Object Triggering Logic

This table describes logic for triggering syncing of this object.

ActionTrigger
Post

Report a StudentAcademicRecord instance for each school year in which the student has a transcript record and they have a Student School Association record for the scoped year.

  • When Term Type cannot be determined on a Transcript record,  provide an error with the following message, "Could not identify valid term type for transcript record".

  • We will post to update the Cumulative Earned Credits and Cumulative Attempted Credits fields when the Attempted and Earned Credit fields are updated or a new transcript record is added added/deleted with an Attempted/Earned Credit Value that is not null and is greater than 0.

  • Do not send a record if the transcript's score is null.
Post/Put

When a student is given a Diploma Date and Diploma Type.

  • Only post for the records in the Scope Year the Diploma Date is associated.

  • If the student already has SAR records from posted Transcript records, update existing records with the Diploma information.

  • If all of the student's transcript records are deleted, a new SAR will post from the Diploma Record.

  • If the student does not have any SAR records from posted Transcript records, create 1 record with the Term Descriptor that is aligned to the Term that the Diploma Date occurs in.

  • If the Term Descriptor cannot be determined, an error with the following message displays, "Could not identify a valid term type for diploma record"

  • If the Diploma date and/or Diploma Type fields are made NULL, the SAR record will delete.
DeleteIf records are posted from course transcript records and no Diploma information exits, all Student Academic Records will only delete when a student has only 1 Student School Association record for a specific Year and all Student School Association records are deleted.
Delete

If a Graduation record is deleted and the student does not have any transcript records that would create a Student Academic Record.

DeleteIf the Diploma Date is changed to no longer occur in the configured year and the student does not have any transcript records that would create a Student Academic Record.

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.

ActionTrigger
NoneIf a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data will remain in the ODS but no new data will send.
DeleteIf a resource is toggled to 'OFF" after data has sent and an action is performed that would trigger a delete, that data will remain in the ODS until a resync is done.
ResyncIf 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.
ResyncIf 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.
ResyncIf a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync will need to be done to reflect the changes.

Natural Key Changes, Cascading Updates, and Deletes Logic

This table describes the Natural Key Changes/Cascading Updates and Deletes logic of this object.

ActionTrigger
Delete/Post

If any part of the Natural Key Changes

  • If the District Number changes all data will remain under the old number. The delete tool would need to be used to remove all old data.

Delete/PostIf an Ed-Fi ID changes, this will happen with the cascading deletes from the Ed-Fi ID Change trigger.
Delete/PostIf the End Year the transcript record or diploma record is aligned to changes.
Delete/PostIf the Term Descriptor is changed.
Delete/PostIf the natural key changes all dependent resources will delete/post.
Dependent ResourcesCourse Transcripts


Scope Year Logic

This table describes scope year logic of this object.

Logic

Records will send to each scope year in which the Course Transcript record is posted.

Records will only post to the SAR records for the year the diploma date occurs in but SAR records will post to all scoped years.

  • The Diploma Date must be on or after the school year's start date and on or before the school year's end date defined in the School Years editor.  If blank, the default start date of 7/1/xxxx and end date of 6/30/xxxx are used.
Data will only send for years that have a valid configuration.

termDescriptor   The term for the session during the school year.
  1. When reporting Transcript records with an end year that is equal to the configured year and are posted from a course and have a scoreID:
    • Report the mapped Ed-Fi code for the value selected in "Ed-Fi Transcript Term Override" field on the transcript.
    • If Ed-Fi Transcript Term Override is NULL, report the mapped Term Descriptor based on the Course Ed-Fi Term Descriptor Override, else Section Ed-Fi Term Descriptor Override.  
    • When the Ed-Fi Transcript Term Override field and the Ed-Fi Term Descriptor Override on both the Course Term and the Section Term Override fields are Null, report the Term Descriptor for the term aligned to the Grading Score for the posted Grade
    • Else, report the Ed-Fi Code from the Ed-Fi Transcript Term Descriptor Override in the SAR preferences.
    • If a Term cannot be determined, provide error
  2. When reporting Transcript records with an end year that is not equal to the configured year and are posted from a course and have a scoreID:
    • Report the mapped Ed-Fi code for the value selected in "Ed-Fi Transcript Term Override" field on the transcript.
    • If the Ed-Fi Transcript Term Override field is NULL, look at the sequence from the term the score ID is aligned to in the year the record was posted.   Then report the Term Descriptor from the term with the same sequence in the configured year in the same school.
      • Use Primary Term schedule if there is more than 1 Term Schedule.
      • If more than 1 primary Term Schedule, pick the highest TermID
    • Else, report the Ed-Fi Code from the Ed-Fi Transcript Term Descriptor Override in the SAR preferences.
    • If a Term cannot be determined, provide error
  3. When reporting Transcript records that are manually added without a scoreID:
    • Report the Ed-Fi Term Descriptor Override selected on the transcript record.
    • Else, report the Ed-Fi Code from the Ed-Fi Transcript Term Descriptor Override in the SAR preferences
    • If a Term cannot be determined, provide error
  4. When the SAR is posted only from the Graduation Record because there are no Course Transcripts records for the student, report the Ed-Fi Term Descriptor from the Sessions Resource Preferences that the Diploma Date overlaps in the School where the student is enrolled
    • If the Term is not mapped or the diploma date does not overlap a term, use the term descriptor from the term with the latest end date
    • If more than 1 term schedule, report from the Primary term schedule
    • If the Diploma Date is aligned to more than 1 eligibile Term Descriptor, report the value from the highest TermId
