 * We’ve created a general job for all applications to go to, and after submitting
   the application we just get the message that the application doesn’t meet the
   requirements and the application never gets listed in the system. Are we missing
   something, or is there a trick to get the applications to go through and not 
   get that message.
 * Here’s the application form:

 * Thanks!

 * That form is overly complicated. I would suggest shortening the form. You don’t
   need all that data if your pre-qualifying candidates do you?
 * Example: Your Offical Use Only data – The form is looking for that data and submitting
   a form with blank/empty fields will error.
 * The Authorization Policy. Put that in one PDF or a separate Page and make it 
   part of the Approval Policy with (one Checkbox) “You acknowledge that checking
   this box that you have read and agreed to the following Policy” You captured 
   it electronically and they cannot proceed with submission if they don’t check
   the box. Don’t make your form so complicated.

 * Thanks for the guidance on the form. We’re still running into the same issues
   after simplifying things. I’m not sure if this is part of the issue or not, but
   in App Form Settings, there is an extra text field that keeps showing up at the
   bottom of the list no matter how often we try to delete it or change it.

 * Try deleting the last 2 fields (You can add one back in later) Then clear your
   browser cache.

 * Tried that a few different ways, and it didn’t work. The blank text field keeps
   sticking around. Is that field part of our issue? If so, any other thoughts on
   how to actually get rid of it?

 * That last field is normal. Try a very basic form with no more than say 6 fields
   on a test server if you have available. Then add another field. You might also
   try disabling all other plugins to see if it is conflict with another plugin.
