Please add the financial aid fields to the data slicer. There are many instances where we need to pull in "Student" info to a report that includes financial aid data. Especially for IPEDS and other surveys. This will increase the integrity of the information we are reporting.
Currently the IPEDS report can not be exported from Populi to import into IPEDS. The developers are aware of the issue, but we have a survey due in a few weeks which requires Student and financial aid data combined.
I support this wholeheartedly. We really need more financial aid data elements added to the data slicer. For instance I want to be able to run reports that include the Master Promissory Notes, their status and expiration date, but these elements are not in the data slicer. Same with the loan counseling. These are just a few examples.
It seems like this request may have been partially delivered since 2018 (financial fields), but not fully delivered (the original request was rather general).
Here's my analysis of what might be useful, especially now that the Data Slicer reports can be requested via the API, and thus can be used to drive an integration with a third-party system. This isn't an immediate need for us, however, although I believe I may work on a data integration related to this later in the year.

Another ticket that alludes to these fields is: https://support.populiweb.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360026353894-Please-add-Enrollment-fields-and-Admissions-fields-in-the-Data-Slicer
I am a new Populi user and agree more data field access for use in data slicer would be super helpful, particularly ISIR fields, admission info.
