(NLD) Managing Studielink

This chapter provides an overview of Studielink functionality for the Netherlands and discusses how to:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Studielink

From 2006, participating higher education institutions in the Netherlands must enable their student information system (SIS) to communicate with Studielink, the new centralized admissions and enrollment system. For participating institutions, Studielink replaces the CBAP (Centraal Bureau Aanmelding en Plaatsing) admissions process.

Studielink requires constant communication between the institution and the Studielink system. This communication extends beyond the admissions application process to the student's annual re-enrollment while matriculating at their institution. Electronic messages are defined for all interactions between the institution and Studielink. As the status of the student's application and matriculation changes, the institution must immediately update the Studielink system; as the student reports status changes directly to Studielink, the Studielink system must send messages to update the institution. There are approximately 30 distinct electronic messages that can be shared between Studielink and the institution.

This diagram provides an overview of the process:

Studielink information process flow

Communication between Studielink and the institution is in the form of individual XML messages. Specifications for each message type are available from the Studielink website.

The following is a high level overview of how Campus Solutions processes the Studielink messages:

  1. Studielink sends messages to the Campus Solutions system. The message data may include admission applications.

  2. The Campus Solutions system automatically loads the inbound messages into the staging tables.

  3. Run the Post Studielink Messages process to post the messages into the application tables. The posting process creates Campus Solutions personal and application records for the new applications. The posting process uses the search/match parameters to determine whether the applicant already exists in the PeopleSoft database or is a new applicant. For existing applicants or students, the posting process may update Studielink specific Campus Solutions status fields, add or remove prior education schools and courses, add or change fees payment data, and process withdrawal, cancellation or re-enrollment requests.

  4. You may have to use a Campus Solutions page or an equation to determine if a message should be sent to Studielink. In some cases, the system can automatically determine if the messages should be sent. For example, the system automatically determines when the Receipt of Application (31A) message should be generated. On the other hand, to indicate that the Student's prior education is deficient or sufficient (31K) message should be sent, you can select the 31K check box on the Application Regional page or the Academic Prog Higher Education page, or use an equation.

  5. Run the Generate Studielink Message process to generate messages that you want to send to Studielink. This process fills data into the outbound staging tables, checks data content, and generates XML messages.

See http://www.surffoundation.nl/smartsite.dws?ch=STL for XML message specifications.

Oracle's PeopleSoft Integration Broker is the technology used to facilitate the transmission of messages between Studielink and the institution. Integration Broker is installed as part of the PeopleTools installation process. You must upgrade to 8.48.17 or a higher version of PeopleTools to connect to Studielink.

This section discusses how to :

Mapping Education Codes to Academic Programs

The Education Type Code that is contained in many of the Studielink messages identifies the academic program of the student within PeopleSoft Campus Solutions. In order for the appropriate academic program to be assigned to the student, the Studielink education code must be mapped to the valid academic program.

First, the CIP Code Table (Classification of Instructional Programs Code Table) (CIP_CODE_TABLE) component must be used to store all of the Studielink education code values. Institutions should request a complete list of education codes from Studielink. Next, use the Academic Program Table (ACADEMIC_PROG_TBL) component to assign the appropriate CIP code to the academic program that the code represents. Once completed, the Studielink posting process assigns the correct academic program when creating the student's admissions application. This setup is required. Institutions that have implemented CBAP functionality were required to perform the same setup tasks.

Assigning Campus and Campus Location Codes

Each academic program has a campus defined on the Taxonomy/Campus page in the Academic Program Table component. The assigned campus must have an associated location code. The location code must be defined for the correct SetID where the address information is complete. Studielink uses the location assigned to the campus to determine the city location for reporting to Studielink.

Setting Up Home Campus NLD Values

The Dutch Ministry of Education assigns BRINcodes and Sub BRINcodes to each institution. On the Home Campus NLD page, use the Campus group box to assign the Sub BRINcodes and internal BRINcodes to each campus where each academic program is offered. To set up internal BRINcodes, use the BRINcode Table page (Set Up SACR, Foundation Tables, Academic Structure NLD, BRINcode Table NLD). To set up Sub BRINcodes, use the SUB-BRINCODE Table page (Set up SACR, Foundation Tables, Academic Structure NLD, SubBrincodeTable NLD). In the Campus Academic Load group box, enter the approved academic load values for your campus. You must define this information for all Studielink eligible academic programs. When applications for enrollment are sent to the institution from Studielink (Message 03), the posting process uses this information to verify that the program is offered at the institution at the requested location.

Access the Home Campus NLD page (Set Up SACR, Foundation Tables, Academic Structure, Academic Program Table, Home Campus NLD).

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Academic Plans for Studielink

Access the Academic Plan Table page (Set Up SACR, Foundation Tables, Academic Structure, Academic Plan Table).

Institutions that participate in Studielink are required to create academic plans that have the same value as the Studielink Alternative Program code values. The Studielink posting process uses the alternative program code value for the default academic plan. If no alternative program code is specified in the message, or if a matching plan is not defined, the system uses the default academic plan assigned for the academic program.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up BRINcode and Institution Cross-References

Access the BRINcode/Institution Cross-reference page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, BRINcode/Institution Xref).

The Dutch Ministry of Education requires that institutions use their assigned BRINcode in all official communications. Each BRINcode is specific to an institution and a location. Therefore, each institution can have multiple BRINcodes.

