    ‘Preview/Print’ button does not work

The Print/Preview button is designed to put all IEP pages in order and number them.  This will generate your “Draft”. Therefore, you must submit all required forms before you can preview and print the full document using this feature. Until this is done the ‘Preview/Print’ button will be faded. If you need to print one of the pages of the IEP prior to completion of all the forms, you can print directly from that form, but it will not have a page number.

 

Message that the meeting cannot be finalized until it is checked ‘Meeting held’.

Check the Meeting Held box to the right of the meeting date and then fill in the Parent Response; Parent Participation and Follow-up information before clicking on Finalize IEP. Note: You cannot check the Meeting Held until after the date of the meeting.  This is a built-in protection so that you will not accidentally finalize a meeting that has not been held.  The dates on the MIS Summary do not change until you check Meeting Held

It is when the ‘Meeting Held’ box is checked and the Parent Participation is 'Accepts the plan' that SIRAS and the MIS Summary page gets updated from the forms.  This “bridge” between the forms and the MIS Summary page will stay in place until the meeting gets “Finalized”. Once Finalized the meeting is locked and the “bridge” cannot be restored.

DO NOT finalize until after the meeting has been held and you have made any necessary changes to the documents because of things you wrote in during the meeting. Once you finalize the meeting you will no longer be able to make changes to the IEP document or have access to the other menus on the interface.

 

Message that the Student has # remaining error(s).

Check the MIS Summary and fix any errors before “Finalizing” the IEP. Go to the MIS Summary (button to the left of the IEP Manager).  Note any fields highlighted in red, and make corrections.  After corrections click on the green check mark at the top left of the page to validate again to be sure there are no additional errors.  Then you can return to the IEP Manager and Finalize the meeting.  This is a rare occurrence and will usually happen only if you leave a field empty often in a Review (30 day) as it is a new record (e.g. leaving a blank on the Statewide Assessment or CAASPP Participation form rather than entering “Not to participate”) or a similar error in CALPADS data such as forgetting to enter the percent of time in regular education.

 

A picture of a cat (or another animal) fixing a computer came up, and I was logged out of the computer.  What happened?

Getting the "Bad Kitty" can mean you have discovered a bug in the program that caused the browser to crash.  It can also be due to user error like you accidentally hit the back button for the browser on your computer or you were impatient and clicked on the same function more than once while SIRAS was still processing your first request.  When you do get the Kitty, log back in and go to the exact same place you were before and attempt the same task.  If the Kitty comes up a second time on the same task, it is most likely a bug.  In this event please email SIRAS Support and provide the step-by-step directions; include in the email the text under the cat picture; also include the Student ID or SSID.
