Customer needs a way to show anitipcated annual renewal amount to recipients without awarding full amount up front.

Right now, University of Alabama is awarding renewals twice annually - one iteration in the Fall and one in the Spring, but they need a better way to show the FULL annual anticipated amount in Banner in context of the overall financial aid package. Right now, since they can only export half the amount in the Fall, for example, when they send this through the API to Banner, Banner will reveal less in the overall aid package to the student than he/she can hopefully expect. This is a problem in their experience because students need a way to more accurately anticipate and plan for awards.

They want to keep this in two iterations for compliance reasons. They DON'T want to initially award the full amount in the Fall, for example, and have to remember to go back into the system and award the other half as well as adjust the Fall award afterwards.

They would ideally like to put in an expected annual award amount for the student and have an actual payout or disbursement amount in addition. The expected annual award amount and the actual would be available in the API ideally.
