    If ApplicationNumber is given, it overrides LoanAuthAppList and LoanAuthLoanList. If ApplicationNumber is not given, and LoanAuthAppList is given, it must contain a comma-delimited list of SBA application numbers, and it overrides LoanAuthLoanList. If neither ApplicationNumber nor LoanAuthAppList is given, LoanAuthLoanList becomes mandatory and must contain a comma-delimited list of SBA loan numbers (10-digit format preferred). In all cases, the CLS login account must have read access to the requested loan(s). When a list is specified, all extracted loan authorization documents will be contained in a single XML file, as allowed by the SBA_ETran XML format.
