Understanding PBI Field Derivation

We recommend that you review the field specification, sample XML files, schemas and validation documents available on UKVI web site. The field specification provides information, such as, each field's format, description, whether a field value is required for SMS to issue the CAS number, whether the academic institution must validate a field value using the schema, and whether SMS performs additional validation on the field value when you upload the file.

You can capture the field values at three levels in Campus Solutions:

1. Configuration level.

2. Academic program or plan level.

3. CAS Details level.

For more information about the data capture levels, see Preparing for PBI Data Exchange
