SFN journals are generated by Student Financials transactions, which include financial aid, GSAtuition waivers, tuition and fees, and other items. These transactions are posted to students' accounts using item types. Item types adjust the balance on students' accounts and, in most cases, are linked to a Chartfield combination. When SFN processing runs (typically every Monday night and the last night of every month), the item types that are linked to Chartfields create SFN journal lines. The individual transactions for each unique Chartfield combination are summarized into one line on the SFN journal. For information about the individual transactions that make up an SFN line:
