    If ApplicationNumber is given, it overrides LoanAuthAppList. If ApplicationNumber is not given, LoanAuthAppList becomes mandatory and must contain a comma-delimited list of SBA application numbers. In either case, the CLS login account must have read access to the requested application(s). When a list is specified, all documents will be contained in a single XML file, as allowed by the SBA_ETran XML format.