The Studielink posting process requires that the valid BRINcodes for each institution are defined in order to correctly identify messages. Messages that contain BRINcodes not defined in this component are not posted to the application tables. The posting process assigns an institution to the student based on the BRINcode that is received.

BRINcode

Enter the Dutch Ministry of Education BRINcode that you want to map to your academic institution.

Academic Institution

Enter the academic institution that corresponds to the BRINcode.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Civil and Marital Status Cross-references

Access the Civil Status/Marital Status Cross-reference page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Civil Status/Mar Status Xref).

When student bio-demographic data is updated from Studielink, the civil status that is reported must be mapped to an appropriate PeopleSoft Campus Solutions value. If not, the component interface that updates the PeopleSoft Campus Community tables will fail if it encounters a value that cannot be translated.

Civil Status

This value is received from Studielink.

Marital Status

Enter the PeopleSoft Campus Solutions value that corresponds to the Studielink value.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Search/Match Data

Studielink users must create their own Search/Match rules and search parameters for the posting process. The posting process uses the Search/Match process to determine if an existing EmplID exists for admission application messages received from Studielink.

The following table lists the fields on the admission application Message 03 that are used for executing the Search/Match process. The corresponding search field is defined to assist you to create your institution's Search/Match rules and parameters.

Additionally, the posting process uses the Studielink Number in the inbound messages to determine if the student's EmplID already exists in the system. The Studielink Number is a unique identifier that Studielink assigns to each applicant.

This section discusses how to:

Setting Up Search Match Rules

Access the Search/Match Rule page (Set Up SACR, System Administration, Utilities, Search/Match, Search/Match Rule).

Several Search/ Match rules will probably need to be created to ensure that the Studielink application records are properly evaluated. You must define all your Search/Match rules before you create the search parameters.

See Searching for Records and Using Search/Match.

Setting Up Search Parameters

Access the Search Parameters page (Set Up SACR, System Administration, Utilities, Search/Match Parameters, Search Parameters).

Enter the search fields in the appropriate search order.

Setting Up Search Permissions

Access the Search Permissions page (Set Up SACR, System Administration, Utilities, Search/Match, Search/Match Parameters, Search Permissions).

Select the Full Access check box. Enter SAD_SL_LOAD_PARMS in the Component Name field.

This allows the system to select search parameters from the Studielink Load Parameters component and create the Studielink message posting parameter settings.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Studielink Address Usage

Access the Studielink Address Usage page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Studielink Address Usage).

The three address types that can be communicated between an institution and the Studielink system are billing, mailing and permanent. The system uses PeopleSoft Campus Community address usage functionality to provide a flexible method for identifying the address type to update when information is received from Studielink. This also controls the address that is sent in messages originating from the institution.

Studielink Address Type and Address Usage

Assign an Address Usage value for each Studielink Address Type value.

Email Usage

Enter a usage value that the system uses to determine which email address should be used to process inbound messages 03, 04 and 05. You cannot control the email usage for outbound messages. The outbound email type for message 04 is always of type PERM.

Address Usage Table

This section discusses two setup pages, the Admissions Program Action & Studielink Status Mapping page and the Student Records Program Action & Studielink Status Mapping page, which enable you to map program actions and action reasons for withdrawals to Studielink statuses and end reasons.

The following rules apply to this mapping.

Setting Up Withdrawal Action Reasons For Applicants

Access the Admissions Program Action & Studielink Status Mapping page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Withdrawal Action Mapping, Admissions Setup).

Setting Up Withdrawal Action Reasons For Students

Access the Student Records Program Action & Studielink Status Mapping page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Withdrawal Action Mapping, Student Records Setup).

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Studielink Search/Match Parameters

Access the Studielink Search/Match Setup page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Studielink Load Parms, Studielink SearchMatch Setup).

Assign the Add, Update, or Suspend settings for the search parameters.

Search Parameter

Select from the parameters that were created in the Search Parameters page. Only parameters with search permissions granted to the SAD_SL_LOAD_PARMS component can be selected.

When multiple matches occur for the same rule, the system suspends the record.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Studielink Start Occasion

The system uses the Start Occasion fields in the Start Occasion and Start Year pages to process inbound and outbound messages. Studielink enforces the "Instroom moment" that exists in the Studielink admission application. Therefore, the Campus Solutions Start Occasion values must have been set up to match the "Instroom moment" value in the Studielink admission application.

Access the Start Occasion page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Studielink Start Occasion, Start Occasion).

Use the Start Occasion page to set up a Start Occasion that is relevant for applicants or matriculated students who do not have a re-enrollment record. To retrieve the Start Occasion values for these applicants and students, the system finds out the Start Occasion value for the relevant admit term or admit type for an academic year and start month set up on the Start Occasion page.

The system finds out the applicant's Start Month from the Application Regional Page.

Academic Institution

Select the Studielink participating institution for which you want to set up the start occasion values.

Start Option

Select Admit Term or Admit Type to define Start Occasion values for one or more admit terms or admit types respectively.

Start Month Option

If you select Manual, the  Start Date (Month) field appears and the system uses the value you enter in the Start Date (Month) field. The Effective Date value does not have any effect on the system.

Academic Year, Admit Term, Admit Type

Enter the admit term or type and academic year for which you want to define start occasion values.

Start Occasion

Specify the Unique Start Occasion, which must match the Studielink "Instroom moment" that exists in the Studielink admission application.

 Start Date (Month)

Enter the month for the start occasion.

