    Combination Layouts

    Introduction

    This section contains technical information that enables schools to use acombination of the U.S. Department of Educations EDExpress forWindows software and their institutions administrative software to

    process Federal Pell Grant program data. It provides the essential recordlayouts that are pertinent for use with combination systems set-up.

    Importing Student DataYou can import student data that is captured from your campus systeminto EDExpress or you can export records from the EDExpress databaseinto a file that can then be imported into your campus system. Forexample, information from your institutions financial aid packagingsystem can be imported into EDExpress to originate Pell records; likewise,Pell disbursement acknowledgements that provide institutions with an

    accurate status of accepted disbursements can be exported fromEDExpress. This information can be used by your business office toreconcile the institutions disbursement activity with the Departmentsdisbursement data.

    Using EDExpress with Internal or Vendor SoftwareUsers can choose to use a portion of the functions provided by EDExpressin conjunction with their own internal system or vendor software. A brief overview of the External Add process is described here. More details areavailable within the online Help system in the EDExpress software. Theprocess allows you to quickly update both Origination Records and addDisbursement Records in EDExpress.

    Using Record Layouts

    There are two record layouts used to assist combination schools with thePell Payment process: The Origination Add-External, for originationrecords, has a message class of PGEO01OP and a record length of 300characters; the Disbursement AddExternal, for disbursement records, hasa message class of PGED01OP and a record length of 108 characters.Schools can import origination and disbursement data from their externalsystem using the record layout as shown within this technical reference.

    Add files are created and imported without header or trailer recordsattached. The EDExpress software requires an ASCII import format withthe end of each record marked with carriage return and line feed characters(ASCII 10 and 13). There is no end of file marker (EOF), only the finalcarriage return/line feed marker after the last record.

    Note: If the file is incorrectly formatted without the carriage return/linefeed, the import fails and the following error message displays: Invalidrecord length. Check import file format.

    Origination IDThe key for both message file types is the Origination ID with thefollowing elements:

    1 3 5

    999999999 XX 2001 999999 00

    2 4

    1. Positions 1-9 characters are the SSN with a valid range of 001010001-999999999.

    2. Positions 10-11 are the Name Code.

    3. Positions 12-15 are the Year Indicator with a valid range of 2001.

    4. Positions 16-21 are the Valid Attending Campus Pell ID.

    5. Positions 22-23 are the Origination Sequence Numbers which must be00.

    EditsInterfacing the two systems will also allow the school to take advantage of edits included in EDExpress Save process. The data will pass throughfield by field edits to check for valid content and proceed through a

    second tier of End-of-Entry edits, to check for integrity of content. Anerror message will display for any field that fails these edits. The validfield content is detailed in the Valid Values column in the record layouttable. The End-of-Entry Edits are described in a separate table at the endof this section.

    All updates are performed during the save process. At the end of theexternal add process for both origination and disbursement, a batchstatistics dialog box will display. The dialog will contain the total numberof records added, updated and skipped in the file. Details on records witherrors will also print on the edit report.
