Discipline Actions (Texas v4.0)

This event entity represents actions taken by an education organization after a disruptive event that is recorded as a discipline incident.

Object Triggering Logic

Action	Trigger
Post	Reports when a Behavior Resolution is added to an incident that is marked as Complete and is aligned to a reported Behavior Event. Do not send if the student is in a calendar marked as Exclude. Do not send if the student is in a School marked as Exclude. The Resolution must be mapped to an Ed-Fi value. Do not send if the Resolution Start Date is NULL.
Delete/Post	When data that is part of the Natural Key is changed. If the discipline date is changed do a delete and post. If the resolution date is changed do a delete and post.
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 a resolution is deleted.
Delete	When all resolutions are removed from the incident.
Delete	When all Behavior Events are removed from the incident.
Delete	When the student's Role changes to a non-mapped dictionary value.
Delete	When all non-excluded enrollments in the school and year 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 an Ed-Fi ID changes, this will happen with the cascading deletes from the Ed-Fi ID Change trigger. If the Discipline Date changes.
