Complete Matches (Match Records)

You are not required to complete matches. You may want to use the Match Records option strictly for reporting purposes.

The Complete Matches button performs the following functionality:

·       Inserts missing rows in the PF_APPLICANT_MASTER table for PowerFAIDS applicants with an ALTERNATE_ID value. These are PowerFAIDS records where the ALTERNATE_ID has already been populated manually or by other J1 Financial Aid functions

·       Inserts missing PF_POE_DEF rows for PF applicants with POE assignments. The POE Definition window opens and displays data from PowerFAIDS that you must modify and save or save as shown or cancel.

·       Inserts missing rows in the PF_APPLICANT_MASTER table for all records with a Good SSN Match status

·       Inserts rows in PF_STDNT_MSTR for the records with a status of Good SSN Match. If corresponding rows in PF_STDNT_MSTR already exist, it updates PD_STDNT_MSTR.POE_ID with PowerFAIDS STU_AY_POE.POE_ID.

·       Creates corresponding records in the EXTERNAL_DATA table in PowerFAIDS. The record contains SSN, AWARD_YEAR_TOKEN, and EX_ID_NUM for the ALTERNATE_ID. It will also include any additional data elements flagged for transfer in the Configure Optional Student Data Elements for Transfer task.

·       Displays the Match Records - Create Student Update Parameters window, which prompts you for needed values. When you enter these values and click OK, the process completes.
