Updating Financial Aid Progress Units

The Update FA Progress Units process updates the FA Progress Units field on the Student Enrollment record in Records and Enrollment. Specifically, this process:

  1. Updates the Unit Progress FA and Grade Points FA fields on the Student Enrollment record.

  2. Updates additional fields on the Student Enrollment record: Operator ID, Last update date, Last update time, and sets the Last Source Enrollment Update equal to "FA".

  3. Triggers an automatic statistics recalculation to FA fields on both the Student Career Term and Student Session records for the enrollment term.

  4. Triggers an automatic cumulative statistics recalculation to FA fields on the Student Career Term record for all forward terms in which Reset Cumulative Stats is not enabled.

  5. Activates the Tuition Calculation and the FA Statistics Calculation Required flags on the Student Career Term record for the enrollment term.

  6. Triggers SAIP events, if enabled.

Note: After running the Update FA Progress Units process, you should rebuild FA Term records to incorporate the cascading changes made to FA Progress Units.
