Object Triggering Logic

This table describes logic for triggering syncing of this object.

Action	Trigger
Post	When an IEP is created and locked. IEP must overlap the enrollment. Report a record based on the student's enrollment type: State Enrollment Type = P: Primary Enrollment Service Type = P: Primary Enrollment Service Type = N: Special Ed If Ed-Fi Configuration Profile = Choice OR Choice + Private Opt In, do not send a record. Do not send a student record for an enrollment that is marked as State Exclude, No Show, or WISE Exclude. If a higher ordered enrollment is excluded, report from the next in order of Service Type. Do not send a record if enrollment is in a calendar marked as State Exclude or Summer School or if the calendar is in a School marked Exclude. Do not send a record if the Special Ed Status = No in the IEP. Post a record for each unique, locked IEP with all data fields reporting from the same IEP. Do not send a record if the student is under 3 years old until their 3rd birth date has passed. Do not send additional records after the SSEPA ended by a SPED Exit Date. The Sped Exit Date must be within the IEP start and End dates to suppress further records driven around that IEP.
Post	Post a new record when a new enrollment record is created based on the following: When an IEP overlaps multiple school years, a new SSEPA record should be created in the 2nd year with the Begin Date being the enrollment start date. When the enrollment sending the record is ended and a new enrollment is added and the same IEP is being used, the student will get a new record with the begin date being the enrollment start date. When Multiple IEPs overlap school years, only 1 record is reported with a unique set of primary keys and all fields are populated from the most recent IEP by start date.
Post	Update the wiDpiFapeResponsibleSchoolReference if FAPE Responsible field on the enrollment associated with the SSEPA is changed and saved.
Post/Delete	When an IEP or Enrollment start date are changed that resulted in the posting of a new record.
Put	Send an end date when the student receives a SPED exit date on enrollment.
Post/Put	A new SSEPA record is submitted when a new Special Education Setting record is created within the dates of the locked IEP. The existing record is updated with a new endDate.
Post/Delete	When an IEP is edited and re-locked with a change to any of the fields not part of the natural key.
Post/Delete	When a School Override is set on Enrollment.
Delete	When an IEP is edited and re-locked where Special Ed status is set to No.
Delete	When an enrollment is deleted that triggered a SSEPA record or the enrollment is marked State Exclude, No Show, or WISE Exclude.
Delete	If the IEP Start or End Dates OR the Enrollment Start or End Dates have been updated so the IEP and Enrollment no longer overlap, delete the record if one was created.
Delete	When an enrollment service type is changed to Partial (S) for an enrollment previously triggering a record. When a student has two enrollments in the same school for the same start date, record changes with lower priority will not trigger a delete.

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	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 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 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 changes: If the IEP Start Date changes the resource will delete/repost.
Delete	Cascading Deletes: N/A there are no dependent resources

Scope Year Logic

This table describes scope year logic of this object.

Business Rules
The record will send to any year the IEP or State Reporting record overlaps with.
Data will only send for the years that have valid configuration
