Aeries can be used to schedule regular imports of Special Education Student Data and Student Services Data into the Aeries database. These files are typically obtained from a third-party Special Education System vendor. This will update or create Special Education data in Aeries.
See THIS PAGE for Aeries documentation.
This page defines where the Special Education Student and Services files will be stored, the name of the files, and the scheduled day(s) and time for the import to run.
There is also a button to import the files immediately. Once all selections have been made, click on the SAVE button.
