  2. Confirm the documented value. Compare every validated field with the authoritative source and the current CALPADS rule.
  3. Locate the true point of failure. Determine whether the issue is in source documentation, IEP/SEDS entry, SIS data, mapping, extract logic, or an existing CALPADS record.

  5. Regenerate and verify. Confirm the accepted effective-dated PLAN record, review connected records, and check whether the same mapping affected other students.
