Why Automate PLUS Loans?

• Saves time – processing them individually is a multi-step process

• Accuracy• We can concentrate on students whose credit

status is not ‘A’ – approved, or who are enrolled less than half time.

• We process about 300 PLUS loans per year


On REAUCOD there are students who applied for PLUS loans but haven’t been processed yet. REAUCOD is a new form for 1516. (This is from the RPTUAPP table)


Steps to automation

1. Find students who are ready to process2. Calculate and post PLUS loan fee budget

components 3. Calculate and post PLUS awards4. Create PLUS loan originations


Steps to automation1. Find a popsel of students with PLUS loans to

process GLBDATA, GLRSLCT, GRLVRBL, GLIVRBL

2. Use batch posting to calculate and post the loan fees as a budget component for the popsel. RTVABRC, RBRABRC, RORPOST

3. Use batch posting to automatically calculate and process the PLUS loans for the popsel. RTVALGR, RPRALGR, RORPOST(etc)

4. Create PLUS Loan Originations


The popsel

Find a popsel of students with PLUS loans to process

o GLBDATA – Name the popsel o GLRSLCT – Rules for the popselo GLIVRBL – Name the variableo GRLVRBL – Rules for the variable


GLBDATA select the popsel of students with PLUS loan apps


• On the REAUCOD form / RPTUAPP table• Match all the aid years• Type (of loan) = P (PLUS)• Credit status = A (Accepted)• There is a Fed loan (FDUL, FDSL) of more that $0.00.• At least 6 credits (If they are only half time, their

budget will be half so their loan will be half.)• They don’t already have a PLUS loan for the year. • The start date of the loan is within the dates for the aid

year.

Who to select


GLRSLCT -Select the Students with Plus loans


Mistake!

• You can only have 1 GLRVRBL variable sub-select list in GLRSLECT


GLRSLCT RulesRPTUAPP_AIDY_CODE = &aidy ANDRPRAWRD_AIDY_CODE = &aidy ANDROBINST_AIDY_CODE = &aidy ANDRPTUAPP_TYPE = 'P' ANDRPTUAPP_CREDIT_STATUS = 'A' ANDRPRAWRD_FUND_CODE IN ('FDUL','FDSL') ANDRPRAWRD_OFFER_AMT > 0 ANDRPTUAPP_REQ_AWARD_START_DATE >= ROBINST_AIDY_START_DATE ANDRPTUAPP_REQ_AWARD_START_DATE <= ROBINST_AIDY_END_DATE ANDRPTUAPP_PIDM NOT IN (*SUB *PLUS_EXISTS_FOR_AID_YEAR

We have a view that contains # of credit hours per termRZVPBGP_AIDY_CODE = &aidy ANDRZVPBGP_BILLING_HRS >= 6 AND

If not:Add SFRSTCR to the from statementSFRSTCR_TERM_CODE = &term ANDSFRSTCR_RSTS_CODE in ('RE','RW') ANDSFRSTCR_CREDIT_HR >= 6 AND


Check: Do they have a PLUS loan for the year?Create a variable (which is a list of pidms) on GLIVRBL and GLRVRBL


Create the variable on GLRVRBLlike a popsel – except you must match everything


Budget Component

Use batch posting to calculate and post the loan fees as a budget component for the popsel.

o RTVABRC – name the ruleo RBRABRC – define the ruleo RORPOST – set parameters for the batch post

More on batch posting 2:40 in the Congressional Suite


My biggest mistakeYou must post a budget item for the PLUS loan fee first.(Even if you run budgeting on everyone, every night.)


Budget Component• The loan fee will be different for different

students (because it is based on a percentage of the loan), so a fixed amount will not work

• Make a budget component rule to calculate the loan fees for each student

• Period budgets – Make 2 fees, 1 for spring and 1 for fall

• Year budgets – Make 1 fee for the year

Tips on the rule – loan amountSELECT Case

Divide loan amount by 2 if you are using period budgeting

Tip – check the SSNs RPTUAPP_SSN = SPBPERS_SSN


Note: with all the rounding the rule does, the budget amounts can very by a dollar.

Awarding the PLUS LoanUse batch posting to automatically calculate and process the PLUS loans for the popsel. We need a rule to calculate the amount of the loan.

o RTVALGR – Name the ruleo RPRALGR – Define the ruleo RORPOST – Batch post the PLUS loans


RTVALGO – Create a rule for the PLUS loan

The rule - AmountSELECT Case WHEN RPTUAPP_APP_LOAN_AMT > (BUDGET - AWARDS) THEN ROUND((BUDGET - AWARDS) ,0)Loan amount more than need –> award need WHEN RPTUAPP_APP_LOAN_AMT IS NOT NULL THEN RPTUAPP_APP_LOAN_AMT Loan amount <= need –> award that amount ELSE ROUND((BUDGET - AWARDS) ,0)No loan amount –> award need END as "loan amt"


The rule - subselects FROM RPTUAPP, SPBPERS,
