10/1/2025 Update

 

SIRAS has completed batch editing most recent archives for the HS districts.

 

The next time you send data those archives should resolve the majority of those errors!!

You are welcome!!

BTW, if they are not all resolved on the error report the day after you send the data, let me know so we can review.

 

 

 

NOTE: If your district has more than 15 or 20 students with errors, SIRAS is already working on setting those most recent plans to be re-sent to CALPADS by tomorrow.

That should resolve those errors. Look to sending data again by 10/2/2025 to remove most of those errors.

 

 

If you only have a couple of them!

Then you can just find the SSID, then tell SIRAS to resend your most recent archive by changing the report status of the most recent archive from Complete to 'PLAN Only'

If you have a bunch, don't bother, just email [email protected]

 

CONTEXT

 

As of Fall 1 2025, HS students who are 15 now but will be 16 by 6/30/2026 have PLAN0390 - PLAN0397 errors.

These errors are because staff won't be completing the post secondary transition survey questions until later this year.

In the meantime those records where the most recent plan in CALPADS has no information, for reasons beyond us, CALPADS has decided to make those records have errors simply because the most recent plan information in CALPADS is blank.

 

This is forcing SEDS staff across the state to manually fill in the TRAN_REG 1-8 fields in CALPADS with something other than blank, like N since the survey has not been done yet.

 

In response to this SIRAS has implemented a mechanism where when a record represents a student who is 14 or 15 and the transition survey questions are still 'blank' because they have not been turned in, SIRAS will no longer report blank information but will report N to satisfy the CALPADS error validation of not allowing blank information.

 

What do we do about any errors that are left over in CALPADS now?

 

For each student SSID that has a the PLAN0390-PLAN0397 error in CALPADS now, staff can open the most recent archived transaction in SIRAS.

Set the report status to "PLAN Only", click validate and save.

Then send more data. (see screenshot below of 'most recent archived transaction')

That is is, just re-send the most recent plan, it will be compliant and remove the error from CALPADS.

 

Keep in mind the HS staff will still need to do the post secondary surveys in the annual this year.

When they do, then the filler data of N instead of <blank> will no longer be relevant once the new updated plan is in place for EOY4 2026.
