)**

Once a student is on-roll their SIMS status will update to ***Admitted*** and also update to **Admitted** in Admissions+ then their application will **not** appear in the sync again as they are no longer a Pre-Admission student. **Changing the Admitted status to another status will not put the application back in the sync again.**
