Disbursement Reject Reasons

The disbursement batch edits are a result of the business rules and the
information technology used in the system.

• RFMS processing edits can be found in the record layouts later on in


this technical reference.
• The results of these edits are provided in the comment codes on the
disbursement and special disbursement acknowledgement records.
• The editing process may result in rejection, corrections made to data,
or warning messages.

For example, RFMS rejects the student's disbursement record if the


institution reports an incorrect origination ID. If the annual award amount
is miscalculated, RFMS recalculates the amount and reports the
recalculated amount as the accepted value in the disbursement
acknowledgement record.
