Service ID Verification Report
On this page:
Introduction
Service ID Verification Report helps you to audit and flag PowerSchool records with obsolete or invalid Service IDs per the TEA C022 Service ID Code Table.
School Year Selection: The current year and prior year are available. Choose the current school year to verify records for PEIMS and TSDS reporting this year.
The report is output to a CSV file, which can be opened and filtered in Excel.
The report compares the values in the PowerSchool Alternate Course Number fields to the valid entries in the TEA C022 Service ID table for the selected year.
Selection Criteria
For Local Service ID's beginning in "8", only the first five characters of the Service ID are considered; local courses can have any value for the last three characters.
Courses are excluded from consideration when the Exclude from PEIMS/TSDS flag is "Yes" in Courses.
Sections are excluded from consideration when Exclude from PEIMS/TSDS flag is "Yes" in Sections.
Stored Grades records are excluded when the Exclude from PEIMS/TSDS flag is "Yes" in Historical Grades.
Error Reporting
Four types of validations are included in the Error Type column of the file:
Course Assigned - No Sections: These are records with invalid or obsolete Service IDs in Courses where the course is assigned to one or more schools in the selected year, but no scheduled sections or stored grades for these courses exist at this point. Update the Alternate Course Number in Courses to correct these records.
Course Assigned - Sections Exist: These are records with invalid or obsolete Service IDs in Courses where Sections have been scheduled at one or more schools. Update the Alternate Course Number in Courses to correct these records.
Invalid Override in Section: These are records where a user has entered an invalid Service ID in the Alternate Course Number override in the section record. Update the Alternate Course Number in Sections to correct these records.
Invalid Override in Stored Grades: These are records where a user entered an invalid Service ID in the Alternate Course Number override in Stored Grades. Update the Alternate Course Number in Stored Grades to correct these records.
