Method OriginateStatus(DEPRECATED)

The OriginateStatus method is used to determine the current status of a prior application submitted to the SBA. One of the three optional parameters must be provided to identify the application.

See Generate_PIN for a description of how to provide the PIN input.

    Output in the WSDL:

    One major difference compared to ELend’s OriginateStatus is that all error information has to be returned in the response XML. In case of errors, both the error number and text message will be returned. Generally, the return of errors indicates that the application could not be located. The exception is warning/error messages related to the user’s account and password.

    The following are the login status messages that would be returned.

    AuthErrorNmb AuthErrorText Comment
    0 Login Successful None
    -1 (debugging information) Server error. Please send AuthErrorText to SBA.
    2 Login failed. Reason: 'Your password has expired. Use PasswordUpdate service to set new password for username parameter.
    99 (varies) Miscellaneous error. See AuthErrorText for explanation.
    Error: Invalid PIN Please give the valid PIN as input to login successfully.

    Note: All login problems other than password expired are passed back as 99. The only codes with any specific meaning are 0 and 2.
