PSSR-239875 | WA Incident Management - Suspension/Expulsion Fields moved to Action Attributes | In order to make Washington's incident management functionality fully compatible with PowerSchool 20.4, the eight incident action data fields that are unique to suspensions and expulsions are being migrated to action attributes. This update applies to all core versions of PowerSchool. The new incident action attributes are seeded such that they are sorted in the same order in which they appeared previously. Users are free to change the sort order via District Setup; however, in order for the group to appear properly segregated by blue header rows when editing an action, it is assumed that Academic Services will remain the first of the eight, and Appeal Code will remain the last. To ensure that all data regarding incident actions comes from one consistent source going forward, existing data in the S_WA_IAC_X table gets migrated into Incident_Action_Attribute and Incident_Detail records. Note that text fields with null values in S_WA_IAC_X still get migrated, with the associated (newly seeded) subcodes having state_detail_report_code of '0'; this allows the descriptive messages from the old dropdowns to be preserved. Audit fields (created_by, created_ts, etc.) retain their comparable values from S_WA_IAC_X.; however, user names are converted to [SchoolStaff]ID values when possible for consistency with records entered through the User Interface. |
