Overview of Configuration References

This is supplemental reference information for understanding and implementing configuration of Oracle Student Financial Aid (SFA).

This Guide includes reference materials that supplement guidance in the Implementation and User Guides to configure SFA:

• Configuration Guides - These topics have details for every Configuration Workbook; one topic per Workbook. Each topic includes details for each field in the Workbook, if there's an equivalent Financial Aid System (FAS) user interface to do the configuration, required permissions, and other considerations and information for the Workbook.
• Baseline Configuration - These topics have details about some of the Award Year-specific configuration delivered by Oracle. They don't cover all delivered Baseline Configuration.

  There are topics that relate one-to-one with specific Configuration Workbooks:

  • Configured Baseline Documents topics are related to the Documents Guide.
  • Configured Baseline Document Metadata topics are related to the Doc Metadata Guide.
  • ISIR Discrepancy Rules topics are related to the ISIR Discrepancy Guide.

  There are also topics describing the logic for the Verification document request and Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR) code clearing logic which use multiple Configuration Workbooks.

• Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR) Field Names - These topics list Award Year-specific SFA database Column (Field) Names for equivalent ISIR Field Names. The SFA Column Names are used for Groovy scripts.
