Reconciling / Understanding ILR payments

Created

None

Hi we have recently started teach apprenticeship courses (we are are a training provider).  I can reconcile the payment report each month, but when the actual payment comes through it is different and I am unable to understand why.  I cannot find a report which shows the breakdown and how the figure is arrived at.  I am guessing it is to do with the formula for the dates ESFA are using.  Does anyone have any words of wisdom?  Many thanks

Hi Clare Thrush,

Actual payments include adjustments to previous payments.

Often times the Actual payments will vary due to changes in the ILR from the previous month. E.g. reporting a learner with a withdrawal date in months prior to the submission date or reporting a learner with a start date prior to the current return date etc...

Overall total actual payments so far in the year 'should' reconcile to the latest Submit learner data funding summary report.
