Unique Staff Identifier (USID) Import (Oregon)

Tool Search: SSID and USID Imports

The Unique Staff Identifier (USID) File provides a way to request a Unique Staff Identifiers (SSID) for staff who have never had a USID record assigned to them by the state of Oregon. This file generates for the entire district for the School Year in the Campus toolbar.

The Unique Staff Identifier (USID) provides a way to import Staff Identifiers for staff who do not have a staff state ID already. When the staff person's Person ID, Name, Gender, Race/Ethnicity and Date of Birth match, staff IDs are imported. This file generates for the entire district using the School Year in the Campus toolbar.

This is a two-fold process: 

  1. Generate the Unique Staff Identifier Extract to find the staff who DO NOT already have USIDs. This is then sent to the state to request the IDs.
  2. Once the SSIDs have been assigned, use the Import to assign the USIDs to staff records in Campus.

Import Logic

When a match in the Import file is found with data that is an exact match for all required fields in Campus already, but that record already contains an ID, the new ID IMPORTS and OVERWRITES the existing value

Staff IDs are NOT IMPORTED in the following situations:

  • When a matching Person ID is not found.
  • When a matching Birth Date is not found.
  • When a matching First Name, Middle Initial, Last Name and Gender is not found (Protected Identity Information is not marked on the Report Editor).
  • When a matching Legal First Name, Legal Middle Initial, Legal Last Name and Legal Gender is not found (Protected Identity Information is marked on the Report Editor).
  • When the import file is not found on the server.
  • When the following fields are not populated:
    • Staff State ID
    • Person ID
    • First Name
    • Last Name
    • Gender
    • Birth Date

A header row is expected on the file. When the first row of the file contains staff data, it is ignored.