Access the Start Year page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Studielink Start Occasion, Start Year).

Use the Start Year page to set up Start Occasion values, for students, who after matriculation have been re-enrolled for a consecutive academic year. You can re-enroll a student for a consecutive year by entering a effective dated row with the RENR program action in the Academic Prog Higher Education page (Records and Enrollment, Higher Education NLD, Student Records Higher Edu NLD). To retrieve the start occasion value for these type of students, the system assesses the student's Start Month from the effective date of the Student Records Higher Education row that has a program action of RENR. Then the system selects the start occasion value for the Start Month that is defined in the Start Year page.

Descriptions for fields in the Start Year page are similar to the fields in the Start Occasion page.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Program Action Reason Codes

You must set up several program action reason codes for Studielink admissions and enrollment processing. The values are assigned by the managing of Studielink messages by the posting process, or by users as they update a student's admissions application or enrollment status. These codes provide you with more meaningful descriptions when data is modified within the Maintain Applications (ADM_APPL_MAINTNCE) component.

See Setting Up Admissions Program Actions and Program Action Reasons.

The following table lists program action reason codes used in Studielink processing that must be set up by the school:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting Up Studielink Message Equations

An optional process using the Equation Engine determines whether the system should transmit a message to Studielink. Use the Studielink Equation Setup page to assign an equation to perform the evaluation for the desired Studielink message.

Note. Some messages will not require an equation.

The PeopleSoft system delivers a set of Studielink-specific equations as part of Equation Engine. You can use the delivered equations as a starting point for designing your own equation or you can modify these equations according to your requirements. However, you cannot alter the key structure for the delivered equations without modifying the Studielink Equation Engine Process Cobol program. We recommend that you do not modify the Studielink Equation Engine Process Cobol program.

The following lists the key structure of the equations:

Use equations only when manual user intervention or automatic triggering of Studielink messages are not required. Equation engine does not send a Studielink Message but selects the Transmit Message check box for the message on the Studielink Transmissions page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Student Transmission Status) and the Student Transmission Override page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Student Transmission Override).

See Understanding Message Equations.

Access the Studielink Equation Setup page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Studielink Equation Setup).

Studielink Message

Enter the Studielink message that the equation process should evaluate.

Equation Name

Enter the equation that will perform the evaluation.

The following is an example of how an equation could work for Message 10:

  1. Make a change to the student's Prior Education Verification status in the Campus Solutions system through a batch process you have created.

  2. Run the Studielink Message Evaluation process.

  3. If the verification status has been changed, the ADDSLMSG10 equation triggers sending of an outbound message by selecting the Prior Education (10) check box on the Studielink Transmissions page to indicate that a message should be generated when the Generate Studielink Messages process is run.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSetting up Foreign Addresses

Access the Foreign Address Setup page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Setup Studielink, Set-Up Outbound Foreign Addr)

For outbound messages, the system uses the mapping on this page to determine from which address fields on the Personal Information page it should pick information and store it in SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR1, SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR2 and SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR3 columns of the Studielink address staging table. For example, suppose you have mapped SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR3 to Postal and City for France. The system, to generate an outbound message for a French student, retrieves the student's postal and city values, and stores the values in the SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR3 column of the address table.

Country

Enter the country for which you want to map the address fields.

Foreign Address

Select SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR1, SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR2 or SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR3 to which you want map the Campus Solutions address fields.

Address 1, Address 2, Address 3

Select the Campus Solution address fields to map to the foreign address field. The system combines the Address 1, Address 2, Address 3 values (separated by tab) and inserts the combined value into the selected foreign address field. For example, if you have selected City and County to map to SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR2, the system separates the city and county values by a tab and inserts the values into the SAD_SL_FORGN_ADDR2 column of the address table.

PeopleSoft Integration Broker is used to establish connectivity with the Studielink system. Once connection is established, messages are transmitted between the institution and Studielink automatically. As messages are received from Studielink, they are automatically loaded in the staging tables. When the institution generates messages to Studielink, they are automatically sent after the data has been staged. The Integration Broker, provided in PeopleTools 8.48.17 or a higher version, is required for Studielink communications.

The "Getting Started with PeopleSoft Integration Broker" section in the Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleBook: PeopleSoft Integration Broker lists the skills of the developers who should perform PeopleSoft Integration Broker implementation.

The following table lists the service operations that have been delivered for Studielink. All the service operations listed below are for the Service SAD_STUDIELINK and Operation Type Synchronous.

Institutions must register on the Studielink website before they can receive Studielink messages. Once the institution has been registered, has provided their setup information, and their internet connectivity has been established, messages are sent to the institution automatically as students begin to use the Studielink website. The Integration Broker uses the application package SAD_STUDIELINK to process the messages that Studielink sends to the institution. The package validates whether the inbound messages conform to the xml message specifications. After validating the messages, the Integration Broker automatically loads the messages into the staging tables. You can use the Integration Broker Service Operations Monitor for Synchronous Services to view the messages that fail the xml validation check. Finally, run the Post Studielink Messages process to post the messages from the staging tables into the PeopleSoft Admission and Student Record tables.

The Studielink Message Data (SAD_SL_STAGE) component allows you to view the data of every message that has been loaded into the staging tables. The search record of the component provides selection criteria fields to allow you to search for the records that you require.

