Monitoring Import Results

It is important to monitor the results of all imports. Spot check the student count on the Student Records page (Community > Student Records) to further ensure the accuracy of your SIS data. A quick way to identify possible duplicates is to sort the list of students by name.

Key Points

    Inaccurate student data can cause inaccurate reporting and delays throughout the FOH operations.

    SIS data should be imported on a regular basis to keep the software updated with current student data.

    Certain student information may be maintained directly in the software if it is not included in a regular import.

    Selecting an integration map applies all settings that are configured for that integration map for consistent, repeatable results.

    Certain fields may be translated during import to accommodate variations in your SIS data.

    Student ID is typically used as the unique, static criteria for matching SIS records to existing student data in the software.

    Separate fields are used for Student ID and PIN Assignment, even when the Student ID is used as the PIN.

    Duplicate records result when a student is imported under two or more Student IDs.

    It is important to monitor the results of all imports into the software.
