Enter Waiting List Placement and Removal 
Summary 
This User Guide reviews how to place an applicant on your program’s waiting list in the Client Data System (CDS) and how to remove an 
applicant. 
There are two sections in this User Guide:  
•  Enter New Waiting List Applicant 
•  Removal From the Waiting List  
Due to the dynamics of state government and the changing needs for the OASAS CDS (Client Data System), some items in this User Guide 
might have been removed from the live CDS.  Similarly, some new items may appear in the live system that are NOT reflected in this User 
Guide.
