Workflow Orchestration for Graduate Admissions Interviews and Selection: Maintain Document Versions and Changes

Graduate Admissions: review workflows for version tracking. Check source versions, input mappings and the values received by downstream nodes.

What this category's data looks like

This page addresses the graduate admissions re-examination and admission category, aggregating three types of materials: re-examination plans, candidate score sheets, and transfer/adjustment lists. The re-examination plan contains batch, subjects, weights, dates, and signature fields; the candidate score sheet contains candidate number, preliminary and re-examination scores, ranking, and review signature; the transfer/adjustment list contains adjustment batch, candidate information, proposed admission conclusion, and receipt. Material sources are department submissions, system exports, and manual compilation; the update cadence changes on a rolling basis with re-examination batches, score reviews, and adjustment progress, and field characteristics center on names, quantities, dates, signatures, and receipts. After entering workflow orchestration, the re-examination plan serves as the basis for branch determination, while the candidate score sheet and transfer/adjustment list serve as objects for item-by-item verification; together the three support the generation and synchronization of the version ledger and change records.

Configuration and implementation checks

This step is executed by workflow nodes (user selection and branching), outputting branch directions and interaction state records. The "version ledger and change records" are then completed by subsequent nodes continuing execution according to the branch. When a node is triggered, the conversation enters an interactive state and records the workflow state; after the user completes a selection, execution continues along the branch corresponding to the selected option.

Re-examination planWhether batch, subjects, weights, dates, and signature fields are complete and consistentVerify item by item the names, quantities, dates, and signatures within the plan, and run a trial to view the branch direction and interaction state records

Transfer/adjustment listWhether adjustment batch, candidate information, proposed admission conclusion, and receipt are completeCheck the names, quantities, and dates of the same record in the list and the score sheet, and check whether receipts and signatures are missing

Three common errors

  • Symptom: the names, quantities, and dates for the same candidate do not match between the score sheet and the transfer/adjustment list. Cause: the two materials are maintained separately, and item-by-item comparison was not performed using the current version as the sole basis.
  • Symptom: the re-examination plan has been updated, but the score sheet and transfer/adjustment list still reference the old version. Cause: versions were not synchronized; the old version is traceable, but references were not refreshed with the current version.
  • Symptom: the transfer/adjustment list lacks a signature or receipt, and the signature field in the re-examination plan is blank. Cause: receipts were not fully collected during material circulation, and signatures and receipts were not listed as mandatory check items during verification.

How to verify the setup

Feature acceptance: run trials option by option, check the branch directions and interaction states in the run records, and confirm that each option corresponds to one branch and that the selection result variable has been passed to subsequent nodes; use nodeId to locate nodes, use variables to reference variables, and run a trial to view the interaction state records.

Business testing: change one piece of content and see whether the version number and references are updated synchronously; confirm that the current version is unique, the old version is traceable, and references are synchronized.

  • Verify options and branch connections one by one in the node, and trigger once to view the node status and branch direction in the run records
  • Reference the selection result variable in subsequent nodes and run a trial to check the names, quantities, dates, and signature receipts of the re-examination plan, score sheet, and transfer/adjustment list
