Searching in Infinite Campus

Before Creating New Records

State Reporting

Data is not reporting correctly to the State of Georgia causing multiple errors during FTE and Student Class reporting.

Lunch IDs

Lunch statuses are established and reported at the beginning of the school fiscal year using the student data on file. As data is updating, duplicating students could overwrite that data and cause a student’s status to change from free to paid.

Student Network Access

Student IDs are automatically generated from a combination of the name and student number. Duplicating a student can cause the student ID they've used previously to change. This creates login issues in their instructional applications.

Special Education Reporting

Data for special education students is uploaded to IEP online, using the student number and GTID. Duplication of a student could cause student record issues, funding issues, and unnecessary research to correct.

Parent Portal

Duplications can cause parents not to see all or any of their students in the parent portal. Also, parents could have more than one account to see all of their students if they've also been duplicated and in multiple households.

Instructional Applications

Data for the student’s applications is sent during nightly processes to applications used for learning. Creating duplicates can suddenly affect a student’s ability to login without explanation.
