Streamlining Financial Aid Authorization Overrides in PeopleSoft Campus Solutions: A Custom Approach at UCF

Presented by:
Margaret Gotter, University of Central Florida

Abstract:

Managing disbursement rules in the Financial Aid module of PeopleSoft Campus Solutions can be complex, especially when exceptions must be made for individual student awards. At the University of Central Florida (UCF), we identified a critical need to streamline the override process for awards that meet exception criteria but fail standard authorization rules. These overrides are subject to federal and/or state audits, requiring a secure, transparent, and efficient tracking mechanism. This session will showcase UCF’s custom-built Authorization Override module within Campus Solutions, which replaced a previously external authorization override tracking system. The solution leverages the delivered file structure of  STDNT_AWRD_DISB (Student Award Disbursements) and introduces a user-friendly interface and robust tracking features that have significantly improved operational efficiency and audit compliance. This presentation will benefit institutions seeking to improve their Financial Aid operations within Campus Solutions.
