MPN Information

Student Financial Planning's integration with the Student Aid Internet Gateway (SAIG) Mailbox allows the student's MPN Information to be automatically imported and displayed on the user interface.

What Student Financial Planning Does Automatically

Student Financial Planning automatically does the following things:

Validates/Imports MPN

When COD generates CRPN message class for a completed MPN and transmits it through the SAIG Mailbox, Student Financial Planning recognizes, accepts and imports the files and displays them in the user interface. The system is designed to automatically receive the files at configured intervals.

Sends a Student Notification

Student Financial Planning automatically sends a student notification when an MPN is required based on Trigger configuration.

Closes Student Notification

Student Financial Planning automatically closes the open Student Notification after an MPN is received or if an MPN is determined to no longer be required.

The Notification framework evaluates the clearing conditions every time the configured Required Trigger event is completed, for example, repackaging.

Creates Student History Entry

Student Financial Planning creates a Student History Entry when an MPN is required, no longer required and when an MPN response is received.

Configurable Attributes