Click to jump to parent topicPosting Studielink Messages to Application Tables

This section provides an overview of the Studielink posting process and discusses how to:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding the Studielink Posting Process

The role of the posting process is to review each incoming message that has been loaded into the Studielink staging tables and to move the data from the message into the PeopleSoft Campus Solutions application tables for the corresponding student. When the data is loaded into the application tables, it can be reviewed and modified based on the institution's business requirements. Each message is processed based on the particular business process it represents. Some messages are specific to the admissions process, some messages are relevant only after the student has been enrolled, and other messages are independent of the student's admission or enrollment status.

Before a message can be loaded into the application tables, the posting process must determine the load parameters that need to be applied to the message. For most messages, this involves verifying that the reported BrinCode is valid for the institution (based on finding a valid BRINcd/Institution Xref setting), and then deriving the academic institution and career from the education block fields of the message and using that information to find the matching Studielink load parameter setting. For some messages, Studielink load parameters are not required, and therefore this check is not performed. Messages will suspend if either of the two checks fail.

If the message passes the first checks, the process must next identify the student recipient of the message. In most cases, the Studielink ID number, contained in most of the messages, is used to identify the student in the database. In the case of Message 03 (application for enrollment), however, if the student cannot be identified using the Studielink ID then Search/Match is also used. For all other messages for which the Studielink ID fails to identify the student, the system suspends the record and it must be resolved manually.

After the student has been identified, the posting process then validates the information contained in the message. For most messages, this involves verifying that the information contained in the education block section of the message is valid for either the institution or the student. For Message 03, the BRINcode, CIP Code (program), sub institute number, and enrollment manner must be valid for the institution (this is set up in the Academic Program Table on the Taxonomy/Campus and Home Campus NLD pages). If invalid, the message suspends. Otherwise, the system creates an admissions application for the student. For other messages that provide the education block fields, the posting process verifies that the field values match those of the student before the message can be loaded. If any message cannot be loaded properly, the system suspends it and displays the reason so that you can decide on the corrective action necessary to process the message information.

Search, Match and Post

For Message 03 records, if the Studielink ID number is not found, the Search/Match process then attempts to identify the EmplID. Once a positive match occurs, or a new EmplID is required to be created, the message then posts to the application tables.

For all other messages, the EmplID is determined by matching the student's Studielink ID number. If a match is found, the system posts the message into the application tables.

Post Only

For Message 03 records, all records that have been identified or assigned to an EmplID post to the application tables. The Search/Match process is not used.

For all other messages, the system attempts to match the EmplID to student's Studielink ID. If a match exists, the message posts into the application tables.

Search and Match only

This option applies to Message 03 records only. The process attempts to identify the EmplID using the Search/Match process. The transaction status is updated to Partial. No messages are posted to the application tables.

All other message types are ignored.

The Studielink Inbound application engine process (SAD_SL_IN) moves the data from the staging tables to the application tables. The message type determines how the system processes the data.

The following table describes how each incoming message is processed and the reasons that the message may not load and is suspended:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicResolving Messages that Suspend

There may be circumstances in which the message received from Studielink cannot be posted to the application tables. This is likely to occur in most cases with Message 03, since it is usually the first message received by the institution and generally results in the creation of the student and application records. When a message is unable to post, the system updates the transaction status of the message. At the same time, the system writes suspense information to a separate table.

This section discusses how to:

Determining the Transaction Status of a Message

The transaction status of a message is always updated as the posting program processes the message.

The transaction status values are:

Value

Used for Inbound/Outbound Messages

Comment

Processed

Both

All processing completed.

Suspended

Inbound

Posting process is unable to post message.

Available for review in the Suspense Management page.

Unprocessed

Both

Data has been loaded into the staging tables, but no processing has begun.

You can use this status when you run the posting or generate message process after fixing a suspense issue. Suppose, an inbound message 03 has a Suspended status because BRIN/Institution has not been set up correctly. In this case, you perform the correct BRIN/Institution setup, then set the status as Unprocessed in the Suspense Management page and finally run the posting process again for the message.

Partially Processed

Inbound

Set when the posting process runs with the Search and Match Only option activated. The system populates the Suspense Reason, Max Match Level, and Matches fields to provide results of the student ID search.

Available for review in the Suspense Management page.

Transmission Error

Outbound

Unable to transmit successfully to Studielink.

Skip Transaction

Both

Manually set by user to prevent processing the message.

Manually Resolved

Inbound

Similar to transaction skip. User took manual action to resolve. The record is no longer processed.

Test Without XML

Outbound

Set when you run the Generate Studielink Messages process with the Send XML Messages check box cleared.

To view the transaction status for all inbound messages, use the search record for the Studielink Message Data page to select and view all messages containing a fixed transaction status.

Using Suspense Management Data

The Studielink Suspense Management page displays the information stored in the suspense table and is designed to explain why the inbound message did not post and to allow you to resolve certain suspense conditions. Because the system writes all messages that suspend (or are partially processed) to a suspense table, the Studielink Suspense Management page is the primary method for reviewing inbound messages with potential problems.

Because each message can have distinct reasons for suspending, the page is designed to provide the relevant tools necessary for resolving the suspense reasons for each message.

Access the Studielink Suspense Management page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Studielink Suspense Management).

The section of the page below the Suspense Reason information and above the Message Data link displays high-level information about the student. The system loads this information directly from the actual message. Student identification fields are displayed to assist in identifying the student in the database and can be used to resolve search match errors with message 03. For all other messages, the ID field will display the student's EmplID if the Studielink number is already in the database. The fields in the Education Block Fields group box are used to identify the data load parameters that the posting process applies for the record, and to determine the student's program of study. Use the Message Data link to access the staging table pages and view all the information contained in the message.

