PEIMS OnSite Training- Summer

1.Training Overview #

This training will cover the review of Summer PEIMS data before submitting it to TEA. It will include:

  • TSDS Edits
  • TEA desk audits for Summer Attendance
  • Multi year comparison
  • Drilling down into details to find/resolve data quality issues
  • Accountability- CCMR, PBMAS, DVM

2.File Center #

2.1.Data Sources #

Before using OnPoint to review the PEIMS data, the  PEIMS interchange files must be uploaded into the file center.

These TSDS Summer PEIMS interchange files will originate from the SIS.

  • Upon extraction/building with the Student Information Software, save the Summer files in a folder.
  • Log into OnDataSuite using Chrome as the browser.

Uploading PEIMS TSDS Interchange files

  • Go to the ‘File Center’ link located at the top of the screen in the black menu bar.
  •  Click on the ‘Data Sources’ link located in the black sub-menu bar.
  • Select the PEIMS – TSDS blue button
  • Use the green “Click to upload PEIMS- TSDS files” tab to browse to the  TSDS PEIMS interchange files created by the SIS

NOTE: User must have access to load files in order to see the tab

  • Select ALL interchange files to be loaded at once – the order does NOT matter.

NOTE: Subsequent file uploads will completely wipe and replace all files currently loaded for this submission/year. (Functions like EDIT+)

  • To Continue with file load:
    • Make sure each interchange file is “labeled” correctly.

Example:

  • Year: 2018-19
  • Submission: Summer
  • Preliminary: If this is NOT the final file going to TEA, check the box. (If left blank it will default to “Final”.  A “Final” file may also be overwritten . Example: Re-submission.)
  • Reporting Period:Select the six week period to denote how many six weeks worth of data the file(s) include.

 

  • Review Only – No need to select, unless the files need to go to the programmers and NOT load into the database

 

  • Use the ” Start Upload” tab to add files to your database. “Cancel Upload” will remove the files.

When the file upload process is complete, the system will automatically combine all interchange files into 1 Summer PEIMS file and parse the various elements to the appropriate tables.

 

Review Uploaded File(s)

Scroll toward the bottom of the screen to view a list of all the files that have been uploaded by Submission and date. The file status will show  final or preliminary according to the selection made when loading the file. The administrator that uploaded the file is also listed.

Locate the information ‘i’ icon located to the right of each field name.

  • This screen shows the interchange files that have and have not been loaded.
    • “Not Found” – interchange file was not included in data load
    • “Dependency error” – part of the data for the interchange file is missing
  • User may rename the file using the “Edit File Name” tab at the top right
  • User may  change the status of “Final/Preliminary”, as well as the number of 6 weeks included in the file using the “Click to change file status tab” at the bottom left.

2.2.PEIMS Edits #

  • Click on Fatals, Warning, or Special Warning Counts to display the list of Business Rules/Edits.

3.Dashboards #

SUMMER DASHBOARDS 

  • Available at District and/or Campus levels.
  • Information Year – Multi Year drop to review/compare prior years.
  • Use  links to drill down to the set of students creating the number of days for each area.

 

  • Cumulative Information – Count of students who have at least 1 day of attendance.

 

  • Days of Membership – Provides a count of days, not a count of students.

(Campus Level example)

 

  • Membership by Special Populations- affect additional funding sources.
