DATA ENTRY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ENTERING INTO THE FADS ONLINE WEB SYSTEM
Welcome to the FADS Web System, to be used if your institution is unable to create an independent file to SFTP to the Coordinating Board. You create your FADS report by entering your student’s records online using the Coordinating Board web system. This is not something that can be used to download information into from another program. Go To www.thecb.state.tx.us, click on Data and Statistics, click on Financial Aid Database System (FADS) or go to https://www1.thecb.state.tx.us/FAD/ The first screen you will see (shown below), will ask you to enter in your institution’s six-digit FICE code and password. The password is the same password you have used to process your FADS report. If you don’t have a password, you can e-mail Tanya Sifuentes at [email protected].
You have three options (shown below is the first screen): 1. If it is the first time you are entering into the system, you will need to click on the “Add New Student” button;
2. If you have already entered students into the system, and you need to edit a student’s information, click on the student’s ssn at the bottom of the screen;
3. If you have finished entering students into the system, click on the “Report” button and your records will be submitted to the CB (this will be covered later in the manual).
1. The screen below is what the beginning of a blank form looks like.
If you hover over the name of the field, you will see help information.
Once you have finished entering information for one student, click on the Add Student button at the bottom of the screen. Click on Add New Student at the bottom of the main page to continue entering information for another student.
2. At the bottom of the main page all of the student’s that have already been entered will be shown, see below. Click on a student’s ssn if you need to edit that student’s record or if you need to delete that student’s record from the system.
When you click on the student’s ssn to edit or delete their record, you will see the data entry screen with their information populated, shown below.
3. Once you have finished entering all of your student records and you are ready to submit your report for editing by our system, enter in the number of aid applicants at the bottom of the main page. Then click on the “REPORT” button.
Your records will be submitted to the CB and you will receive a file receipt confirmation, just as if you had submitted your report by FTP. Once the report has been processed, you will receive an error report. If you have any questions or problems, you can contact us at [email protected].
