Setting Up Loan Validation Edits for CRC
To set up loan validation edits for CRC, use the Maintain CRC Loan Edits component (SFA_CRC_EDITS) and Create Loan Edit Sets component (SFA_CRC_EDITDFT).
This section provides an overview on loan validation edits and discusses how to:
Define validation edit messages.
Create loan validation edit sets.
Loan edits verify that the loan origination data is valid for transmission to the receiving loan agency. All CommonLine loan validation edits must be defined in the Loan Edits/Message Table page. Financial Aid delivers a core set of edits to be used during loan validation. All CommonLine loan edits are equations written using the Equation Engine. Separate edits are created for both CRC and CL 4 loans. You can use the Equation Engine to create or modify equations to support loan agencies that are not defined as a CommonLine standard.

SFA_CRC_EDITDFT |
|
Create loan validation edit sets that are used when constructing loan destination profile records.

After they are added to a loan destination, you can further modify the edit sets to function according to the loan destination's business rules. |
