SELA0255

Invalid change in English Language Acquisition Status Code



Submission: SELA
Status: Active
Severity: Fatal
Input Validation: X
Data Discrepancy: X


ACTIVE DEFECTS:

None

ERROR DESCRIPTION:

If a student's English Language Acquisition Status (ELAS) Code is being submitted, then them the immediate ELAS Code currently stored in the CALPADS ODS must be a valid ELAS in combination with the subsequent ELAS being submitted. Reference (Valid Code Combos, Current ELAS-Submtd ELAS)

FIELDS VALIDATED:

  • 12.13 English Language Acquisition Status Code
  • SELA UI - Correction Reason Code

SUGGESTED RESOLUTION:

Understanding the Error:

The SELA record submitted or recently added to the ODS contains an English Language Acquisition Status Code that is not valid based on the immediate previous English Language Acquisition Status Code in the ODS. There are some instances where the combination is only valid if a correction reason code is also being submitted.

Things to check for in file submission: Ensure either 1) the correct value for English Language Acquisition Status Code is provided in the submitted record based on the logical sequence that is allowable, or 2) if a correction reason code is required then submit record via online maintenance. See http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/systemdocs.asp for the "CALPADS Valid Code Combinations" document.

Suggested Resolution:

If the English Language Acquisition Status (ELAS) code is incorrectly populated and you intend to make a correction to an existing record, then modify the ELA Correction Reason Code being submitted based on the logical sequence that is allowable.

File Input - If the English Language Acquisition Status Code with immediate previous Effective Start Date in ODS and the subsequent English Language Acquisition Status Code being submitted with a greater or equal Effective Start Date does note quest a valid combination Reference (Valid Code Combos, Current ELAS-Submtd ELAS)

Data Discrepancy - If SSID is currently enrolled in the reporting LEA AND English Language Acquisition Status Code with immediate previous Effective Start Date in ODS and the subsequent English Language Acquisition Status Code being submitted with a greater or equal Effective Start Date does not equal a valid combination Reference (Valid Code Combos, Current ELAS-Submtd ELAS)
