Action	Trigger
Post	A Calendars record will be created for each Calendar/Schedule Structure combination. When a new Calendar and Schedule Structure is created and saved via the Calendar Wizard. When a new Schedule Structure in an existing Calendar is created and saved. Do not send a record if the Calendars resource is toggled 'OFF' in the Calendars Resource Preferences. When the Secondary School field is populated, report the student's information from this new school as an override to the current school.
Put	When fields that are not part of the natural key are changed. Type - if the type is changed on the Calendar tab. Grade Levels - when a grade level is deleted from the Grade Levels tab it will be removed from the array. Grade Levels - when a grade level is added to the Grade Levels tab and a mapping exists already for that grade level. When Grade Level on Calendar Day Event is changed or added. When Start of calendar or end of calendar codes are used on Calendar Day Event.
Delete	If a calendar and/or schedule structure is deleted.

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.

Action	Trigger
None	No data will send if the School or Calendar is marked as Exclude.
Delete	If 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'.
None	If a resource is toggled to 'OFF' after data has sent, all sent data will remain in the ODS but no new data will send.
Resync	If 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.
Resync	If 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.
Resync	If a mapping is changed in Resource Preferences, a resync will need to be done to reflect the changes.

Natural Key Changes, Cascading Updates, and Deletes Logic

This table describes the Natural Key Changes/Cascading Updates and Deletes logic of this object.

Action	Trigger
Post/Delete	Natural Key change: If a 2nd schedule structure is added after data is sent, the first Calendar record will need to be Deleted/Posted with new Calendar Code logic to be Calendar ID + Schedule Structure ID. If a calendar or schedule structure is moved via script, all data send to the ODS will remain and the Delete tool will need to be used to remove all data sent. If the School ID changes, all data will remain under the old number and a resync will need to be completed to populate data under the new number. The delete tool would need to be used to remove all data from the old School ID.
