Concrete diagnostic checks

  • Distinguish a missing required value from a missing column.
  • Verify the student identity, Reporting LEA, academic year, and program code from authoritative sources.
  • Do not invent a placeholder identifier or copy another student’s value.

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Preserve the rejected evidence

    Record the submission ID, row number, exact nine-field row, source file, export time, and rejected value before changing anything.

  2. 2

    Confirm the intended student, LEA, and year

    Match SSID and Local Student ID, confirm Reporting LEA, and place enrollment and participation inside the correct academic year.

  3. 3

    Trace the expanded-learning evidence

    Connect signed registration, eligible program, dated attendance, source vendor, and any deduplication or aggregation process.

  4. 4

    Apply the rule-specific checks

    Distinguish a missing required value from a missing column. Verify the student identity, Reporting LEA, academic year, and program code from authoritative sources. Do not invent a placeholder identifier or copy another student’s value.

  5. 5

    Correct the owning source

    Populate the verified required value in the owning system, regenerate LEAP, and check the full population for the same blank-producing rule.

  6. 6

    Regenerate, resubmit, and reconcile

    Confirm acceptance, then reconcile CALPADS Reports 19.1 and 19.2 with the registration roster and distinct-date evidence. Check every record affected by the same system rule.
