Those of you who know me already know that I have very little hair left to pull out...I am working on scheduling for next year.  I am having trouble getting the student request screens to display properly.

I have run the setup and copied my registration screens from last year.  When I preview the screen and when I actually log in as a kid, it does not list the courses to choose from.  I click on the 'pencil' icon but the box that comes up does not list any classes. 

I have tried multi-class requirements, I have tried single class, etc.  I have tried different course groups as well.  Even tried firefox and IE to make sure it was not a browser issue.

Has anyone else had this issue? And better yet, how did you fix it?

I have the same issue here as well.  At first I thought it was because I had accidently generated the new scheduling year under this years container (forgot to switch year).  After deleting and recreating, I was still having the problem.  Same issue was happening on my test server.

What it boils down to is that we migrated our data from another Student Information System a few years back.  This migration included Course Numbers which contained spaces.  These spaces are not liked by PowerSchool in its current iteration.  Take a look at PowerSource ID 58045.  They want you to change the course numbers so that they do not contain spaces.  It's not the best solution but it does work.  (At least for me on my test server).  I was hoping this latest release (6.1.0.2.0102) would have a fix for that.  It didn't....  

Bryan,

Thanks.  Unfortunately our course numbers do not contain spaces...I am just about to start surfing PowerSource for other possible causes. 

Did your screens come up with all the correct messages and such, but then just not list courses when you go to the pencil icon?

Thanks

Dustin

Yes, everything else would show fine, just no courses listed when I clicked on the pencil icon.  Are you running an image server?  If so, recopy the scripts folder from PS server to your image server.  If not, keep us posted on your outcome.

Does anyone have good info on how to set up PowerSchool to run the new curriculum report?  When I run the report it comes out blank.  Please help!  Thank you!

I am not sure if I have done something wrong or not, but I was wondering if anyone is seeing the following. When I go in and mark a students race and submit, the check boxes go away and are blank. I go look at the student race table and they are there. Then I go back into the same student and check the boxes again and same thing happen except when I go back tot he Student race table, there are duplicate records for the same student.

Has anyone seen this at all? I wonder what I am doing wrong.

The check boxes stay checked for us.  Sorry???

I have seen this at several schools and it is a known issue. There is a PS KB article, 58608 that describes a workaround. Since most of the schools are just getting started with this and they didn't have much entered, we just deleted all the records in the Teacher/Student race tables instead of doing the workaround. The one thing I forgot to do once, was to quit PowerSchool and restart. I kept deleting the records in the Race table, but it still didn't work, then I finally realized I didn't restart PS.

To delete the records:
Navigate to DDA
Select the StudentRace or TeacherRace table
Select all records
Click on the Modify Records
Verify you have the correct table!!!!!
Check the delete box and then click the delete button
Quit PS and  then restart PS.




Deleting the records and restarting the server did appear to work. Now the check boxes stay and things are updated in the StudentRace table. Thanks Wayne.

Does anyone have a way to add immunizations to the transcript? I've got the health screens up, and am getting them running, but would like to have this on my transcripts.  Any suggestions??

Hello Everyone,

What are the start dates and end dates we are to use, for student and student enrollment?

Thanks

Since school enrollment uploads only new information, use the day after your last submission and then today's date.  The report will be short and only show in and out since your last submission. 

Remember this one has no headers

Good Luck

    I have tried to upload my student filr to NDE and keep getting an error that the submission (student) is not available in the current selection.  The only thing it will let me select is National Assessment.  I thought  Students could be uploaded any time.  Don't I have to upload student before student enrollment?  I have to do this by Feb 1 for the NeSA  labels?

Pearson released the beta version of the Curriculum Report last Tuesday, 1/12, to the beta testing group. This small number of users have until next Tuesday to report their findings to Pearson. So it will be awhile before the report is ready to go.

At this point, it seems the general consensus of what is best for most schools THIS YEAR is to use the file you can download from NDE. This downloaded file will contain the information that was on the report last year, plus it will have added new staff and removed staff that have left. With this file, you will have to massage the data by reflecting any changes in this year's schedule. You will also have to add the minutes taught.

Here is a link to a very good memo on the download curriculum file from NDE:  On-Line Curriculum Reporting Memo.doc    
Here is NDE's site for this report: NDE Curriculum Report

To use the PS Curriculum Report, besides loading the files, there is quite a bit of other work involved. The main task is entering all the state's course ids into PS's alternate course number field. We still want to move forward with this report at this time so we can get the bugs worked out and the state course numbers entered into PS.

Anyone who has more information or a differing view, please add your thoughts!
