Column A in the District Enrollment Report file layout has been updated from "Data Collection" to "Free Reduced Eligible".

EMIS Submission File [Student Program (GQ), Student Standing (FS), Student Attribute Date (FD)]

Corrected the following in the EMIS CSV file extract formatting:

  • Student Attribute Date (FD)

    • Removed the unnecessary filler from Column K.

  • Student Program (GQ)

    • In Column G (Employee ID), when no value was provided, the system was adding 10 blank spaces.

    • This was being treated as an invalid value by the EMIS Data Collector.

    • This has been fixed, and the field will be left null instead of blank spaces.

  • Student Standing (FS)

    • The Attendance Hours and Excused/Unexcused Hours formatting have been corrected:

      • Missing leading zeros are now properly added.

      • Extra trailing zeros have been removed.

    • The values will follow the correct format as expected by EMIS.
