Match Bursaries with Applicants {FBLO-5}


This option uses the information as defined in {FBLO-2} to calculate sort values for all the applicants processed in {FBLO-4}. When run in final, allocation records are created for all selected students. These records are created without awarding funds and can be queried in {FBLO-6}. Records will be displayed per bursary in decreasing sequence of the sort value that was calculated. If funds is allocated automatically via {FBLO-7}, it will also be allocated according to the sort value. Allocation records are created for every category defined on the bursary definition in {FBLO-1}
. Funds can also be allocated manually to the students on {FBLO-4} or {FBLO-6}.

  Is this a (T)rial or (F)inal Run A1 A Trial run will produce a list of all applicants showing both criteria that match and criteria that do not match for the student. The report indicates which students matched all criteria.  A Final run will record all students who matched the criteria  against the bursary and amounts can now be allocated to these students.  A Trial run for the specified bursary cannot be done once a final run has been done.  A final run can however be run again, provided the bursary completion date on the bursary definition {FBLO-1} has not been entered, and will allow the user to delete previous records where no allocations (awards) have been made.
