Do not automatically change field 3.13 to 122. The service code may be the stray value. First determine which program relationship the row is intended to report.

Common causes

  • A previous student or program row supplied a carried-forward service value.
  • The export populates a default Education Service Code on every SPRG record.
  • A local service or intervention field is mapped to CALPADS field 3.18 for all programs.
  • The record was intended as Title I Targeted, but field 3.13 contains the wrong program.
  • A schoolwide benefit was incorrectly converted into an individual code-122 record.

Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Identify the intended program

    Use authoritative program records—not the rejected combination—to determine what this SPRG row represents.

  2. 2

    Verify the school’s Title I model

    If Title I is involved, confirm targeted assistance versus schoolwide status for the reported year.

  3. 3

    Align the fields

    For verified targeted-assistance participation, use 122 with the supported service code. For every other program, retain the correct program code and clear field 3.18.

  4. 4

    Repair conditional export logic

    Configure the extract so field 3.18 is emitted only when field 3.13 equals 122.

  5. 5

    Resubmit and audit

    Check other SPRG records for service values incorrectly attached to non-122 programs.