Depending on the type of message suspended, additional fields appear below the Message Data link. They can help resolve the suspend conditions of the message. Depending on the reason for the suspension (as with Message 03), enter the appropriate information to allow the message to be processed.

When the posting process cannot determine which admissions application of the student to update with the message data (as with Messages 08, 19, and 39) because the student has multiple application records, you must assign the correct admissions application to update.

When the posting process cannot determine which academic career of the student to update with the message data (as with Message 25) because the student has multiple active academic programs, you must assign the career and career number to update.

Campus

Assign the appropriate campus in order to process message 03. This value will be validated against the home campuses defined for the academic program by the posting process.

Academic Program

Assign the appropriate academic program for the message based on the reported Program (CIP) code. This value will be validated against the academic program by the posting process.

Studielink Posting Action

Use this field to resolve student identification issues. Indicate how the posting process should treat the message. Values are:

Add (A): The posting process creates a new EmplID and creates an admissions application record from the message data. The Student ID must be blank.

Recycle (R): The posting process processes the message using the Studielink load parms settings. This is the default setting for all suspended application messages.

Update Existing Student (U): The posting process posts the message data to the listed Student ID. The Student ID cannot be blank.

Max Match Level

The Search/Match process sets this number. It indicates the order number in the Studielink Search/Match Setup page where a match occurred.

Matches

The Search/Match process sets this number. It indicates the number of EmplIDs that met the same Max Match Level criteria.

Student ID

You can use this field to search for the matching student ID to update. The Search/Match process usually assigns this. This field is used in conjunction with the Studielink Posting Action field.

Application Number

Appears for suspended messages 08, 19, or 39. This field allows you to specify the Admissions application number to which the message should load.

Academic Career

Appears for suspended messages 25. This field allows you to specify which academic career the message will update when more than one active career exist for the student.

Student Career Nbr (Student Career Number)

Appears with the Academic Career field. This field allows you to specify which student career number the message will update. This field must be updated with the Academic Career field.

The following table lists possible suspend messages and the appropriate resolution instructions:

Use the Studielink Suspense Management page to select the appropriate PeopleSoft Student Records data (Academic Career, Career Number) to load the message.

The system is unable to process this message because the student has a future-dated Student Records data row (720).

The message cannot be loaded. Review the message data and add any required information manually.

The student number in this message was not found in the system (725).

Message 30 could not be processed because the Student Number field reported in the message does not match an EmplID. Request an updated message from Studielink with the correct student number.

The Student ID supplied has a Studielink number already associated with it that does not match the Studielink number in the message (722).

Resolve conflicting Studielink numbers.

Invalid Birth Date for Student (1013)

The birth date supplied by Studielink is greater than the system date, which is not allowed.

Invalid Royal Prefix (1014) or Invalid Partner Prefix (1015)

The name royal prefix value supplied by Studielink is invalid. The message has been processed and placed in the suspense table. The message suspends because the name royal prefix is invalid, that is, the incoming value does not match with any values in the Name Royal Prefix table (Set up HRMS, Foundation Tables, Personal, Royal Name Prefix). In this case, the error does not require a full suspense. Therefore, the applicant is processed into the system without the invalid name royal prefix value.

Correct the name royal prefix for a particular person by accessing the Names page (Campus Community, Personal Information, Biographical Details, Names). Then set the message to manually resolved using the Transaction Status field on the Studielink Suspense Management page. Also, ensure that name royal prefix values supplied by Studielink match values in the Campus Solutions name royal prefix table.

Invalid Marital Status (1016)

The marital status values have not been set up on the Civil Status/Marital Status Cross-reference page.

Invalid Email Address (1017)

The email address supplied by Studielink does not conform to email format standards.

Name Missing (1026)

Last Name supplied by Studielink is invalid

Invalid Prior Education Value (1027)

The Prior Education (or subject) value supplied by Studielink is invalid. The message has been processed if a subject was invalid. Set the message to manually resolved and add the Prior Education subject using the Student Prior Education Information page.

Invalid Acad Plan (1118)

The supplied academic plan cannot be matched or a valid default academic plan cannot be found in the system for the program data supplied. Most common cause is that Studielink setup of alternative programs does not match the Campus Solutions setup of academic plans.

Foreign Address Found (1121)

Foreign address was found. Messages containing a foreign address need to be manually resolved.

Double Admissions Found (1123)

For this admission request, there is already an active admission or student records row which matches the academic career, academic program, academic plan, and BRINcode in the request. This will need to be manually resolved using the Admissions Suspense Management page (Student Admissions , Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Admissions Suspense Management).

Use this table to determine what the corrective action is required for the suspended message. For Message 03, there is additional functionality provided on the page to resolve Search/Match errors.

Resolving Search Errors for Message 03

For Message 03, you can manually set the Studielink posting action to override the posting process. This method can be used when you want to override the Search/Match process and manually assign the EmplID (or force the creation of a new EmplID).

Resolving Suspend Errors

The Suspend Message and Resolution instructions table describes the conditions that may cause the message to suspend. View the Suspense Reason on the page to see the specific reason. Next, use the table to determine how to resolve the problem. If you determine that any message should not be loaded, update the transaction status to either skip or manually resolved, as appropriate for the situation. The posting process will then ignore these suspended records in the future.

