Suggested resolution

“Missing” can mean absent, mistimed, mismatched, or superseded

A record may exist in the SEDS or CALPADS ODS and still fail the relationship because the SSID, Reporting LEA, Reporting SELPA, plan type/reason, or effective dates do not line up. Diagnose the complete history before adding another record.

The lifecycle CALPADS is reconstructing

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Locate the exact snapshot row

    Match the SSID, Reporting LEA/SELPA, operative dates, and snapshot revision identified by PLAN0628F1.

  2. 2

    Build one effective-date timeline

    Place SENR, every SWDS status, MEET, PLAN, and SERV record in chronological order before editing anything.

  3. 3

    Test identifiers and ownership

    Compare SSID, Reporting LEA, Reporting SELPA, school, local IDs, and MID history as applicable.

  4. 4

    Verify authoritative evidence

    Identify the exact census enrollment and school type. Distinguish public school, private-school code 0000002, and NPS enrollment. Verify the operative Plan Type before choosing the reason. Do not select a reason from its label alone; use the current combination table. Special education staff and the SEDS own SWDS, MEET, PLAN, and SERV facts; enrollment staff and the SIS own SENR; the CALPADS/SELPA process reconciles identifiers, LEA/SELPA ownership, and effective dates.

  5. 5

    Make the supported correction

    Correct the supported PLAN reason, plan type, or SENR school/date relationship after comparing the current valid-code combinations. Repair the owning source/export so the discrepancy is not recreated.

  6. 6

    Regenerate and reconcile

    Regenerate Fall 1, verify PLAN0628F1 clears, and reconcile 1.0 Certification Errors; 16.12 Students with Disabilities Education Plan by Primary Disability; 16.14 Students with Disabilities Plan Student List; 16.15 Students with Disabilities Services; 16.16 Students with Disabilities Services Student List; 16.17 Students with Disabilities Annual Comparison; applicable SELPA reports. Aggregate and student-level histories must agree.
