Campus-Based COD Export
You can use the Campus-Based COD Export process to report student-level Federal Work-Study (FWS) earnings to the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system in the Campus-Based XML schema version 1.0a.
Under the FAFSA Simplification Act, the Department of Education uses school-reported data for the FWS Program to calculate the Student Aid Index (SAI) for aid recipients in the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) processing cycle beginning with award year 2024–25.
The Campus-Based COD Export process involves the following steps:
-
Specify the selection criteria for the records to be extracted from the database
-
Select the records to be included in the export file and export the selected records to the COD system
-
Review the history of batches that have been exported to COD
The data is transmitted to the COD using the response message class CRCBMYIN, which is non-program-specific and non-academic year-specific. The web response message class is CRWBxxIN.
For more details about the FWS reporting process at the student level, see Campus-Based Programs.
Financial Aid Processes File Management
Anthology Student version 22.0 and later enables customers to manage files in Azure File Storage using the Financial Aid Processes File Management form under Processes > System Administration. Without this form, users cannot upload or download files to Azure File Storage due to security restrictions. The file management functionality enables you to place files in the location where specific financial aid processes (e.g., Application Data Export/Import, Clearinghouse, NSLDS Reports, and others) expect to find the files. For more details, see Financial Aid Processes File Management.

Procedure to Export Campus-Based COD Files
Process Tab
The Selection Criteria section of the Process tab enables you to specify the data set for the Campus-Based COD Export file.
The Campus-Based COD Export process checks whether records selected for export are already gathered in a Student Review Batch.
-
If a batch is currently processing (not in Complete or Succeeded state) and you try to queue another batch with the same selection criteria, you will receive a notification indicating that you cannot queue the batch until the previous batch has finished processing.
-
If a batch has been successfully processed and you try to gather another batch with the same selection criteria, the process checks if the record is already in another open batch that has been gathered but not exported yet. The process then will not regather the same record.
-
Select a FWS Reporting Entity ID.
The drop-down list contains FWS Reporting Entity IDs for the campuses that you have access to. The default selected FWS Reporting Entity ID is the FWS Report Entity ID associated with the default campus for the logged-in user.

Select a Calendar Year or accept the session default.
For the first year of implementation, the default is 2022. As new calendar years are added, the most recent or newly added year will be set as the default.