Resolving Suspended Foreign Address

The third party application for Studielink has only three fields for storing foreign address data. The following example shows the three address fields in the suspense page that stores the incoming address data:

To manually resolve the address data, move the Foreign Address Line 1, Foreign Address Line 2 and Foreign Address Line 3 field values to the Personal Information page's address fields. Set the Studielink Transaction Status to Unprocessed after all suspense issues have been resolved and reprocess this record by running the Post Studielink Messages process.

Resolving Suspended Duplicate Admission Requests

Students may enter up to four admissions requests for any given program of study during an academic year.

Examples of admission requests could be:

The former CBAP admissions load ensured that only one admission request for one program was supplied for an applicant. Studielink allows applicants to submit a maximum of four admission applications for the same program, plan, and BRINcode.

In order to make administrative processes easier, especially for institutions who matriculate students early in the admissions process, and do not create several student career number entries for one student program, the Campus Solutions system suspends all duplicate admission requests (same program, plan, career, institution, and BRINcode) in the Admissions Suspense Management page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Admission Suspense Management).

The following example of the Admissions Suspense Management page shows a suspended record that has a single admission request for the same program.

The Admissions Suspense Management page with Education Block Fields example displays the suspended record. The suspended record is Message 03, which the system has received, loaded and suspended. Click the Message data link to navigate to the Message 03 staging table display only page.

The Admissions Suspense Management page with Current Admissions Fields example indicates that the application already exists in the system. You can use the Application Maintenance link to navigate to the application existing in the system.

You can choose one of the following methods to resolve the issue:

Reject Admission

Click to create message 31Z.

Revoke Admission Rejection

Click to delete created message 31Z. This is possible for 31Z messages that have not been sent to Studielink.

This section provides an overview of generating messages and message equations and discusses how to:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding How Messages to Studielink Are Generated

After a student becomes part of the Studielink system (either by receiving an admission application or by the institution registering its current enrolled students), changes to the student's information must be reported to Studielink. In some cases, students initiate changes (for example, changes to personal information and requests for re-enrollment) by logging on to the Studielink website. In other cases, institutions report changes to Studielink in the form of specific electronic transactions. This section discusses messages that must be sent from the institution to Studielink.

The messages that can be sent to Studielink fall into several categories: those that can only be sent as part of the admissions application process, those that can only be sent after the student has been matriculated and enrolled, and those that are not dependent on either condition.

You can initiate messages to Studielink in several ways. For an applicant, when you determine that information should be sent to Studielink, you can indicate the messages to be sent by manually setting the Transmit check box on the Application Regional page for the information to be sent directly from the admissions maintenance component.

For a student, when you determine that information should be sent to Studielink, you can indicate the messages to be sent by manually selecting the Transmit check box on the Academic Prog Higher Education page for the information to be sent directly from this component (Records and Enrollment, Higher Education NLD, Student Records Higher Edu NLD).

You can also use the Student Transmission Override page to set the transmit status for the appropriate messages that you want to send. If you select the appropriate transmission check box, the system will generate a message and send it to Studielink when the Generate Studielink Message process is run. When using the override page, you are responsible for ensuring that the data to be transmitted for each message has been correctly set in the source data pages.

Alternatively, you can use the Studielink Message Evaluation process to automatically determine if a message should be sent. This process uses the Equation Engine to allow you to define the conditions for determining whether to send a particular message. This process determines whether a particular message should be transmitted; if it should, the system selects the appropriate transmission override check box – the same check boxes that you can set manually. The process is not designed to cancel messages marked to be sent – it cannot clear any of the transmission check boxes. When the Generate Studielink Message process runs, these messages are then generated and transmitted.

It is expected that institutions will use a combination of methods to initiate the transmission of messages to Studielink. Institutions should develop the business processes that they will use to meet the conditions of the messages that they want to transmit. This analysis should indicate whether a message will be initiated manually, by equation process, or both.

Once messages have been updated to send, you can run the Generate Studielink Message process. This process populates the necessary message data into the staging tables, creates the physical messages, and then transmits them to Studielink. Once a message has been successfully generated, the process updates the transmit status check boxes to a blank value and the record of the transaction appears in the Student Transaction Summary page.

The following table describes the expected user actions that would trigger the transmission of the Studielink message:

Message to Studielink

* Automatically generated.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Message Equations

Instead of manually setting messages to be generated and sent to Studielink, you can use the functionality of the Studielink Message Evaluation process to automatically perform this action. This process utilizes PeopleSoft Equation Engine to allow you to define your business rules to initiate a message to be sent to Studielink.

The design of the equation process allows a separate equation to be assigned for any message type. The equation should be written to evaluate whether a student meets the criteria of the message and return a Pass/No Pass result. When the equation is executed, any equation that passes causes the appropriate check box in the Studielink Transmissions page to be selected. Equations can only be used to identify messages to be sent. They cannot be used to cancel the sending of a message already queued.

The PeopleSoft system provides the basic equations for most messages. You can customize the delivered equations to meet the needs and business processes of your institution.

Note. To create custom equations, instead of modifying the existing equation, you should copy the equation using a new equation name and then modify the new equation. This preserves your equations from upgrades.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicReviewing Pending Outbound Messages

Access the Studielink Transmissions page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Student Transmission Status).

This page enables limited access users the ability to see which messages are queued for transmission. Users have access to update the Evaluate Student check box.

