ALL DISTRICTS - PROMOTION AND VALIDATION FOR SUMMER PEIMS
TCC (ASCENDER Programming) and TEA are requesting that all districts who have NOT YET promoted and validated for Summer PEIMS or have NOT promoted in the last 5 business days to do so as soon as possible. It is critical for them to know how the ASCENDER and TSDS SOFTWARE updates have affected all districts. This helps with determining if and when further investigation and programming solutions need to be looked at for various issues. Summer PEIMS is due June 20th.
ISSUE:
ASCENDER Programming has discovered that some attendance errors are being triggered due to orphan records in BasicReportingPeriodAttendance, SpecialEducationProgramReportingPeriodAttendance, SpecialProgramsReportingPeriodAttendance and CTEProgramReportingPeriodAttendance.
It is believed the cause of these orphans is due to issues with sending data earlier in the year, and the root cause of these orphans has since been fixed.
Fatal Errors impacted:
- 42400-0012
- 42400-0017
- 42400-0036
- 42401-0035
- 42405-0012
- 42410-0001
- and potentially other 42400, 42401, 42405, 42410 errors
A fix was applied on 5/30/25 at 12pm for all Region 16 ASCENDER districts to trigger the orphan delete tool to run for these entities. The tool will run on the next full Extract and Send.
ACTION REQUIRED by Districts: If you are experiencing the stated validation errors, verify the errors reduce after the next Extract & Send, Promote & Validate.
