People to involveCALPADS coordinator, case manager or school psychologist, special education program owner, and IEP/SEDS mapping support.
Connected recordsReview primary and secondary disability, degree of support, PLAN type, program setting, SWDS status, and related extract rules.

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: Disability Code 2 if populated must not be equal to Disability Code 1.