The Evaluate Student check box is used to identify those records that will be eligible to generate messages to Studielink. This check box becomes active when either Message 03 is loaded, or when an application is entered manually for a Studielink applicant. When the message creation and evaluation process runs, the process selects only those records for processing. Clearing the check box stops all communication to Studielink.

If any of the message check boxes are selected, this indicates that the message will be generated and sent to Studielink the next time that the Generate Studielink Message process runs. The Transmit Date column indicates the last time that the corresponding message was sent.

Access the Studielink Transmission Override page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Student Transmission Override).

If you have access, you can manually select messages to be generated. Select the appropriate check boxes to indicate which messages you want to send to Studielink for a student.

Warning! You should be careful when manually setting a message to send. Ensure that the student's information has been updated so that the message is generated with the correct information.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicDetermining Outbound Messages

Access the Studielink Message Evaluation page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Studielink Message Evaluation).

Institution

Enter the institution for which the message evaluation process will be run.

Academic Year

Enter the academic year for those equations that require the academic year passed to the evaluation. Refer to the list of provided equations to determine which equations use this value.

Note. This field is not used as a selection criterion.

When the process runs, the system does the following:

  1. Selects for processing all student records for which the Evaluate Student check box has been selected (PS_SAD_SL_TRANSMIT.SAD_SL_EQTN_STAT = 'Y') and where the student has been assigned a Studielink ID number.

  2. Executes all the equations that have been set up.

  3. If the equation passes (the conditions are met), the corresponding Message Status field becomes Y.

    This appears as a selected check box on the Studielink Transmission Status page.

  4. If the equation fails (the conditions are not met), nothing happens.

  5. If a message is currently activated for transmission, the process does not run the equation.

The process log that is generated will list each student record that has passed any equations. If any messages are queued to be generated, the Generate Studielink Message process can now be run to generate and transmit these messages.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicSending Outbound Messages to Studielink

Access the Generate Studielink Messages page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Generate Studielink Messages).

Enter the academic institution for which you want to generate outbound messages. The system will create the appropriate XML messages and send them to Studielink

When the Generate Studielink Message process runs, the system does the following:

  1. Selects the records for the academic institution with messages selected in the Studielink Transmission page.

  2. Assembles each message in the XML staging tables.

    You can view these messages in the Studielink Message Data component. These messages have a blank Transaction Status value.

  3. For each student where a message is to be generated, a row appears in the Student Transaction Summary component.

    The system automatically transmits messages to Studielink as they are generated.

Once the institution has established a connection with Studielink, messages are transmitted. For each message sent, a response record returns to the institution to acknowledge the receipt of the message. The system continues to attempt to send the message to Studielink until the message is successfully received. At this point the Transaction Status value in the Studielink Message Data component is set to P - Processed. If an error occurs during the transmission, the Transaction Status value is set to E - Transmission error.

Ensure that you select the Send XML Messages check box for all normal processing. Clearing this check box enables you to test the outbound process without generating the actual XML message. If you clear the check box, the process fills the staging tables with data and you can then review the staging data using the Studielink Message Data component. You can use this method of clearing the Send XML Messages check box for testing on testfloor environments.

Access the Outbound Suspense page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Outbound Suspense Management, Outbound Suspense).

Access the Prior Education page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Outbound Suspense Management, Prior Education).

Access the Address page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Outbound Suspense Management, Address).

The Generate Studielink Messages process will populate the staging tables with data and evaluate whether the data in the Campus Solutions tables meet the requirements as defined by Studielink. If the data in the Campus Solutions tables do not meet the Studielink requirements or if fields required for Studielink are missing, the process suspends the message in the Outbound Suspense Management component (SAD_SL_SUSPOU_MGMT). For the suspended message, the Transaction Status field displays the value Suspended. The Suspense Reason field displays the reason for suspending the message. The component also displays one or more error messages and lists the necessary corrective action.

Select the Process from CS Tables check box if you want to correct the message data in the Campus Solutions tables. If you select the Process from CS Tables check box and then run the Generate Studielink Messages process, the process re-selects all values from the Campus Solutions tables for generating the outbound message. You need not select this check box, if you want to correct the message data in the Outbound Suspense Management component. For example, if you have corrected the data in the Outbound Suspense Management component, cleared the Process from CS Tables check box, and then run the Generate Studielink Messages process, the process selects values supplied on the Outbound Suspense Management component to generate the outbound message.

The following scenarios illustrate how you can correct the message data:

The following table lists the error messages and the required corrective action:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicProcessing Student Re-enrollment Requests

Students must re-enroll each academic year at their institution. Students who are registered with Studielink must initiate this process directly with Studielink. After the student has notified Studielink of their re-enrollment request, a Message 25 is generated and sent to the institution. This is the institution's official notification of the student's re-enrollment. When the institution has ensured that the student has met the re-enrollment requirements, it sends a Message 31C to Studielink to report the status. Students who choose not to re-enroll must also notify Studielink of their decision. Studielink also needs to notify the institution of this status change.

A student is considered re-enrolled when two rows exist in the Academic Prog Higher Education page for the upcoming academic year. One is a RENR row which indicates the request for re-enrollment. The second is a PAYM row, which indicates that the student has made payment for the upcoming year.

Processing Re-enrollment Requests from Studielink

For the institution, the process begins with the receipt of Message 25 from Studielink. The message automatically loads into the staging tables. When the posting process runs, the Studielink ID identifies the student and the re-enrollment information loads into the application. The system adds a new row to the Acad Prog Higher Education page where the Program Action Higher Education value is set to RENR – Re-Enrollment. All re-enrollment information contained in the message loads into the page, including payment information, if present, in the Studielink Payment Information group box.

