Purpose

To match a Fee Sponsorship Status defined by the institution to a System Fee Sponsorship Status

SubSystem

Finance

A sponsor undertakes to make payment of all or part of a Student's Fee Liabilities for a particular course. Fee Sponsorship Statuses reflect the state of activity of a particular sponsorship of a student undertaken by an individual or organisation.

Potentially, the status of a sponsorship can be either PLANNED, ACTIVE, EXPIRED or CANCELLED by the institution, or INFRINGED by the student. These statuses are recorded against either a Student Course Attempt (or specified Fee Period in a Course Attempt) or a particular Fee Liability in that attempt, using the Direct Assignment of Sponsorships form (FINF4300). The job FINJ4430 can be run to automatically change a Sponsorship Status to EXPIRED once the End Date for the sponsorship is reached.

This form is used to match an institution defined Sponsorship Status to a System Sponsorship Status. System Statuses provide functionality within Callista.

The Fee Sponsorship Status block contains:

• Fee Sponsorship Status
• Description
• System Fee Sponsorship Status
• Closed check box

Rule/Notes:

Use this form to assign Sponsorship Status names chosen by the institution to System Sponsorship Statuses. One or more institution defined statuses can be mapped to each System Status.

Statuses no longer required can be closed. Once recorded against a sponsorship record, a status cannot be deleted.

Rules/Notes:

System sponsorship statuses are set to ACTIVE as the default.

The system fee sponsorship statuses are ACTIVE, EXPIRED, INFRINGED, CANCELLED and PLANNED.

Unless it is important to retain a term already in use in the institution, it is recommended that institution defined status names reflect system status names.
