Generate RC Data Warehouse Page

On this page:

Use this page to generate the data warehouse that stores the mark reporting information that is printed on report cards and displayed in Home Access Center. You must generate the data warehouse before you can print report cards.

The Print Report Cards page includes an option to generate the data warehouse when you print the report cards. However, you may want to generate the data separately if mark reporting data warehouse information is used in the reports created by your district.

The Mark Reporting data warehouse stores the report card data based on the report card view setups defined as a view for Report Card Type. If there is a report card view for the student's grade, the view for that grade is used. Otherwise, the default view is used.

Prerequisites

1. If you will be including class attendance on the report cards, verify that attendance is correct using the Attendance Error Scan. Use Attendance options to make any necessary corrections, and then run the Transfer Class Attendance to RC option.
2. If you want the report card to include credit earned for the report card run, run the Course Credit Calculation option.
3. If you print honor roll messages or want to print a GPA in the Current GPA field of the GPA and Credit block of the report card, run the Honor Roll Calculation option for the appropriate honor rolls.
4. If you want the value for the Semester GPA in the GPA and Credit block of the report card to reflect the student's current GPA for the GPA type, run the GPA Calculation.
5. If you want the value for the Cumulative GPA in the GPA and Credit block of the report card to reflect the student's current cumulative GPA for the GPA type, run the Rank Calculation option. If your district only runs the rank calculation at designated times of the year, make sure that it is appropriate for you to run the calculation before proceeding.
6. If you want to hold report cards for a student, follow the Holding a Student's Report Card procedure.

Fields

Prompts Panel

Field	Description
Building	Select the building for generating the data warehouse.
Report Card Run	Select the report card run for generating the data warehouse.
Process Courses Without Marks	Determines whether courses that do not have marks, comments, or absences entered should display in the report card. Select: Y - Include all courses - to display all courses for which the student has report card records regardless of whether the courses have received a mark, comment, or absence for the report card run. C - Include only courses that have started - to display courses for which the student has report card records for the report card run you are processing or for an earlier report card run regardless of whether the courses have received a mark, comment, or absences selected to print for the report card run. N - No - to display only courses in which the student received at least one mark, comment, or absence that was selected to print for the report card run. This setting does not affect the student competencies that print. If the report card view you are printing includes student competencies, a competency will print if there is a mark issued for any of the mark types selected on the selected Report Card View Setup.
Demographics As Of Date	Date to use to select students who were enrolled in the building and to select the values for demographic information that is stored by date. The data warehouse will only include students who were enrolled in the building on the Demographics As Of Date. For demographic fields that are stored by date, the data warehouse will store the student's value that was active on the specified Demographics As Of Date.
Earliest Withdrawal Date for Inactive Students	The earliest withdrawal date for the inactive students that you want to print. Students who withdrew prior to this date will not be included in the process.
Cumulative Credit Building Types	Select the building type(s) for which you want to include credit when calculating the cumulative earned credit that prints on the report card. For example, if only credit for courses with a building type of High School should be included in the cumulative earned credit, select High School. Select codes from the field's drop-down list, or click (asterisk) to select all codes, then remove any that do not apply. If you want to include credit for all courses that a student earned credit for, leave this field blank.
