Resource Preferences
Resource Preferences determine which information is sent to Ed-Fi. These options apply to all schools within the district. If the state did not request a resource, it does not appear in this list, meaning different options may be available for different states. Some mapping screens may be 'read only' if specific business rules are required by your state. Consult your localized Ed-Fi articles for more information.
- Select the Resource Preferences button.
Click the Edit or Configure button to modify the resource preferences. Configure displays if preferences have not previously been saved. Edit displays when preferences have already been set and saved. Resources can be expanded by clicking the "+" sign or collapsed by clicking the " - " sign.
- Select a link below to view how to set the Resource Preferences.
Note: Resources will vary by state. - If needed, turn the resource preference to ON.
