Entering English Learner and Immigrant Information
Understand the Synching of ELA Records Between Tables
To ensure all ELA records are kept in sync between the S_CA_STU_ELA_C table and the S_CA_STU_X table, the application checks for changes to S_CA_STU_ELA_C table, including changes from an import, at intervals of 120 seconds and then updates the S_CA_STU_X table accordingly.
Only 1000 records are updated per interval; therefore, when running a large import, several minutes will pass before all table values are updated.
