In order to add

fields added in a release will only be available if you update your Download client files following the instructions in the Download Client User Guide, which

titleIf a new data field is added to the OpenCCC Account, such as the new Preferred Name fields, do I have to update all three Download XML files separately?
Answer: Yes. The data fields within the OpenCCC Account system are separate from the Standard, BOG and International Applications, but they are included in each download file via the Download Format XML for each application. In other words, each of your Application Download files will include a copy of the data fields that appear in the OpenCCC Account in order to identify the student's personal information and CCCID with each new submitted application. For each new data field added to the OpenCCC Account, first update the Download Client Jar File, then modify each Application Download Format XML file to include the new data field(s).
