PSSR-277178	All States/Provinces: Immunization Rule Engine Moved to the SR Installer	Additional References: PSSR-289565, PSSR-294101 As part of PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0, the Immunization Rules Engine (that calculates student immunization compliance) has been moved from the core PowerSchool SIS application to PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Reporting. This allows PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Compliance teams to take advantage of the newer functionality in the Immunization Rules Engine that has been added over the last few years without requiring districts to be on a specific, minimum version of PowerSchool SIS. Districts must be on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 to benefit from this. Districts NOT on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0, the rules work as before. Additional Changes: To go along with the new Immunization functionality surrounding CVX codes, the Immunization Rules Engine has been updated and can now calculate immunization compliance by looking for specific CVX codes. This allows more accurate compliance assessments for combo vaccines. To take advantage of this functionality, districts must be on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 and the immunization compliance rules must be updated by Compliance. Due to new functionality built into PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 that allows multiple CVX codes to be tied to a vaccine, the old CVX Code field available on the Edit Vaccine page has been renamed to Legacy CVX Code.

Summary

Release Note

PSSR-277178

All States/Provinces: Immunization Rule Engine Moved to the SR Installer

Additional References: PSSR-289565, PSSR-294101

As part of PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0, the Immunization Rules Engine (that calculates student immunization compliance) has been moved from the core PowerSchool SIS application to PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Reporting.

This allows PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Compliance teams to take advantage of the newer functionality in the Immunization Rules Engine that has been added over the last few years without requiring districts to be on a specific, minimum version of PowerSchool SIS.

Districts must be on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 to benefit from this.

Districts NOT on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0, the rules work as before.

Additional Changes:

To go along with the new Immunization functionality surrounding CVX codes, the Immunization Rules Engine has been updated and can now calculate immunization compliance by looking for specific CVX codes. This allows more accurate compliance assessments for combo vaccines.

To take advantage of this functionality, districts must be on PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 and the immunization compliance rules must be updated by Compliance.

Due to new functionality built into PowerSchool SIS 22.6.0.0 that allows multiple CVX codes to be tied to a vaccine, the old CVX Code field available on the Edit Vaccine page has been renamed to Legacy CVX Code.

Since districts apply updates on their schedule, the table below outlines how compliance is handled and what Immunization Rules Engine is used:

PowerSchool SIS	PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Reporting	Rules Engine/Compliance Behavior
< 22.6.0.0	22.6.3.0 or later	In this scenario, both the PowerSchool SIS and the PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Reporting have the Immunization Rules Engine. The Core Rules Engine is used to assess immunization compliance in this case.
< 22.6.0.0	< 22.6.3.0	In this scenario, the Immunization Rules Engine exists only in the core PowerSchool SIS and is, therefore, used to assess immunization compliance.
22.6.0.0	22.6.2.1 or later *	In this scenario, the Immunization Rules Engine exists only in the PowerSchool SIS State/Provincial Reporting package and is, therefore, used to assess immunization compliance.
