Fixes/Updates

Student

1. A column has been added to the student assessment grid called 'External Import.' This column will display 'Yes' if the assessment was imported via an integrated import. Assessments that were manually imported by the user will display 'No.'

2. Updates were made to the DRC LACES-TABE integration.

Test results for students who are entered into more than one agency in LACES will be imported into each agency where a matching student is found, if a District ID has been been added to the agency. However, students are prevented from counting on NRS Table 2a with an externally imported assessments if they do not have a current FY intake date, current FY enrollment, or current FY hours.

Your state may have a customized assessment integration process for assessments other than TABE. The same workflow applies - when a matching student is found in multiple agencies, the test results will be imported to each student record. However,as with the DRC LACES-TABE integration, students are prevented from counting on NRS Table 2a with an externally imported assessments if they do not have a current FY intake date, current FY enrollment, or current FY hours.

This does not apply to assessments imported manually by a user. Students with a manually imported assessment in the current FY will count on Table 2a if they have less than 12 hours in a period of participation.

NOTE: These changes affect which students should display on the list of current fiscal year students. The Current Fiscal Year filter will be updated in the next release to omit these students from the list of current fiscal year students.

3. The following TASC assessment forms have been added:

  • TASC / English Form P
  • TASC / English Form Q
  • TASC / English Form R
  • TASC / Spanish Form P
  • TASC / Spanish Form Q
  • TASC / Spanish Form R

4. The Completed Level field at the student view manager and the student criteria builder search has been renamed to 'Completed Level FY/Subj.' This will display 'Yes' if a student completed a level during the fiscal year in their tracked subject area.

5. A change has been made to prevent multiple assessments in the same subject to be moved forward to the next fiscal year.

Staff

1. Staff with the classification 'Local Administrative' were being returned incorrectly as an invalid classification on the staff alert dashboard. This has been corrected.

Reports

1. The area name has been removed from the list of reports at the report manager. For example, at the student reports list, 'STUDENT' has been removed.
