Recommended correction path

  1. 1

    Preserve the rejected CRSE row

    Capture School of Course Delivery, Academic Year, Term, Course Section ID, Local and State Course IDs, Class ID, SEID, and the fields named by CRSE0534.

  2. 2

    Match the local section

    Locate the exact master-schedule section and compare course catalog, teacher, term, period, and delivery school.

  3. 3

    Verify the official rule and combination

    Use the current CFS, code sets, Course Group Master combinations, and Valid Code Combinations as applicable. A code can be valid alone but invalid in this relationship.

  4. 4

    Trace the first divergence

    Compare authoritative curriculum/program evidence, SIS configuration, accepted SDEM/SASS records, the literal CRSE export, and CALPADS history.

  5. 5

    Correct the owning source

    Repair the inaccurate catalog attribute, section setting, staff relationship, crosswalk, or export logic. Avoid a one-off file edit that will recur.

  6. 6

    Resubmit and reconcile

    Confirm CRSE0534 clears, review Report 3.7 Course Section Enrollment and Report 4.3 Staff Teaching Assignments, and check related CRSE rows and SCSE memberships produced by the same mapping.
