STAS0318

Invalid Total Absences and Days Attended



Submission: STAS
Status: Active
Severity: Fatal
Input Validation: X
Data Discrepancy: N/A


ACTIVE DEFECTS:

None

ERROR DESCRIPTION:

When populated, the total days for all absences and days attended must equal the Expected Attendance Days

FIELDS VALIDATED:

  • 13.15 Expected Attendance Days
  • 13.16 Days Attended In-Person
  • 13.17 Days Absent Out-of-School Suspension
  • 13.18 Days in Attendance In-School Suspension
  • 13.19 Days Absent In-Person Excused Non-Suspension
  • 13.20 Days Absent In-Person Unexcused Non-Suspension
  • 13.21 Non-ADA Generating Independent Study Days
  • 13.22 ADA-Generating Independent Study Days

SUGGESTED RESOLUTION:

Understanding the Error:

The sum of a student's total days absent (out-of-school suspension days, unexcused absence days, excused absent days, non-ADA generating independent study days, and ADA-generating independent study days) plus the days attended (days attended in-person and days in attendance in-school suspension) must equal the days they were expected to attend.

Things to check for in submission: 1) Verify that the various counts are correct.

2) Verify that Days Attended In-Person count does not include Days In Attendance In-School Suspension (collected separately), or non-ADA Generating Independent Study Days and ADA-Generating Independent Study Days as these are not considered attending school in-person.

Suggested Resolution:

1) If this error occurs in combination with another error (STAS0307, STAS0309, STAS0310, STAS0311, or STAS0588) due to invalid Out-of-School Suspension Days, Unexcused Absence Days, Excused Absence Days, Non-ADA Generating Independent Study Days, or ADA Generating Independent Study Days; then fixing the incorrect count noted in the other invalid validation error would likely resolve this error. OR 2) If this error does not trigger in combination with errors mentioned in suggested resolution #1, then correct one or more of the following counts: expected attendance days, days attended in-person, days in attendance in-school suspension, out-of-school suspensions, excused absences, unexcused absences, non-ADA generating independent study days, or ADA generating independent study days.
