Object Triggering Logic

This table describes logic for triggering syncing of this object.

ActionTrigger
Post

When a new Calendar is created.

  • Do not send a record if the Calendar Exclude checkbox is checked.
  • Do not send a record if the School Exclude checkbox is checked.

When a new Schedule Structure in an existing Calendar is created and saved.

Put

When calendar data are changed or updated:

  • When the Start Date is changed.
  • When the End Date is changed.
  • When the Calendar Name is changed.
DeleteWhen a calendar and/or schedule structure is deleted.
  • Delete if a 2nd Schedule Structure is added after 1st Calendar is sent.

Days report by school not calendar in Ed-Fi, so when working with multiple calendars / schedule structures it is possible a day could report even if it is not connected to the calendar in which you are working.


School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync Logic

This table describes the School Exclude, Calendar Exclude, Resource Toggle and Resync logic of this object.

ActionTrigger
NoneNo data will send if the School or Calendar is marked as Exclude.
DeleteIf the Calendar is marked as exclude after the Calendar or any dependent data is sent, the calendar and all dependent data will delete upon a resync even if the resource is toggled 'OFF'.
NoneIf a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data will remain in the ODS but no new data will send.
ResyncIf a Calendar record is in the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table and not in the ODS, it will be deleted from the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table.
ResyncIf a Calendar record is in the ODS and it does not have a matching record in Campus or the Ed-Fi Identity Mapping table, it will be deleted from the ODS.
ResyncIf a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync will need to be done to reflect the changes.

Scope Year Logic

This table describes scope year logic of this object.

Logic

Calendars will only send for the school year to which they are aligned.

  • Data will only send for years that have valid configuration.
  • Future Years data will be suppressed until the Active Year is changed:

    This allows the Schedule Wizard to be used and reducing the number of records sent until the final schedule is completed.

    A resync must be done after the Active Year is changed to send data.
