What the certification snapshot is testing
| Question | Meaning | Operational response |
|---|---|---|
| What passed? | The source record was structurally acceptable. | Do not assume acceptance proves that all companion records exist. |
| What was expected? | A person classified as a teacher lacks Staff Employment Status in SDEM. | Compare the complete Fall 2 snapshot, not only the last uploaded file. |
| Who owns the evidence? | HR/SDEM employment record | Reconcile CALPADS with the authoritative source before editing. |
| What action is appropriate? | Update the correct SDEM history with the supported employment-status code | Add, correct, close, or remove only records supported by evidence. |
High-value checks
Recommended correction path
- 1
Preserve the certification evidence
Capture the revision, school, reporting year, affected identifiers, and current detail-report rows.
- 2
Verify the expected population
Determine whether the apparent gap is real, a legitimate zero, an exemption, or an incorrect source record.
- 3
Trace the complete relationship
Compare the shared identifiers, effective dates, Census Day status, and related file families.
- 4
Return to the authoritative source
Use hr/sdem employment record; protect staff and student information while reconciling.
- 5
Apply the supported correction
Update the correct SDEM history with the supported employment-status code. Repair repeatable SIS, HR, SEDS, or scheduling mappings when applicable.
- 6
Repost, regenerate, and compare
Wait for processing, regenerate the certification snapshot, and confirm both the error and downstream counts are corrected.

Things to check in the submission: Compare the record in the submission to the records that already exist for the staff in CALPADS to verify the staff employment status is populated who a teacher. Suggested Resolution: If you intended to make a change to an existing record, then submit the information as a change.
