Ed-Fi: Updated Logic for Publishing Staff Records

A new field has been added at the District to indicate whether staff members with a Staff Type of 2 should be published in Ed-Fi:

District > District Info page > ‘State Information’

• New field: Publish Staff Type 2 (Staff) checkbox

  • Default value: checkbox is not selected

• If Publish Staff Type 2 (Staff) checkbox is not selected, records for staff members set to a Staff Type of 2 (Staff) are not published in Ed-Fi.

• If Publish Staff Type 2 (Staff) checkbox is selected and submitted, records for staff members set to a Staff Type of 2 (Staff) are published in Ed-Fi.

Updated Publishing Logic for Staff Assignments

Staff selection criteria:

• Staff Member is active at some point during the reporting school year

• Staff Member has a State Staff ID populated in PowerSchool

• Staff Member is not marked to be excluded from Ed-Fi

For staff meeting the criteria listed above, staff assignment records are generated based on the following checks:

1. Find any active Staff Assignment record that exists for the staff member and publish it as entered.

2. If no Staff Assignment record exists, generate records based on Schools and Roles assigned at the Staff Setup level.

3. If no schools or roles are assigned, check for active sections where the staff member is assigned as a Teacher and generate a Teacher record for each school, as appropriate.

4. If none of the above apply, check the Staff Type and publish based on the following:

   • If Staff Type = Teacher (1) - generate a ‘Teacher’ record

   • If Staff Type = Staff (2)

     • If the district preference for staff type 2 is enabled, generate a ‘Support Service Staff’ record

     • If the district preference for staff type 2 is not enabled, no record should be generated

   • If Staff Type = “Lunch Staff (3)” no record should be generated

   • If Staff Type = “Substitute Teacher(4)” - publish a ’Substitute teacher’ record

   • If the Staff Type is blank - no record should be generated
