Understanding How the Baseline Configuration Works
FAFSA Completion Dates
The system begins to accept ISIRs in SFA from CPS as of the FAFSA_Start_Date and stops accepting ISIRs as of the FAFSA_End_Date.
ISIR Correction Dates
The system submits ISIR corrections to CPS as of the ISIR_Correction_Start_Date and stops submitting ISIR Corrections to CPS as of the ISIR_Correction_End_Date.
