RE: "S" packaging status not included on Fund Lists
DATE: September 25, 1996

(307) In the Packaging module of EDExpress, the "Packaged Students by Fund Code"
list does not include those students with a Fund Decision "S" (Suspend). Therefore, the
list may not reflect the total amount of awarded funds calculated by the software.
However, the funds are deducted from the fund balances in the software.

The software is working as specified which is based on input from a FOCUS group of
financial aid administrators. At the next Packaging software focus group meeting, the
issue will be reviewed to determine if this should be changed to include the students
with a Fund Decision "S".

In addition, in some cases, students will have a Fund Decision which is blank, rather
than "A," "S," or "D." These students do not appear on lists and are not accounted for
in fund balances. To locate these students, create a query to find Packaging Results not
equal to () A and Packaging Results not equal to () S and Packaging Results not
equal to () D and Packaging Status equal to (=) P. Go to File | Print | Labels - File
Folders, choose Selection Criteria, and choose as a User-Defined Criteria the above
query. The students who appear on this printout will need to be reviewed.

If you have questions, please call CPS Customer Service at 1-800-330-5947 and choose
option 8, then option 2 for Packaging assistance.
