Blanking .billed in Enrdata

REG



 

In unusual circumstances, a student may not be billed properly and will need to be rebilled.  When SBR user requests to have the .billed flag blanked for rebilling purposes, follow the instructions below.

In the example shown, one course record will be blanked so that it can be re-billed.  During this process, no other user may be accessing Enrdata file.
