Teacher AccessLearning Locations

On the Attendance List page, teachers can select to show or hide students with learning locations that are tied to In School, Virtual/Synchronous, and Virtual/Asynchronous in the calendar.

As this page does not currently provide the ability to change the sort order for students, the ability to sort by learning locations that was added to the Gradebook and Class Roster pages is not available on this page.


Enhancements

Feature Title

Feature Description

Learn More
eSchoolPlusSimple Search

Enhanced the simple search to support the sounds like search on student name fields. The user can select if they want to use a Sounds Like search for a student name field.

Student Search Procedures

eSchoolPlus Advanced Search

Added the ability to search for students with a name that sounds like the entered value on the Advanced Search page by selecting the Sounds Like operator for First, Middle, and Last name fields.

The Advanced Search will use the Sounds Like search for any selected field.

Search Conditions
eSchoolPlus Office/Teacher Attendance Verification

Previously, when the Include Records with No Teacher Entry checkbox was selected, the results did not include student attendance records where the teacher had removed entered attendance. Now the results include student records meeting the scenario described below.

The building is configured so that the Teacher Access Attendance Entry P checkbox does not add a default code; in this case, selecting the P checkbox removes any existing attendance record resulting in the student having an audit record for a teacher entry, but no current teacher entry.


eSchoolPlus Quick Search

Added ability for the user to set preferences to determine if the Quick Search will filter based on the user's default building and their selected current status codes when searching by student name. The settings are defined on the Preferences page.

Updated Quick Search functionality to return matching students with any status irrespective of whether an entry/withdrawal record exists in the environment when searching by ID in the Quick Search field.

Description

ESP-30552Attendance Criteria Calculation

If a student had no absences for the time frame specified in the Attendance Criteria Calculation, the student was excluded from the calculation. This could result in the student receiving multiple attendance letters for the same criteria.

ESP-45160Dental / Vision / Growth / Other Exams

If you apply multiple referrals to an exam, the referrals are added to MED_REFFERAL with a sequence number as part of the key. When deleting a referral where multiple exist, the sequencing was not updating correctly and caused subsequent updates or deletes to error. This has been resolved.

ESP-44321EO Admin

When using the EO CFP and trying to create a new application form in EO_Admin when there were no other published forms, the software would error upon initial save (but work fine after initial save). This has been resolved.

ESP-28216HAC - Classwork

HAC Classwork header average was not showing if the mark type was set to type IPR. This has been resolved.

ESP-43367Immunizations

On the Immunizations page, some vaccinations that were marked as inactive were still appearing in the drop-down to select. This has been resolved.

ESP-41929Master Schedule List Report

The total used seats in the Master Schedule List report were showing as higher than expected when there were multiple sessions of a course. This has been resolved.

ESP-44503Other Exams

Saving a referral from the Other Exam page always saved the referral with a test type of "SPI_OTHER" instead of the test type entered on the page. This has been resolved.

ESP-44597Physical Exam

An error message was occurring when a user tried to set up a physical exam on a date prior to a student's entry date. This has been resolved.

ESP-40066Programs

If the user tried to delete a program record that was linked to another field, they would receive an error when adding a new record because deleting the program record did not delete the linked data. This has been resolved.

ESP-45823ProgramsResolved an issue where deleting a program record with a link type of L (not-absolute) would only delete linked vector with a matching date range, not all vectors that fall within the range.
ESP-44893Script Runner

Script Runner would fail to log an appropriate error if it failed to connect to a database while processing scripts. This has been resolved.

ESP-45314Substitute Attendance Sheets

The learning location was not displaying on the Substitute Attendance Sheets when a student had an open summer school entry/withdrawal record. This has been resolved.

An error was occurring when printing report cards in TAC for an inactive student. Modified so the list of students available to print only includes active students.
