All file changes were delivered in the previous release 2605-01.
Functional change notes:
FINANCIER has been enhanced to evaluate the newly delivered field, WF-IS-ISIR-VERSION-FLAG (previously designated as FILLER). When this flag indicates that the ISIR is in the new format (WF-IS-ISIR-VERSION-FLAG=1), the ADD Import process will set a corresponding indicator within the WF-ADD-FILE record. This enhancement ensures that the ISIR is routed through the updated data-loading routines within the ADD Load process.
During execution, the ADD Load process will invoke newly delivered routines specifically designed to process the revised ISIR layout for records identified as the new format. Previously delivered ISIRs, which do not have the WF-IS-ISIR-VERSION-FLAG field set, will continue to be processed through the version of the Load process originally delivered in the 2026–2027 Regulatory release.
One new field, NSLDS Loan Limit Exception Flag - WF-NS-LIMIT-EXCP, will be displayed on the NSLDS screen in FINANCIER.
The Postscreening Reason Code fields - WF-IS-C-NSLDS-PS1, WF-IS-C-NSLDS-PS2, WF-IS-C-NSLDS-PS3 - had values 28-39 added.