Access the Academic Prog Higher Education page (Records and Enrollment, Higher Education NLD, Student Records Higher Edu NLD).

If the student has requested a change in manner (academic load) in Message 25, this will also cause a new row to be inserted in the student's academic program to reflect the change.

To complete the re-enrollment process, the student must pay their fees for the new year. Insert a new row in the page to verify that the student's payment has been accepted. The Program Action Higher Education value is set to PAYM – Payment.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicConfirming Re-enrollment

Access the Studielink Transmission Override page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Student Transmission Override).

Once the student's re-enrollment process is complete, the institution must send Message 31C to Studielink to notify them of the decision. Message 31C can be initiated manually by using the Studielink Transmission Override page and selecting the Confirm Re-enrollment (31C) check box and setting to appropriate re-enrollment year, or use the Studielink Equation process to automatically identify the student and initiate the message.

Processing Re-enrollment Cancellation Requests from Studielink

Students can request to not re-enroll for the following year. This is also communicated in Message 25. If this occurs, a new row is added to the Acad Prog Higher Education page where the Progr Action Higher Education value is set to NRNR – No Re-Enrollment. No response to Studielink is required.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicProcessing Student Withdrawal Requests

Students who want to withdraw from the institution in which they have been enrolled, or withdraw their application for admission, must initiate the process through Studielink. Once the request has been made, Studielink submits to the institution Message 35, which contains the withdrawal request. When the message posts, the system checks to see if the student has been admitted to the institution for the requested program. If the student is not yet admitted (Program Status is set to AP), the application is automatically cancelled during the posting process. You are not required to take any action. If the student is already admitted or matriculated, the cancellation request can be viewed in the Studielink Cancellation Request page. This page contains a list of all students with a cancellation or withdrawal request that has not been completed. As each student record is evaluated and processed by the administrator, the record is deleted from the page.

The following table lists what you must do to complete the review of cancellation requests received in Message 35:

Resolving Withdrawal Requests for Matriculated Students

If the student has already been matriculated and has paid tuition fees, the academic records staff process the student's withdrawal request and the student's academic program status becomes updated. In Studielink, when a matriculated and enrolled student requests a cancellation or withdrawal, the institution must report whether the request has been approved or declined. When a withdrawal request is denied, the record must be updated on the Studielink Cancellation Requests page. Document the explanation for the denial on the page and send it to Studielink in Message 31D. The system automatically sends it when the process status for the record is set to Complete and the request status is set.

When a withdrawal request is approved, you must update the student's academic program. You must also update the end date and the reason for the approval, and indicate whether tuition restitution will be granted in the Studielink Cancellation Requests page. The information is then ready to be sent to Studielink in Message 31E.

When a withdrawal request is not approved for a student, update the decision in the Studielink Cancellation Request page and generate Message 31D.

Resolving Withdrawal Requests in the Admissions Maintenance Pages

Admissions staff must update the status of students who have been admitted, but not yet program activated, at the time they request a cancellation of their admission. If approved, the staff must cancel the student's application and update the Studielink Cancellation Request page. If denied, update the Studielink Cancellation Request page to reflect the decision. The system generates either Message 31D or 31G when the page is updated.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicConverting Existing Students to Studielink

Institutions are required to register their current student population with the Studielink system. Institutions register their current students by generating a specially formatted application Message 34 for their eligible students and transmitting the message to Studielink. Studielink, in activating the student, issues a Studielink ID to each student.

A separate process enables you to generate this special conversion message, which is internally referred to as Message 34C. The process selects any active students (PS_ACAD_PROG.PROG_STATUS = 'AC') using the selection criteria defined in the run control page. If there is enough information necessary to generate a complete Message 34C, the system creates a message and sends it to Studielink.

Access the Generate Studielink Conversion Messages page (Student Admissions, Processing Studielink NLD, Process Studielink, Generate Studielink Conversion).

Resend Conversion Emplids

After you enter the required fields, select this check box to select individual student records for the conversion resend process. You can select only records that meet the selection criteria.

Running the Conversion Process

The conversion process attempts to create a complete Message 34C from the student's PeopleSoft Student Records information. If the information is complete, the system creates the message and makes it available in several Studielink pages throughout PeopleSoft Campus Solutions:

  1. The Student Studielink Transaction Summary page shows that the Message 34C was created and sent. From this page you can view the data contained in the message.

  2. The system inserts a new row into the Academic Prog Higher Education page to indicate the creation of the conversion process for the student and to assign the student's current Studielink status of I - Enrolled.

    The system also assigns a new Program Action Higher Education code of SLCN – Studielink Conversion.

  3. Once Studielink receives the conversion message, it assigns a unique Studielink number to the student and sends the information back to the institution in Message 30 (Studielink ID change).

Once the ID is assigned, the student is now considered an active Studielink participant. You can access the Studielink Education Block Information from the Detail link on the Academic Prog Higher Education page.

Resolving Cases when a Conversion Message Cannot be Generated

When the conversion process does not have enough information to generate a complete conversion message, the system writes missing data elements in the process message log for each student. Each missing data element requires a specific corrective action. When you correct all errors for a student, the process then generates and transmits the complete Message 34C.

The following table lists error messages and the required corrective action:
