Enable the Configuration in the UI

You do not have to complete any setup in the user interface to enable this configuration.

Considerations for Configuration

  • If you are using a third party SIS, you need to map your institutions Academic and Admissions statuses to the available Academic and Admissions statuses in SFP. If you are using Oracle, PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, this mapping is not required.
  • You can configure additional criteria that should be evaluated when determining if a fund meets CHBD eligibility.
  • You can configure the system to use the COD Request Date or the COD Acceptance Date to determine if loan funds should be included in the CHBD field.

Configuration in the User Interface

The configuration is visible in the Student Financial Planning User Interface if you navigate to the following screens:

  1. Student Search > Student > Financial Information > R2T4 Information
  2. CHBD details are visible in Steps 1 and 3 of the R2T4 calculation
