Official rule in plain language

Severity: Fatal   Type: Input Validation

Fields validated

  • 24.16 Evaluation Type Code
  • 24.17 Plan Review Indicator

CFS Version 18 says 24.17 should be Y only when the meeting satisfies the statutory review of an established special education plan. It is not a generic “a plan was discussed” checkbox.

Describe what occurred—not merely that a meeting existed

EventMeeting completed or event pending.
ActivityEvaluation Type and/or qualifying Plan Review.
OutcomeRequired when an evaluation is completed.
Connected historyReconcile SWDS and PLAN consequences.

Concrete checks

  • Confirm no evaluation activity belongs in 24.16.
  • Verify the meeting satisfied the applicable plan-review requirement.
  • Do not use Y for any meeting that merely mentions or amends a plan.
  • Check whether the SEDS annual-review flag maps to 24.17.

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Preserve the rejected row

    Capture submission ID, SSID, Reporting LEA/SELPA, Academic Year, all MEET dates, activity indicators, outcome, delay, and the ODS history.

  2. 2

    Identify the event state

    Determine whether the activity was pending or completed and whether it involved an initial evaluation, reevaluation, plan review, or combination permitted by Version 18.

  3. 3

    Build the chronology

    Place referral, consent, pending checkpoints, meeting, determination, delay, SWDS, and PLAN events in order.

  4. 4

    Verify governing evidence

    Use signed meeting/evaluation records, procedural documentation, the SEDS, and the current code/combination definitions. Do not infer an outcome or delay reason.

  5. 5

    Correct the source and mapping

    Populate Y when the documented meeting qualifies as a plan review. Otherwise identify the actual evaluation activity or remove an unsupported MEET row. Repair any recurring export rule.

  6. 6

    Resubmit and reconcile

    Confirm acceptance, inspect the complete MEET history, and review connected SWDS/PLAN records and affected reporting results.
