The Financial Operations Desk

From the first question to the audit file.

Eli is an operations layer on top of your SIS. It holds the intake, the reading, the calculation, the review, and the record of who decided what.

Dana Cole, Meridian State University, financial aid office.

Synthetic student. Every figure is the calculation engine's output.

The constraint

Forty-five days from the date of determination to the money being back.

On every withdrawal your office has not found yet. A queue does not tell you which case runs out first.

34 CFR 668.22(j)(1)

Check a calculation against your own

Four queues, one engine.

Every queue shares the same rules engine, audit log, and approval gate. A pilot starts wherever the pain is worst that term.

  1. The front door

    Questions answered from your published policy. The right form, then a guided intake built from that form.

    “My mom lost her job in June.”

    Special Conditions Appeal
    Dependency Override
  2. The casework

    Returns, Schedule of Reductions, appeals, professional judgment, verification, identity and fraud.

    Wages, year to date$25,460.20

    synthetic-final-paystub.pdf

    Confirmed projection$38,180.20
  3. The money

    Direct Loans from origination to booking. Monthly reconciliation with every variance named.

    Ledger$3,213.60
    COD$3,213.60
    Award$3,213.60

    Nothing unexplained

  4. The record

    FISAP, program accountability, and an audit file carrying the rule and the signer.

A system of action on top of your SIS. Not a replacement for it.

Your SIS stays the system of record for the student, the award, and the disbursement. Eli holds the work in between: the intake, the document reading, the calculation, the review, and the record of who decided what. A missing fact stops the case. A named person signs. Data moves by file in and file out.

File in · Named person signs · File out

Your systems stay the system of record. Your people keep the pen.
