Discipline Incidents (Indiana v3.6)

You are viewing a previous version of this article. See the Indiana Ed-Fi article for the most current information.

This event entity represents an occurrence of an infraction ranging from a minor behavioral problem that disrupts the orderly functioning of a school or classroom (such as tardiness) to a criminal act that results in the involvement of a law enforcement official (such as robbery). A single event (e.g., a fight) is one incident regardless of how many perpetrators or victims are involved. Discipline incidents are events classified as warranting discipline action.

Object Triggering Logic

Action	Trigger
Post	Reports a behavior incident when the incident's Status is marked and saved as "Complete". Incident must have at least one behavior event associated and the event is mapped to an Ed-Fi Value. Incident must have at least one student associated to an Event to report. Posting can occur if a new event is added after Incident is marked as "Complete". Does not send if the student is in a calendar marked as Exclude. Does not send if the student is in a School marked as Exclude.
Put Post/Delete	When data is change on the incident: Incident Details Date of Incident Event Type
Delete/Post	When the incident's status is changed. Delete when the status is changed from Completed to In Progress. Post when the status is changed from In Progress to Completed.
Delete	When an incident is deleted.
Delete	When all of the Student Discipline Incident Behavior Associations records associated with this Disciple Incident record are deleted.

School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync Logic

Action	Trigger
None	If a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data remains in the ODS but no new data sends.
Resync	If a record is in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table and not in the ODS, it is deleted from the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table.
Resync	If a record is in the ODS and it does not have a matching record in Campus or the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table, it is deleted from the ODS.
Resync	If a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync needs to be done to reflect the changes.

Natural Key Changes, Cascading Updates, and Deletes Logic

Action	Trigger
Post/Delete	Natural Key changes: If the School Number/Ed-Fi School Number changes, a delete/post occurs with the cascading deletes from the School ID Change triggers. If an Ed-Fi ID changes, this will happen with the cascading deletes from the Ed-Fi ID Change trigger.
Delete/Post	If the Incident is deleted all dependent resources delete.
