What happens when Meredith chooses the DEERS Compare selection in the Actions column of the Browse Applicants screen?

When Meredith selects the DEERS Compare option in the Actions column of the Browse Applicants screen, the system initiates a comparison between the applicant's information and the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) data. This process verifies the applicant's eligibility for benefits or services by cross-referencing details such as names, dates of birth, and relationship statuses. If discrepancies are found, they may require further review or clarification before proceeding with the application. Ultimately, this step ensures the integrity and accuracy of the applicant's information.
