Understanding Integration with Oracle Student Financial Planning Cloud Service

Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions (CS) customers can opt to integrate with the Oracle Student Financial Planning Cloud Service (SFP) as an alternative to using CS Financial Aid. SFP supports student financial aid programs in the United States including Borrower Based Academic Year (BBAY) financial aid, but can also be used globally. SFP does not presently support financial aid localizations for Great Britain or Canada.

The integration between CS and SFP is an exchange of data in the form of sending and receiving specialized messages between the two systems.

CS uses 3 outbound messages to send data to SFP:

  • Student Initiation Event – Initiates new students in SFP with biographic information from CS.

  • Student Academic and Financial Information (SAFI) Event – Sends Student Record (Academic Program, Enrolled Classes, Grades, etc.) and Student Financial (Charges, Student Resources) information to SFP.

  • Leaves of Absence and Breaks in Attendance Event – Sends Student Records Leave of Absence information to SFP.

CS accepts 2 inbound messages to receive data from SFP:

  • Disbursement Information Event – Provides SFP disbursements to CS by populating SF Group Data Entry for follow on Group Post.

  • Return to Lender Event – Provides information about disbursed payments that have been reduced (triggered from repackaging, R2T4, etc.). The transactions update CS SF Group Data Entry for follow-on Group Post.
