This job is likely to be run concurrently with Payments Inconsistency Extract Job INTJ0116.

INTJ0117 can only run in batch mode, through the Job Control & Scheduling subsystem. It can be run as a standalone job.

Timing

The report would normally be run after running the interface master job, INTJ0021, which creates invoices in Callista, transfers them to the external financial system and applies or re-applies payments to new or adjusted invoices.

For initial checking of system integrity, the report could be run after each run of INTJ0021. As long as errors are not encountered, institutions may then decide to schedule the report to run less frequently.

It would normally be run before the end of financial year processing.

Reconciliation of Callista Debt with COFI Debt

This job lists all student liabilities where –

  • Assessed debt totals held in core Callista differ from invoices in the interface tables, for the same fee liability
  • A student's fee liability may be met, in whole or in part, by a sponsor. If the debt is split between student and sponsor, invoices are created for both. This section reports on amounts against both student and sponsor
  • The Callista values reflect the total proportion of a fee assessment (excluding tax), and where applicable, the proportion of tax, for which a student or sponsor is liable. These amounts are held in the Callista core table PERSON_PAYMENT_SCHEDULE. The COFI values reflect the totals of invoice amounts for which student and sponsor customers respectively are liable, to meet the fee and tax. These invoices reflect entries in the interface view, I_INVOICE_TRANS

The Maintain Person Payment Schedule form, FINF3800, displays the records which are the source of the total amounts shown under 'Callista Student Amount' and 'Callista Sponsor Amount' in this report.

Students with Invoices and No Fee Assessment Debt

This section lists all student liabilities where:

  • Invoice records exist in the Callista interface view, I_INVOICE_TRANS_V, but not as assessments of a fee liability in the Callista core table, PERSON_PAYMENT_SCHEDULE

Rules/Notes:

Students are grouped by fee period (Fee Assessment Calendar), with the most recent period first. Within fee period, they are sorted in ascending order of Person ID.

The output from INTJ0117 is presented in plain format and stored in the s_extract and s_extract_record table. The output can be investigated using INTF0117.

The s_extract record holds the following data:

  • S_EXTRACT_TYPE
