Determine options for utilizing new CALPAD SSSID Match Results Output file for easier SSID assignment The new CALPADS SSID Match Results Output file that should be available in CALPADS in August 2022.

Due to the new CALPADS Post Process Redevelopment, Data Validations are needed in Aeries before the file is submitted to CALPADS. A file can only post if it passes all input validations. If a file has 1 error, the entire file will reject. The file extract process will take care of the bulk of these file format validations, but cross-field and/or valid code combination errors may still occur. New validations need to be added to the default set for these types of errors.

When CALPADS launches their SSID Lookup API feature, please create a process where districts can have the option to search for potential transfer students and locate an SSID if it already exists in CALPADS.

Due to the changes CALPADS launched in their new environment, we must make immediate adjustments to the Enrollment Update Extracts

When processing SPRG reconciliation process, output into several files
Deletes
Exits
Updates

CALPADS SPRG - Remove the transaction code "R" from the SPRG files

CALPADS SINF is pulling parent contact names causing an Invalid Character error.

In order to assist schools in properly assigning teachers to courses and section in a way that is compatible with state credentialing requirements, a new report in Aeries must be created to display Course (and maybe Section) information alongside staff information (including SEID)

Due to the changes CALPADS launched in their new environment, we must make immediate adjustments to the End of Year Extracts

FOR EOY Process, must output different records into several extracts
Deletes
Exits
Updates

This process is needed for any EOY file that is NOT a full-replacement file.

Can we please have the extract pull from the LSI.GN field if the student has data populated in that field? It makes sense to extract from that field, particularly since if the LIS.LLN and LSI.LFN is populated that data gets extracted. We have a student (and surely more to come) that identify as a different gender. Populating the STU.GN with the students preferred gender is causing CALPADS fatal errors.

The Residence Survey Audit Tool is incomplete. As it currently stands, it adds a whole bunch of 191 records that are missing a State Required Field (Unaccompanied Youth Indicator), thus resulting in fatal errors when sending up the SPRG. For this tool to be really effective and time-saving, the Unaccompanied Youth indicator needs to be included. Maybe auto-populate it as a N and then we can go in and change the the Ys? Or include an option for the person completing the Audit to indicate a Y or N for Unaccompanied Youth.

Add Class ID field from MST to the derived Class ID for the CALPADS extracts CRSE/C

Update the auto-creation process for SPRG Code 185-TK program records to verify the grade level of the actual ENR records to determine the start date of the TK program record, if it changed after the beginning of the student's enrollment record that year. The SPRG TK record should start as of the first day of TK enrollment for the school year.

CALPADS STAS Extract - If a single database has multiple CDS Codes used for reporting - When a virtual school houses students tagged with a Reporting Home School, and CALPADS Extract School Options are set to a specific school, the STAS file may include other student attendance data from CDS Codes that were not selected in the extract.

Code Translations need the NO LONGER IN USE codes removed. Thank you.

Can you make this setting have the ability to be save if unchecked. There are many reasons why I don't want the system to auto close an enrollment due to SINR, SIRS and SOFF files that won't post if uploaded against a close enrollment. It's a pain to try and remember to uncheck it every time I go in to the extracts page..

CALPADS instituted 2 new reports under the Accountability/Monitoring Reports section to help monitor and validate the 4-year Cohort Grad Rate (ACGR) data.
15.1 - Cohort Outcome - Counts and Rates
15.2 - Cohort Outcome - Student Details
https://documentation.staging.calpads.org/Reports/Accountability/Accountability/

A report is needed in Aeries to help customers validate the information.

Automation: Please work on an automated system in which the PSTS survey questions could be administered/pushed out from within Aeries, a configuration that would identify the eligible students, send the questions/survey to the student's contacts/email, and in turn, would return those responses into the appropriate fields in Aeries "Add/Edit Post-Secondary Survey."

Aeries definitely have the extract part down! This would be a great enhancement~

TopsPro Enterprise/CASAS has a function built into their SIS that does all this for the end-user and it is really, really nice!

In Powerschool, you have the ability to specify which Programs (PGM) you want to extract when running the SPRG. This way, if you are fixing or adding a whole bunch of 192 records, you can pull a SPRG extract for only the 192 records. This will make the file smaller (nicer for CALPADS) and will allow us to be more concentrated in our data reconciliation. You shouldn't have to pull all programs all the time...It's unnecessary and can result in errors.
