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 the SELPA Code has an active relationship with the Reporting LEA on either the "As Of" date or Academic Year ID in the submitted PLAN record.
Note: The "As Of" date of a PLAN record is equal to Special Education Plan Effective Start Date and only looking at records that greater than or equal to July 1, 2019.

Suggested Resolution: Verify that Reporting SELPA and LEA codes are correct.
