Setting Up Award Adjustment Reasons

To set up award adjustment reasons, use the Award Adjustment Reasons component (AWRD_ADJ_RSN_TBL).

Award adjustment reasons are institutionally defined reasons indicating why an award may be adjusted. Award adjustment reasons can be used for clarification when modifying an award and also for statistical tracking purposes. You can enter an award adjustment reason any time that you change an award on the award entry pages, but award adjustment reasons are required on the Professional Judgement page. Some sample award adjustment reasons come pre-delivered with Financial Aid, but you can modify, add, and delete these.

This section discusses how to create award adjustment reasons.
