Understanding the Error: The CALPADS File Specifications (CFS) document designates a maximum length for fields submitted in a file for upload into CALPADS. One or more of the fields in this file exceed that maximum length.

Things to check for in submission: Verify that the fields listed in the Fields Validated column do not exceed the published maximum length.

Suggested Resolution:
1) See http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/systemdocs.asp for the "CALPADS File Specifications" document for maximum field lengths.
