Adjustment Type: An "R" will result in a refund to a previous disbursement or a decrease to an upcoming disbursement, by the amount of the adjustment. For example, the $64 adjustment with Adjustment Type = R, when applied to a $100 certification, will result in a net disbursement of $36 for the term. An "I" will result in an increase by the amount of the adjustment. For example, the $64 adjustment with Adjustment Type = I, when applied to a $100 certification, will result in a net disbursement of $164 for the term.
