Message Classes

Message Classes
The Message Class table describes the message classes that are to be used for sending and receiving
data to and from the COD System.

• Message classes that end in an IN are for documents exported from a school system to the COD
System

• Message classes that end in an OP are for documents imported to a school system from the COD
System

Common Record Message Classes

The Common Record Message Class tables describe the message classes that are used when sending
and receiving Common Record documents to and from the COD System.

Users are able to choose the message class in which they send and receive documents to and from the
COD System. Message class options include the following:

• Non-program specific and non-award year specific. Example: COMRECIN, COMRECOP

• Non-program specific and award year specific (2007-2008).

• Program specific (Pell, Direct Loan, ACG and National SMART) and non-award year specific.

Volume II – Common Record Technical Reference
 • Program specific (Pell, Direct Loan, ACG and National SMART) and award year specific (2007-
2008).

Schools do not need to use all of the message classes listed in the table below. Use of these message
classes will vary by school based on the schools’ business processes and system software. For school
initiated Common Records, schools can specify message class options when submitting documents.
The COD System will return document responses in the OP message class that corresponds to the IN
message class used to submit the document to the COD System. Schools will not be locked into a
specific message class upon initial document submission. Instead, schools will be able to change
message classes with each document submission to the COD System. For Receipts, the OP message
class will be determined by the presence of a year indicator in the IN message class that the school used
to submit the document to the COD System. For COD System Generated Responses, OP message
classes used by the COD System will differ for each type of system generated response and will contain
a year indicator.

The COD System will not validate the content of the Common Record document with the message class
type used for submission. For example, schools can submit Pell Grant data for the 2007-2008 award
year in the Direct Loan specific, non-award year specific message class (CRDLMYIN). The document
will be processed by the COD System and the response will be returned in the corresponding OP
message class (CRDLMYOP). If the document content does not correspond to the IN message class
used for submission, the COD System will not determine the appropriate content specific message class
in which to return the document response. Message class specificity is merely a mechanism that schools
can use to differentiate between documents they have submitted to the COD System.
