  1. 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.

    • since removing records represents potential data loss,…

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

  3. 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 07/27/2023 update. Here are the Revision Notes:

  4. Confidential checkbox on student group setup screen

    It would be great if we had the ability to check a box alongside the teacher view / communication view checkboxes that would make a student group sync to Communications as a Confidential group within Communications. Ideally flipping that switch on in Aeries would toggle the option on in ParentSquare, with the ability to control within parentsquare feeding back and changing the value in Aeries... but in the meantime a box within Aeries that forces it to be enabled in parentsquare would be ok.

    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.

  9. CCGI Extract Does Not Include Duplicate Transcript Records in Same Term

    The CCGI extract ignores the second course a student takes with the same course code, mark, credits attempted and credits completed in a single semester (we use F/S). Our quarter classes are not extracting correctly. The quarter classes are added to the transcript with the semester term values of 1 and 2, so some students will have 2 records with the same year, course code and term for their quarter classes. When these students receive the same mark for both quarters, then the 2nd mark will not be included in the CCGI Extract.

  13. In Flex Schools, the Period Absence Audit report printed by teacher should display attendance for all classes

    When printing this report in Flex Schools, the Period Absence Audit Report when sorted by Teacher should display all classes for the student instead of just the one belonging to the teacher. This report is not efficient when printing each student's absence for the given teacher without seeing the entire schedule along with absence to determine the anomaly. For example, the outcome of the report should display just as printed by Student where it shows all classes except it should be sorted by the Teacher so that each teacher can determine if their attendance is correct or needs to be…

    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.
