SINF Extract Filter date
We used to have a date filter option (on the previous CALPADS extract page)
Extract Only Data Changes:
Include any changes from the Date: _____ until now.The challenge we are facing is that the SINF file continues to grow. We have gone from 9000 records in mid-September to now 13,500 records. The file will only continue to grow as we progress through the year.
The time to process files in CALPADS is correlated to their size (number of records). So, the file will take longer and longer to process as the school year progresses.
Most of that time will…10 votes -

Dual households (addresses and parents) should be on Demographics Page!
Hi Aeries!
Many students have dual households due to divorce, alternative living situations etc., and the demographics page doesn't allow for listing BOTH households (and both parents), nor both mailing addresses (nor separate home phone numbers). The program operates as if traditional marriage is the only option!
Aeries does not generate a comprehensive mailing list--meaning, it does not include both mailing addresses where applicable. I can do a separate query using the contacts, but it is a time consuming process and really it should be listed together, front and center, on the student demographic page. This information should query together.…7 votesConsidered for Feature Modernization ·

The "Households" concept that will be introduced with Aeries NextGen should handle this situation. Thank you for submitting the idea!

Withdrawal Form
Please move this to an easier to access place in Aeries. Clicking report and then withdrawal is not efficient. It should be an item under student data or even reports - like how you can push a button and just get that specific students attendance in reports, the withdraw student should work the same.

Default Online Enrollment Surveys to "NO" for Military Survey, Residency Survey, and Foster Survey
Allow a default answer of "No" for Military Survey, Residency Survey and Homeless survey so parents who do qualify would need to actively change the answer. Hopefully this will eliminate parents who click "Yes" erroneously.
5 votesDefaulting to "No" could also result in erroneous records. The current process of forcing the parents to select a "Yes" or a "No" is the best way to ensure the parent is providing the information.

Witnesses and Victims statements: allow upload of document or picture
After a discipline incident, statements are often taken from witnesses and victims. These statements are usually handwritten on paper. The Witnesses page includes an Account/Testimony field, which is potentially used by some schools.
At the spring 2023 AeriesCon, a customer asked for Witnesses to allow uploading of a document containing the witness statement. The document should be associated with the Incident ID.
Other options to consider: automatically associating the uploaded document with WIT, VIC or ADS depending on where it was uploaded. Allowing this document upload from WIT, VIC, or ADS, depending on the role of the involved student. If…

Send automatic email to Parents that Online Enrollment is Incomplete.
Email sent from Aeries to P/G email when an online enrollment has been set to Incomplete.
Currently staff are emailing or calling parents when their online enrollment is incomplete. We are talking hundreds of calls or emails at the moment. It would be great if Aeries would allow an automatic email generation for this. Thinking something like when a portal account has been created.
Just looking for a way to send out a generic email to slap them in the face to say 'do it right.....please'. ;)

Free and Reduced Survey Details
In a recent Free and Reduce data audit, our auditors strongly suggested that in addition to the Free and Reduced record generated by the income survey, that the actual dollar amounts/brackets that the parent entered wAould be displayed as well. They mentioned that it would also be handy to have a page somewhere in Aeries that shows the current income guidelines that are in use in the backend. This way, it's a bit more transparent about what's going on in the code.

SINF Contact for Restricted Contacts
Can there be a way to pull a Restricted Contact (CON.CD) into the SINF extract for Parent/Guardian Name/Ed Level? Some parents are considered restricted but they still have ed rights and should be included with the SINF extract even if they are coded as R-Restricted.

Classroom Attendance and Block Sections
The Classroom Attendance page allows for clerks or admins to update 10 days of attendance on the one page. The page is not looking at each individual section. When Save is clicked, it looks at the section for the date selected in the date dropdown and assumes all the days have the same section with the same Block value. If a previous attendance code is populated, it sometimes assumes it should also be the same block value and updates all previously entered codes to be the same block. Enhance to more accurately handle blocks.

Classroom Attendance - At the beginning of the school year, all columns of non-school days should be grayed out for all students
Please enhance Classroom Attendance so all non-school days at the beginning of the year show as grayed out for all students. This will keep staff from entering absence codes on the incorrect days. This is a visual issue, absence codes do not save.

Create a secondary option on the Discipline violation as to whether or not the violation resulted in an injury
Many districts are over reporting injuries as a result of a change made to the way that CALPADS discipline codes are interpreted. The 501 code, "Caused, Attempted, or Threatened Physical Injury," is automatically assumed to have resulted in an injury. There is not a way to say that the action simply attempted or threatened injury. We need a way to say whether or not this code actually resulted in an injury. If we had that option, on the CALPADS code translation table, we could decide if it was then reported as a 501 (injury) or 504 (no injury).
