Online Enrollment - Allow the use of dates instead of ages to determine if student is able to enroll.
Online Enrollment. Request to have the Enrollment Age Limits changed from age to birthdates. Even the option to use age and/or birthdate. A birthdate would assist in input errors or allowing parents to continue the process for students who are too young.

CALPADS-N470-NoShow records should populate day before enrollment date, NOT day before school starts
When I extract an SENR file - Extract all data this Year, students who have an SSID number AND are N470 extract in the file. When they are extracted Aeries changes their SWR/Leave date to one day prior to the first day of school according to the school calendar. However, when Aeries changes the enrollment date the SPED record no longer aligns with the enrollment date and it causes a problem every time.
I will resolve this on my end by removing the SSID number for the student. This will prevent the record from being extracted.
Surely, I'm not the…

Demographics - Online Enrollment Import - Sort by Enroll Date
Set the Student Import Screen to sort by "Enroll Date" not "Enroll ID". It's difficult to find the most recently enrolled student when you have a huge list of enrollees sitting in the import screen.
If that is not doable then give the option of sorting by "Enroll Date".

Revision Notes Review
It would be nice if there was a weekly meeting to demonstrate revision notes or explain functionality changes (by region). This way all users have an opportunity to see how new features work or hear the benefits at the same time. Customers would benefit from a regularly scheduled Revision Notes meeting. Otherwise, Aeries team has to field individual tickets from individual customers (maybe more at one site) to explain individual features when they don't understand or when the knowledgebase has not been updated.
1 voteWe have established regular events for our Texas customers, and will pursue establishing similar events company-wide in the future. https://www.aeries.com/events/

Weekly Engagement Report error for Elem w/MST Daily ATT

Ability to have both Standards Based Grading and Regular Grading in a K-8 School with period attendance.
We have a K-8 School that uses period attendance. The k-3 students only have 1 teacher for period 0. They would need to enter grades using Standards based Grading. However the remainder of the school grades 4-8 use regular grading. We would like the ability to offer both in one school based on grade level. The only alternative right now would be splitting the school up into 2 different school sites, which is a logistical nightmare for both reports, integrations, etc.
6 votesHello! This feature has been added as of the 6/17/2021 Aeries version! Here is the revision note:
School Options

District Assets-Add option to "filter" for items in the District Asset Detail Items tab.
From the District Assets "Resources/Assets", we'd like the ability to filter the "list" of Items the Asset has, by a search option by either item or bar code.
Or
provide a "quick link" to the item details from the 'quick asset look up' page, by selecting the "item" number? It could link into asset detail "items" page? sometimes we just need a serial number or a mac address.14 votesHello, this idea has been completed in the 09/17/2024 update.

504 Plan should have option to not auto close and keep it open.
Currently, Aeries will generate end date of 504 plan every year and generate a new open date at the beginning of the year. I would like to have the option to not close automatically and keep the plan open.

Add option for Inactive teachers in Weekly Instructional Minutes
I know this was done by design because districts specifically requested that inactive teachers be suppressed from the drop-down lists, but this is affecting teachers that left mid-year now too! So now we can't audit the minutes certifications for any teacher that left mid-year. This is an audit issue! We need to access inactive teachers, so can it please be added as an option we can check on the Weekly Instructional Minutes page.
