CCCApply Bugs
NULL Value for Gender Field in Downloads
What's was happening:
Certain fields, such as the Gender field <gender>, that include a value of Null were not being stored and returned properly through the Download Client. They were storing and returning an empty string value "" or a blank string " ".
Expected behavior:
If the student skips the <gender> field question, the application should store and return _null_in the download file. As per the Data Dictionary/specification when a student does not interact with the Gender question. Per federal law - Office of Civil Rights - we cannot require that a student identify themselves with a specific gender; therefore this question cannot be a "required" question on the application.
Current behavior:
We corrected the application DB to store a Null value for Gender field <gender> and ensured the null value is correctly transferred to the Download Client.
Below are the four response values that should be stored and returned per the CCCApply Data Dictionary:
M - Male
F - Female
X - Decline to State
Null - no response
