 ===== Re-Testers ===== ===== Re-Testers =====
- +There are three types of re-testers. Each type must be handled differently. 
-If a candidate ​is retester, change the AuthorizationTransactionType to “A” and change ExamAuthorizationCount to 2. Check the EligibilityApptDateLast and LastUpdate is correct according to the processing sheet. This will be the candidates, expiration date (EligibilityApptDateLast) and the date of the file upload (LastUpdate). The (clientauthorizationID) must be unique. The candidate must have the same Client Candidate ID or a new account will be created and the candidate will not be able to schedule their exam. +  * Candidate needs eligibility window to be extended 
 +    * If candidate has NOT yet taken an exam and needs an extension to take the exam but they need to take it outside the eligibility window, then we need to alter the AuthorizationTransactionType to "​U"​ then update the EligibilityApptDateLast depending on approved date by PM. 
 +  * Candidate started but was unable to finish exam 
 +    * If a candidate ​went to the exam was unable to finish (clicked the wrong button causing them to get kicked out of the exam; fire in the building, etc.), the candidate will need new EAD file uploaded to Core FTP – only with approval from PM first. In the new EAD file, change the AuthorizationTransactionType to “U” and change ExamAuthorizationCount to 2. Update EligibilityApptDateLast according to PM. 
 +  * Candidate took exam, failed, and is taking it again 
 +    * If a candidate is a retester, the AuthorizationTransactionType should be “U” and ExamAuthorizationCount should be “1”. Check the EligibilityApptDateLast and LastUpdate is correct according to the processing sheet. This will be the candidates, expiration date (EligibilityApptDateLast) and the date of the file upload (LastUpdate). The (clientauthorizationID) must be unique. The candidate must have the same ClientCandidateID ​or a new account will be createdand the candidate will not be able to schedule their exam.
