Fall 2 Errors

SDEM errors involve identifying and demographic information for certificated and classified staff. They may concern SEIDs, names, employment dates, experience, education level, or other required values. Correct SDEM records before troubleshooting dependent staff assignment or course-section errors, since those files rely on an accurate staff record.

PSTS errors concern postsecondary outcomes reported for eligible students who exited special education. They may identify missing, invalid, or inconsistent education, employment, or training status information. Verify the student, reporting period, contact information, and applicable outcome codes before correcting and resubmitting the record.

SASS errors involve staff job assignments reported for a school or LEA. They may concern job classifications, assignment codes, dates, school ownership, or relationships to staff demographic and course-section records. Confirm that each assignment belongs to the correct SEID and accurately describes the employee’s duties during the reporting year.

Fall 2 certification errors evaluate staff, course, section, and student course data after file-level errors have been resolved. These checks often identify missing relationships, unexpected year-to-year changes, or incomplete instructional information. Use the applicable certification and supporting reports to identify the records requiring correction before certifying Fall 2.

CRSE errors involve course-section records submitted for an academic year and school. They may concern course codes, section identifiers, academic terms, instructional settings, staff assignments, or English learner services. Because CRSE records connect teachers and courses to student enrollments, confirm that their identifying fields match related SASS and SCSE records.

SCSE errors involve a student’s enrollment in a particular course section. These records must match an existing CRSE record using fields such as school, academic year, local course ID, section ID, and academic term. Verify both sides of the relationship when CALPADS cannot connect a student to the intended section.
