School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync Logic

This table describes the School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync logic of this object.

Action	Trigger
None	If a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data will remain in the ODS but no new data will send.
Resync	If a record is in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table and not in the ODS, it will be 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 will be deleted from the ODS.

Scope Year Logic

This table describes scope year logic of this object.

Business Rules
A parent record will report when they are a guardian to a student with an enrollment aligned to a scoped year. The related pair start date must be null or on/before the scope year end date to report. The related pair end date must be null or on/after the scope year end date to report. Data will only send for the years that have valid configuration. A resync must be completed on the Parents resource when a new scope year is connected in order for this data to send.
When using data in Campus that has an effective date, the following logic will be applied to determine the scope year(s) to report the data to. Current Year: Records will be compared to today's date to determine if the record is eligible to report. Previous Years: The record's date must be on or before the schools year's end date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 6/30/xxxx is used. Future Years: The record's date must be on or after the schools year's start date defined in the School Years editor. If blank, the default date of 7/01/xxxx is used.
When using data in Campus that have start and end dates, the following logic will be applied to determine the scope year(s) to report the data to.

Previous Years: The record's start date must be on or before the school year's end date and the record's end date must be after the school year's end date defined in the School Years editor.
