Import Fall Enrollment Count Records

See the Uploading Files section of the MT Data Upload article for detailed information about importing records via the MT Data Upload tool. 

The Retrieve New Student State ID File option is only relevant to Student Demographic uploads. Please ignore this option when uploading Attendance - Fall Count data.

Fall Enrollment Count Logic

The following logic is used when importing data:

  • Logic looks for enrollment records within the calendar instead of matching on schedule structure.
  • When a student has multiple enrollment records, the most recent primary enrollment record is imported, unless the import has a start date or is importing off the active flag.
  • When the student has multiple enrollment records and no primary enrollment record exists, the Partial or Special Ed enrollment record is used, unless the import has an enrollment type, then existing matching logic is used.
  • When the student has multiple enrollment records with the same start date and neither is end dated, the enrollment with the highest enrollment ID is used. 

File import completion does NOT initiate an Enrollment resync.
