Processing Codes
Introduction
This section provides charts and tables that include an explanation of the different reject codes
and how to respond to each. Other tables provide information that further explains other
processing codes associated with the Central Processing System (CPS) Electronic Data
Exchange (EDE) process.
April 2003 (2003-2004) EDE Technical Reference Processing Codes

4-1
Summary of Tables
In this section, you will find several tables to assist you when reviewing files.
2003-2004 ISIR Cross-Reference

This table is a cross reference of the 2002-2003 Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR)
field number, start position, and end position with the 2003-2004 ISIR field number, start
position, and end position. It also lists valid field content for the field that has changed from the
last award year.
Table of Reject Codes and How to Respond to Each

This table is used to determine the meaning of each reject code possible on a Student Aid Report
(SAR) or ISIR. The table also outlines how to correct each reject and references comment code
numbers associated with the rejects.
Batch Level Error Messages

This table associates reject codes at the batch level and includes the text for that reject code, a
description of the error and a resolution. These error messages indicate that the batch was not
processed, the structure of the file was not valid, and the Central Processing System (CPS) was
not able to process the file. You will need to reformat the file appropriately and again send it to
the CPS for processing. No Institutional Student Information Records (ISIRs) will be generated
when there is a Batch Level error.
Record Level Error Messages

This table reports the record level reject codes. The actual text for each reject code, a description
of the error and a resolution for each error is listed. These error messages indicate that the
individual student record was not processed. Any student record in the batch, which does not
receive a Record Level Error message, results in a processed ISIR for that student. (Those ISIRs
will be sent back later in another file.) You will need to fix any student record with a Record
Level Error message and send it to the CPS again for processing so an ISIR will be generated.

4-2
Assumption Overrides
This table associates the override codes with the assumption being made. It also explains what
will happen if you use this code and an example of when you would use this code.
Field Name and Position Cross-References

This table is used to determine which fields were verified or corrected in the previous transaction
or which fields are highlighted on the ISIR. It also defines the field positions for the SAR field,
the FAFSA field name, and the question number on the FAFSA.
NSLDS Loan Program Codes

These codes are used to determine the loan program code on up to six loans in the NSLDS
portion of the ISIR Record Description/Data Dictionary found in the Record Layouts section of
this technical reference.
NSLDS Loan Current Status Codes

These codes are used to determine the current status on up to six loans in the NSLDS portion of
the ISIR Record Description/Data Dictionary found in the Record Layouts section of this
technical reference.
State/Country/Jurisdiction Codes
This table is used to determine the valid state abbreviations used for the following fields found
throughout the Record Layouts section of this technical reference:
• Student’s Permanent State
• Student’s Driver’s License State Code
• Student's State of Legal Residence
• Parents' State of Legal Residence

4-3
Correction Data Entry Specifications
This table is used in conjunction with the Correction Export Record Layout found in section 3,
Record Layouts. This table defines the SAR field number and field length. It defines what data
is valid to send for each SAR field on a correction record. The table also indicates if the SAR
field is a signed value, the justification of the SAR field, and if the field can be corrected to
blank.
Message Classes
This table lists the message classes associated with Application Processing.
ISIR Comment Codes

This section references where the Comment Codes can be located.
