Technical Information

See the Technical Information - Release Pack Campus.2136 article for a list of schema changes in this release.

Activities/Sports

Student Information– Activity Eligibility Report Update (SIS-58697)

If a student was scheduled into multiple sections of the same course during the same term, the Activity Eligibility Report only pulled grades from one of the course sections instead of both. This has been fixed.

Article(s): Activity Eligibility

Path: Student Information > Reports > Activity Eligibility Report


Student Information– Activity Eligibility Report Available In New Formats (SIS-100480) [Enhancement] 

CSV has been added to the available formats the Activity Eligibility Report can be generated in.

Path: Student Information > Reports > Activity Eligibility

Activity Registration

Activity Registration Maintenance (SIS-148638)

The following improvements were made to the Activity Roll Forward tool.

  • The error message that displays for the user when they attempt to delete a custom form associated with an activity was improved.
  • The Inventory Limit now rolls forward from the original activity. Previously, the limit was reduced by the number that was purchased on the original activity. This issue was corrected.
  • A new checkbox called Fill All was added to the second step of the roll forward process. The Fill All checkbox allows users to quickly select all activities and use the Fill Information window to assign registration and activity dates en masse.
  • The Update Forms panel was updated to allow users to mark the default form as required. In addition, the Form Title field was changed to be a dropdown list and allows users to change the forms without having to remove them.
  • The error messages that can display when users complete the roll forward now display in a window that is easier to read.
  • It's now easier for users to ignore activities that they initially selected to roll forward but later decided not to complete. Campus displays an alert that lists the activities that cannot roll forward because of missing data. At that point, the user can choose to continue by ignoring those activities or return to the Activity Roll Forward tool to complete the missing information.

Article(s): Activity Registration

Path: Activity Registration


Activity Roll Forward Update (SIS-149067)

Campus was not saving the correct registration and activity dates in the database when new activities were created using the Activity Roll Forward tool. This issue was causing activities to display in Campus Student and Campus Parent portal when they should not and hiding other activities when they should have displayed. This issue was corrected.

Article(s): Activity Roll Forward

Path: Activity Registration > Activity Roll Forward

Ad hoc Reporting

Ad Hoc Reporting–Chronic Absenteeism Information Tool Rights Not Respecting Ad Hoc Reporting (SIS-149308)

In Ad Hoc Reporting, State Edition users can view Aggregated Attendance details if they minimally have Read tool rights to Chronic Absenteeism Information (Tool Rights Path: Attendance > Chronic Absenteeism Information). When a user with qualifying tool rights attempted to view the aggregated attendance data in Ad hoc they incorrectly received an error token. This has been fixed.

Article(s): N/A

Path: Ad Hoc Reporting; Tool Rights Path: Attendance > Chronic Absenteeism

Attendance

Attendance– Attendance Wizard Displaying Non-Attendance Day Warning (SIS-116961)

An issue was causing a non-attendance day warning to trigger in the Attendance Wizard when a user changed the date from a non-attendance day to an attendance day and attempted to save. This has been fixed.

Article(s): Attendance Wizard

Path: Attendance > Attendance Wizard

Campus Instruction

Uncategorized Assignments in the Control Center (SIS-142889)

Previously, uncategorized assignments displayed in the assignment list of the Control Center, but the assignments could not be opened because they did not have grading alignments and an error occurred. This has been corrected. A new filter has been added to the assignment list for Unaligned assignments. When a teacher clicks one of these assignments to view it, they will be prompted to setup grading for the assignment, after which it can be scored.

Article(s): Control Center

Path: Instruction > Control Center


Missing Assignments with Scores (SIS-147958)

When a teacher enters a score for an assignment flagged as Missing, a warning displays. An assignment can only be flagged as Missing and have a score if it has been received from another program through the OneRoster API. In this instance, logic has been updated so that if the teacher clicks Cancel in that warning, the existing score is not deleted.

Article(s): Scoring Assignments

Path: Instruction > Grade Book > score a Missing assignment


Missing Assignment with Multiple Alignments (SIS-148295)

Previously, an assignment with multiple alignments could have one alignment scored and another marked as Missing, if the missing flag was added after the score. This should not be possible and has been corrected.

