1.4.1 Updating the ECOUTMAP.SQC File

EDI Manager requires some modifications for Financial Aid business processing.

Note:

This task is only necessary when using the CommonLine™ 4 features. This is not necessary to implement if your institution uses Direct Lending or Common Record CommonLine processing.

In the following procedure, you use PeopleTools EDI Manager to run a process that updates the base ECOUTMAP.SQC file with the Financial Aid EDI Outbound map definitions. Make sure that the new file replaces the original file of the same name.

To update the ECOUTMAP.SQC file with Financial Aid EDI Outbound map definitions:

  1. Select PeopleTools, EDI Manager on your target database.

  2. Select Monitor EDI Processing, Prepare Outbound Driver.

  3. Enter a Run Control ID of FA800. (Add it if you don’t have it).

  4. Enter the directory path for ECOUTMAP.SQC file, typically <PS_HOME>\SQR.

  5. Select the Transaction IDs that your institution uses by checking the appropriate “Select” box.

    Important:

    Additional Transaction IDs may appear. It is important that only the files processed by your Financial Aid office are selected. Consult with your Financial Aid Office staff for the required EDI transactions.

    Financial Aid EDI Outbound Map Definitions are:

    Transaction ID Map ID Description of Files Created

    A004P

    CL_ORIG_V4

    CommonLine™ 4 Application Send

    C004P

    CL_CHNG_V4

    CommonLine™ 4 Change Send

  6. Click Save.

  7. Click Run.

  8. Select your server name, and click OK.

  9. Monitor the execution of the SQR using the Process Monitor.
