Fall 2 certification rule
Severity: Fatal Type: Certification Data Discrepancy
A student enrolled during the Academic Year has NO overlapping SINF record.
Records or fields compared
- SINF Data
Transactional acceptance is not the same as certification coherence. The snapshot is testing whether related records, effective dates and populations form one defensible Fall 2 account.
Correction ownership
| Question | Answer | Safeguard |
|---|---|---|
| What did the snapshot expect? | The Census Day enrollment lacks an overlapping effective SINF history record. | Review the complete population |
| Where is the authoritative evidence? | SIS demographic history, SINF effective dates, SENR and SSID identity | Protect confidential records |
| What correction is supported? | Restore truthful effective-dated history or correct the wrong enrollment/SSID; do not manufacture a Census Day row | Never add data merely to clear the error |
Repair history; do not manufacture a snapshot row
| Finding | Likely cause | Correction |
|---|---|---|
| SINF begins after Census Day | Late or wrong effective date | Restore the supported effective date |
| Earlier segment disappeared | Replacement or deletion removed history | Restore the supported prior segment |
| SINF is under another SSID | Identity split or wrong student | Reconcile SSID identity carefully |
| SENR dates/student are wrong | Enrollment relationship is faulty | Correct SENR rather than fabricating SINF |
| Annual rollover omitted history | Source/export failure | Repair the repeatable SINF process |
Recommended correction path
- 1
Preserve the current snapshot
Capture revision, school, year, identifiers, counts and relevant detail rows.
- 2
Classify the discrepancy
Separate a true zero or legitimate exception from a missing, stale, duplicated, mis-keyed or out-of-period record.
- 3
Trace all companion records
Compare shared identifiers, effective dates, Census Day status and the complete history—not only the last upload.
- 4
Verify authoritative evidence
Use sis demographic history, sinf effective dates, senr and ssid identity. Record what was checked and who confirmed it.
- 5
Apply only the supported correction
Restore truthful effective-dated history or correct the wrong enrollment/SSID; do not manufacture a Census Day row. Repair repeatable source mappings where applicable.
- 6
Regenerate and reconcile
Wait for processing, rebuild the Fall 2 snapshot, confirm the error clears, and compare downstream counts and detail reports.
Retained official CALPADS guidance
Understanding the Error: Students must a SINF record that overlaps their enrollments where enrollment status = 10 (primary), 30 (short-term), and 50 (non-ADA). Suggested Resolution: Add a Student Information record corresponding to the student's SENR record enrollment during the report period. Ensure all SINF records overlapping with their enrollment records contain Ethnicity/Race data.