Article(s) Scoring Assignments

Path: Instruction > Grade Book

Census

Mailing Labels Printing without Guardian (SIS-137134)

When printing Mailing Labels for Guardians, if a guardian has more than one student included in the scope of the report, or when a guardian is tied to more than one household with the same address, additional mailing labels are being generated that included only the address with no matching guardian name. This has been corrected.

Article(s): Mailing Labels Report

Path: Census > Reports > Mailing Labels


Student Number Format - State ID as Student Number (SIS-148329)

For districts not linked to a State Edition, the Student Number Format preference of _Use State ID as Student Number_ was not populating the Student Number field when creating a student through the Student Locator. This has been corrected.

Article(s): Student Locator, Student Number Format

Path: Census > Reports > Mailing Labels; System Administration > Preferences > Student Number Format


Mailing Labels, Health Office Visits Cancellation - Calendar Selection (SIS-149042)

Users no longer need Modify Rights to a calendar to select a calendar when generating the Mailing Labels report or when cancelling a Health Office Visit.

Article(s): Mailing Labels Report; Health Office Visit Cancellations

Path: Census > Reports > Mailing Labels; Health > Health Office Visit Cancellations

Custom

Path: System Administration > Ed-Fi


Ed-Fi Resync Logic Update (SIS-149041) [Enhancement] 

The resync logic has been updated to support users with a core Ed-Fi connection that are using a vendor that has implemented a multi-tenant setup. Infinite Campus will only support one open connection at a time when a multi-tenant setup is being used.

Article(s): Ed-Fi Configurations Tool – Ed-Fi Connection

Path: System Administration > Ed-Fi

Forms

Form Batch Setup Fix (SIS-148958)

An issue with the Check Status screen on the Form Batch Setup tool not loading if an Enrollment for a student is deleted has been resolved. If the student's Enrollment has been deleted after a Form has been generated, "No grade found" displays in the Grade column. For eSignature Forms, an End Date may be entered to allow the Form on the Portal to expire.

Path: Student Information > Form Batch Setup

Selected Pay Types display in the ""Selected Types"" window and can be removed if necessary before the report is generated.

Article(s): STAR LA Extract (Human Resources) (Minnesota)

Path: Human Resources > Reports > STAR Extracts > STAR LA

Path: Human Resources > Personnel > Personnel Master > Work Assignments > Work Assignment Details > Work Locations

Learner Planning

Special Ed Amend Fix (SIS-146557)

Online Payments

Inactive Payments Added to Recurring Payments Report (SIS-144704) [Enhancement] 

Districts can now see inactive payments on the Recurring Payments Report. A recurring payment becomes inactive when it reaches its End Date or when the portal user deletes or modifies the payment. A new toggle called "Display Inactive Recurring Payments" was added to the screen. When set to ON, inactive and active recurring payments display. The inactive payments will display with the label "inactive" or "deleted."

As part of this change, the following new columns were added to the report. These new fields only display if you add them using the "Select Column" tool.

Walk-In Scheduler - Courses with Combined Scheduling Rule (SIS-149149) (148873)

When using the Combined Scheduling Rule, searching for courses in the Walk-In Scheduler returned an error. This was related to there being three or more combined course sections, differing student counts for the combined sections, and differing max seat counts for the combined sections. In addition, the total number of students scheduled into a section that is combined was incorrect.

These issues have been corrected.

Character Lab Student Thriving Index Now Available (SIS-147874) [Enhancement] 

The Student Thriving Index is now available. This tool is used for the formative assessment of student social, emotional, academic, and physical well-being. This survey was developed by Dr. Angela Duckworth, CEO of Character Lab with support from researchers in their research network and feedback from Character Lab school partners.

Repeated participation in the Student Thriving Index allows schools and organizations to monitor student well-being topics such as sleep habits, social media use, and sense of belonging. School staff, district leaders, or organizational leaders can act on the results by identifying areas for improvement and sharing relevant resources to support their students.
