Publication Date: February 15, 2007 Author: G. Kay Jacks, General Manager, Application, Operations and Delivery Services, Federal Student Aid Summary: Upcoming Distribution of DPA and FAA Rosters Posted on 02-15-2007 Federal Student Aid and CPS/SAIG Technical Support will be sending two reports through the Student Aid Internet Gateway (SAIG) which are designed to assist you in managing your TG numbers and your staff’s access to Federal Student Aid secure data systems. The first report is a Destination Point Administrator (DPA) Roster and the second report is a Financial Aid Administrator (FAA) Roster. We are sending these reports to inform organizations about which of their employees currently possess TG numbers or are currently enrolled for FAA Access. The DPA Roster will be sent under the message class of DPARSTRS and the FAA Roster will be sent under the message class of FAARSTRS. If you find destination points on either roster that need to be deleted, or FAAs whose access needs to be removed, you can make the changes on the SAIG Enrollment site (http://FSAwebenroll.ed.gov). Procedures for deleting each type of access are provided at the end of this message. DPA Roster During the week of February 19, 2007, Federal Student Aid will place a DPA Roster in all “Primary” TG number mailboxes. The Primary TG Number is defined as the first TG number that was created for an organization, not necessarily the one that the organization uses to send and receive files. To retrieve your Primary TG Number, log in to the “Review Your Organization’s Mailboxes” feature on the SAIG Enrollment site (http://FSAwebenroll.ed.gov). After the DPA Roster is placed in your Primary TG Number mailbox, you will need to download the file with your EDconnect software by either performing a “receive all data” request or by selecting to receive the DPARSTRS message class. After you have downloaded the file, the DPA Roster will appear in your EDconnect Activity Log under the message class of DPARSTRS. You can print the file directly from your Activity Log or by using a text editor such as Microsoft Word. To print the file from the Activity Log, double-click on the file name in the File Name field. EDconnect will display the file in a text format so that you can easily print it. The printed DPA Roster will contain the following information:
FAA Roster During the week of March 19, 2007, Federal Student Aid will place an FAA Roster in all mailboxes that send and receive files for the Central Processing System (CPS) that currently have FAA Access users. To find out which of your TG numbers transmits these files, log in to the “Review Your Organization’s Mailboxes” feature on the SAIG Enrollment site (http://FSAwebenroll.ed.gov). After the FAA Roster is placed in your mailbox(es), download the file with your EDconnect software by either performing a “receive all data” request or by selecting to receive the FAARSTRS message class. The FAA Roster will appear in your EDconnect Activity Log under the message class of FAARSTRS. To print the file directly from the Activity Log, double-click the file name in the File Name field and EDconnect will display the file in a text format so that you can easily print it. You can also print the file by opening it in a text editor such as Microsoft Word. The printed FAA Roster will display the following information:
