Tip: One of the benefits of running the process in simulation first is you can review any records that fail to pass the eligibility checks or disbursement rules and make updates prior to running the process in real mode.
- Set Run in Simulation Mode to Yes.
- Select Simulate.
-
As part of this process, each award and disbursement are evaluated against eligibility checks and disbursement rules to determine if it would disburse should the process be run in real mode. A separate message is displayed once the process has finished, and the screen becomes clear showing the results report. The results report is also available to review from the main page (see COD Grant & Loan Export Results Reports for information on reviewing the results). No file is generated from simulation mode.

Select Cancel to exit the process, select Previous to move back and update parameters, or continue to the next step to run the process in real mode.
