Reenroll in SAIS Needs

Use this function at the beginning of the school year to reenroll students in SAIS Needs. This function selects students who completed the previous school year in the Need (Need exit date equals the day after the last day of the previous year term). The new SAIS Need enrollments are created with an entry date equal to the student’s current school enrollment.

For example, when the SAIS End-of-Year process is completed for the 2011-2012 school year, all SAIS Needs records are exited with the day after the last day of school, such as 6/15/2012. At the beginning of the 2012-2013 school year, use this function to re-create the same SAIS Needs records for the new school year. The records are created with an entry date that equals the student’s current school enrollment, such as 9/1/2012.

Note: This process can be performed for an individual student, a group of students, or all students who have a SAIS Needs record where the exit date is the day after the last day of the previous year term.
