Within FIS, a warning or error message is expected to appear if a child's date of birth is out of the range of being eligible for funding.
β
If you have a record that is out of the range, but you're not getting a warning or error, the cause is commonly due to the setup of the funding years and terms.
β
Funding settings
Click System Manager.
Click Options.
Expand FIS.
Click Funding.
Under Check Eligible Date of Birth, check that either Warning or Error is selected.
β
Funding Year/Term
