State Edition to DIS-linked District Editions
When data is published from the State Edition to DIS-linked District Editions, logic compares data from the State Edition versus the District Edition. Note the following:
- Users must have statewide access to publish student records.
- There must be at least one state-owned record for the student in order for the Publish State Migrant Records icon to display.
- Only state-owned records can be published.
- For State-linked customers, the Owner column on both the State and District editions displays the district name if the record is a district owned record and 'State' if it is a state owned record. The Filter dropdown allows users to view all records, only state owned records, or only district owned records.
District Editions to State Edition
When data is published from the State Edition to DIS-linked District Editions, logic compares data from the State Edition versus the District Edition:
- Only State owned data is published down to districts.
- When the MIgrant record being published does not exist at the district, the Migrant record is created at the district.
- When the Migrant record being published exists at the district, data changes made at the State level are updated on the district record.
- When the Migrant record being published exists at the district but no changes exist between the state and district record(s), no update is made.
- When the Migrant record being published exists at the district but the record was deleted in the State Edition, the record is deleted at the district.
