People to involveCALPADS coordinator, case manager, program or placement administrator, service staff, and IEP/SEDS support.
Connected recordsReview PLAN type, program setting, general education participation, transportation, SERV records, and MEET decisions.

Recommended correction path

  1. Identify the exact student and plan iteration. Match SSID, Reporting LEA, Reporting SELPA, plan type, and Plan Effective Start Date before editing.
  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.
  4. Correct the owning system. Use the authorized local process; do not overwrite accurate program information merely to make the transaction post.
  5. Regenerate and verify. Confirm the accepted effective-dated PLAN record, review connected records, and check whether the same mapping affected other students.

Official CALPADS guidance

Understanding the Error: The system is validating that Special Transportation Indicator is populated when Special Education Plan Type = 100 (IEP).
