  1. SINF Extract - Log info or notify user when a student has an error and 'failed' message displays

    When the SINF process runs and a student has a 'failed' message, it displays the 'Failed and Student ID number" until the process finishes then later displays as "Completed" when it's finished. The file is still downloadable and is valid for the customer to use. A solution is needed to better handle when a student has an error and the error needs to be resolved by the customer prior to running the SINF extract again.

  2. CALPADS SPRG ODS - enhance process for FRE records that need to be deleted

    CALPADS SPRG ODS - Enhance the reconciliation process for FRE records that need to be deleted.
    In the SPRG ODS Reconciliation process, the records with a date that started prior to the first day of school but after 6/30 of the previous year are being closed 1 day before the enrollment start date causing the record to receive a GERR0005 error in CALPADS and will not post successfully. LEAs do not have ownership which is causing LEAs to have to manually clean up data, in some cases hundreds of records.

    Hello, this idea (or bug) has been completed in the 9/15/2023 update. Here are the Revision Notes:


    • CALPADS Extracts:
      The page now supports the new three-character language codes for the 2023-2024 school year, which will be effective 9/19/2023. The translations will automatically be added to the cross-reference table (XRF). 
    • The Parent Education Level is now extracted from the Ed Level field on the Contacts page (CON.ELV) for both parents according to the Codes Identifying Parent/Guardian in Contacts CON.CD on District Settings, due to changes in the CALPADS state requirements. If the district setting is blank, primary contacts are extracted. 
    • The Get Parent/Guardian Information from STU.PG and STU.PED (instead of CON) option is now disabled due to the changed requirements.
    • A date picker was added allowing users to select the date on which changes are submitted. The default date can be changed as needed.

    • For the CRSE and CRSC extracts, the State Course codes list was updated to include Cambridge World Languages which now support extracting the Course Content Area subcategory. 


  7. SSID MATCH TOOL PROCESS DOWNLOAD FILE NEEDS ADJUSTING TO ALIGN WITH CALPADS 23-24 changes

    The logic in the SSID Match process is using the SENR layout when the file is produced which needs to be updated to align with the CALPADS 23-24 rollover changes that went into effect on 9/19/2023. The file being produced needs an additional column added to accommodate the STU.GEX field.

    In a school where "Allow Individual Sections to be Flagged for Alt Ed Scheduling" is enabled in School Options, and the "Alt Ed Sched" (MST.AE) in the Master Schedule page is selected, add a prefix to the virtual Course section ID number in the SCSE/C and CRSE/C extracts to properly identify the Section number as a unique, virtualized number.

    Hello,

    This feature has been added in the 3/30/2023 Aeries update.  Here are the Revision Notes:

    CALPADS Extracts - For California users, the SSID Match feature was added to facilitate recent changes to the CALPADS SSID Match Results process. A SSID Requests file can be generated from the Identifiers tab, then the SSID Match Results file can be uploaded to Aeries. Once uploaded, the appropriate SSIDs can be selected for extract. 

    See CALPADS Extracts Identifier Tab - SSID Match Process

    Hello, this work item has been completed and was released on 6/3/25. Here are the relevant revision notes:


    School Info > Imports and Exports > CALPADS Extracts:

    • The auto-close enrollment logic has been enhanced to extract the proper school end date, if the school uses tracks for the SENR extract process. Before the end date extracted for E155 records in schools using tracks was generating the date from the last day of the Calendar if the last day was a track vacation day. Now the date extracted will be the last actual day attended for the student. 
    • A message was added to the Enrollment Update tab to indicate if the 'auto-close enrollment' option on the Other Options tab is ON or OFF, making this more visible to the user.

    Add an option to skip FRE records with the Source of Direct Cert (FRE.SRC = DC) in the SPRG files. This will allow the SPRG ODS process to not send up NSLP (FRE) records that have been created from the Direct Certification Import.

  17. SENR ODS reconciliation - unneeded removal records generated

    The SENR ODS reconciliation process is creating D records in the removals file needlessly when a student has an enrollment status change (such as grade level, school transfer) - commonly referred to as a 440 or E150 change. In these cases the enrollment date (start date) is not changing... nor are the other SENR operational key fields (School of Attendance, SSID, Start Date) - so a (D)elete record is not needed.

    Having uneeded (D)elete records in the removals file causes increased workload due to:
    - it requires an additional file to be posted.

    Hello, this issue has been resolved in the 3/23/2023 update.  Here are the Revision Notes:

    An unnecessary Delete record was generated when an E150 Exit Reason existed and the School, Student, and Enrollment Start Dates were the same, fixed.

  18. CALPADS SPRG process - Adjust Program Start/End Dates to Enrollment Dates when CALPADS 504 option is de-selected

    When the CALPADS option SPRG 504 Plans: Extract as an eligibility program with the program start date is de-selected, it should be analyzing enrollment dates and using enrollment Start and End dates instead of dates from FOF table if an FOF record exists and spans across school years.

    Currently, there is no logic to handle programs that span across different school years. An example would be a FOF records that spans from 09/22/2022 to 09/11/2023 or from 12/5/2022 to 12/5/2023

    Hello, this idea (or bug) has been completed in the 12/14/2023 update. Here are the Revision Notes:


    School Info > Exports and Imports > CALPADS Extracts

    • In flex and non-flex schools, the CALPADS > Fall 2 > Create Course Files (CRSE/SCSE) extract included sections that did not fall on the Census Date for itinerant teachers, which generated CERT079 error in CALPADS. The CRSE process for Itinerant Teachers now only extracts sections that meet on Information Day (Census Day).  See Flex Scheduling - CRSE Extract or CALPADS in Aeries Basic - Master Schedule.

    Hello, this issue has been resolved in the 6/22/22 update.  Here are the Revision Notes:

    CALPADS Extracts - The SENR Operational Data Store (ODS) tab now provides SENR extracts that are output in a zip file which contains separate files which are required due to changes with the operational key fields in the SENR extract. The sub-files are prepended with the order in which they should be uploaded, 001, 002, 003, etc.


    Further refinements of this process are planned, including redesigning the Enrollment Update page. Until then, please use this process for all SENR updates needed.
