  1. CALPADS Extract Pull From LSI.GN

    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 definition for Student Gender in CALPADS CSF document is posted below. Therefore, until that guidance is changed by CALPADS, we will continue to pull from the Preferred Gender field (STU.GN): 

    SINF Field 2.19: Student Gender Code - A coded value representing the person's gender. Gender is a person's actual sex or perceived sex and includes a person's perceived identity, appearance or behavior, whether or not that identity, appearance, or behavior is different from that traditionally associated with a person's sex at birth.

    The code values reported are: M, F or X.

  2. Update the auto-creation process for SPRG Code 185-TK program records to verify the grade level

    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.

  3. Multi-colored Flags

    I recommend having multi-colored flags for different alerts, i.e. yellow flag = health; red flag = court orders; blue flag = SPED, orange flag = extreme behavior, etc.

    All flags should show up next to the students picture no matter what screen you are on.

    This is a CALPADS bug on their end. They DO intend to allow these special characters again, so we will not be changing our process at this time. If the 

    SINF update is needed, the customer either needs to make it manually in OM, or remove the offending characters from Aeries, but ALSO delete the CALPADS log entries for that change (the ones that contain the offending characters) so they won't be extracted also.

  5. Flag/Pop-up when Email in Contacts and Parent Portal don't match.

    Trying to work on Data Validations and Email Addresses. A secretary wanted to know why Aeries doesn't have a pop-up or something if the parent creates a Portal Account with a different email address than what is in Contacts. And, vice versa, if someone adds or changes an email address in Contacts, why doesn't it say Doesn't Match Portal Account email, or something like that. Specifically if the Contacts page is set to Yes for Parent Portal. Geez, I hope that makes sense.
    Thank you!!!

  7. 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.

    Defaulting 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.

  8. Add a Warning on the Scheduling Setup Page for Flex Scheduling

    From Trainers: If a district is transitioning to Flex for the first time and they copy over MST each, they must reach out to support for the conversion. So if they select the Flex option - a popup should appear that states something like, "If transitioning to Flex the copy MST feature is not enabled. Select the Scheduling Students into classes for Next Year option and contact support to enable for Flex". Also, if converting to Flex for the first time, the Copy MST should be disabled and not an option.

  9. CCGI- Honor the repeat tags

    Currently the CCGI course gradet template does not pull in the repeat tags on the student's transcript it includes the repeated courses in the extract. If we can add the repeat tags to the course grade template, then we can filter out the repeat tagged courses so they will not be uploaded to CCGI. Currently our gpa's will never match since the repeat tags do not count toward the GPA in Aeries.

    Thank you for the suggestion. We’ve confirmed with CCGI that Aeries is expected to send all courses, including repeated courses, as the UC application requires full course history. Because of this requirement, repeated courses cannot be excluded from the CCGI extract.


    The Course Grade Template layout is defined by CCGI, and Aeries is limited to the fields they currently support. At this time, CCGI does not provide a field for repeat tags. If CCGI adds support for repeated course indicators in the future, Aeries would be able to include that data in the extract.

  11. Multi-Factor Authentication - longer "Remember me" time

    When you enable MFA, users have a checkbox to remember their log in for 30 days. I'd like districts to be able to make that time period longer.

    After more correspondence with CDE it has been determined that College Course Level code 23 needs to remain available in Aeries. LEAs will need to be sure they are populating it correctly. College-level courses are those where the LEA/school has courses open for students to enroll in. This is not when a student takes a college course independently on their own that has no association or oversight with the school/LEA.

    We are no longer purusing this change. The idea will be closed.

  16. Display Student ID in Gradebook

    There is a new feature that allows the display of the Student ID directly in the gradebook. It would be helpful to allow the option of showing the “Student Number” instead.

    The Aeries Student ID number is unique to each student, and generally never changes. In the spirit of eliminating the student number throughout Aeries, which does change over time, we have decided to decline this request. It is still open for voting and comments and we will review in the future based on feedback received.

  17. Google Authentication - Log users out of Google when they log out of Aeries

    When users, including parents and students, log out of Aeries it signs them out of Aeries, but does not currently log them out of Google. Please adjust the process to have an option to also log the user out of Google.

    This is working as designed. Only courses manually entered on the Transcript have the Date of Completion entered. All other courses for Texas State Reporting use the Course Attendance Stop Date as the Date of Completion.

  19. Parent Data Confirmation Residence Survey - Change the Wording of Unaccompanied Youth

    Can the wording be changed from “I am a student under the age of 18…” to “The student is under the age of 18...”? Our District does not give Aeries Parent Portal access to students under the age of 18.
