OK I learned some things on my own.

I created the following batch_data_process.txt

USER user1
PROCESS gen_certs_2
SET_STATE new_process
ROLE Smartcard
SUBJECT_ALT_NAME_1 
email:us...@gdls.com,otherName:1.3.6.1.4.311.20.2.3;UTF8:us...@gdls.com
SUBJECT UID=user1,CN=Joe Blow,OU=Employees,DC=gdls,DC=com
LOA_MODE NORMAL
LOA 4

and added it to my dataexchange tar file

Then selected "QuickImport" which slurped up the dataexchange file. At 
this point, if I tried to reimport the same user I would get an error so I 
found that I could reset things by deleting the contents of file 
$OPENCADIR/var/openca/bp/users.txt and delete the contents of directory 
$OPENCADIR/var/openca/bp/users. Of course, this only works if your just in 
test dealing with one user ;)

And then I selected "Do one step for all workflows" Yes for both CA and BP 
key certificates. It then asked for the CA key twice (since I didn't 
create a seperate BP certificate).

I noticed that in the RA interface that it doesn't have any options to 
download the PKCS#12 file. Is this normal for the UI? Never fear, though, 
these files are located in $OPENCADIR/var/openca/bp/dataexchange 
directory. 

My next problem was to determine the PIN assigned. This can be done in the 
Batch UI by selecting Export PIN. I found that if you want to issue Export 
PIN more than once you will get an error. To clear the error, you have to 
delete the file $OPENCADIR/var/openca/bp/dataexchange/pin_list (BTW, this 
is the list of PINs exported).

My remaining issue is that our normal requests have extra fields like 
phone number, etc that aren't in the DN of the certificate. They are just 
additional request attributes. How can those be accomodated????
