Module | Category | Case | Description | Documentation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Academic | Enhancement | DEV-2078 | SAP Update: New Filter options for Cumulative and Single Semester “earned/completion percentages” have been added. New data fields have also been added.

Academic | Enhancements | DEV-1803 | When navigating to the GPA History Listing page the GPA Processor will now run in the background for that specific student automatically, so users do not have to wait for the GPA Processor to run fully for all students when needing to make an individual adjustment to a student’s grade. | |

This is for graduate and doctorate programs that enroll in externships or ongoing research/thesis courses that cover multiple terms, and they need to be marked as full time even though the enrolled course credit hours for the term do not match the full-time threshold. | |

Before it was hard coded to the exact description of the SBUSCD STPARM; but it is now coded to the Parameter values: A (for Non-Resident/Alien), R (Resident), Y (US Citizen).

The individual student Counseling/MPN page still allows for manually creating those records. | |
Financial Aid | Enhancement | DEV-2102 | New FTI data fields from the ISIR have been added to the F/A Packaging data grid. Since the student’s ability to self-report income, exemptions, and dependents is optional on the FAFSA; we have now added the IRS’s FTI fields since many of these fields are now left blank by the student. The fields added: Student FTI AGI Student FTI Exemptions Student FTI Dependents Parent FTI AGI Parent FTI Exemptions Parent FTI Dependents | |
Financial Aid | Change | DEV-2141 | Alphabetized the dropdown selections for Custom Named Term and Cost of Attendance Rules on the F/A Packaging page | |

This process will now calculate each term individually if the student is enrolled in the terms listed in the rule. This is mainly an issue for institutions with a summer header term that is part time, while the student is also enrolled full time for the fall term. | |

| |

The Ninety Ten category field must be set to “SP - Federal Split” selection in order for the system to split the transaction amount accordingly. | |
