There is a new version of the Student Transcript available when defined from the Transcript Definitions page. The page header of this new report optionally includes additional information not available on the traditional transcript such as: County District School Code (County District Campus in Texas), College Board School Code (College Entrance Exam Board in Texas), State Seal (Texas only), Student Gender, Student Race and Ethnicity,and Student Social Security Number. It is highly recommended that Social Security Number NOT be enabled on the Transcript, but it is a requirement in Texas. The new report will print one line per transcript record, instead of 3 columns, allowing more information to print within each record. The information that can print within each record is: Department, Subject Area Code, Course ID, Course Title, State Course ID (Service ID in Texas), Mark, Credit Attempted, Credit Completed (State Credit and Local Credit in Texas), and Course Tag(s). Each section is grouped by Year, School, Grade, and Term, but can optionally be grouped by School and Department. There is also a user-defined footer that can be defined to print just above the signature line on the last page for each student. This new report is also designed to fit in a double-window envelope. Texas State Seal will print for students with an appropriate Grad Status code, if the option has been enabled. This is an option as some districts may choose to affix a pressure-seal instead.
The Transcript Definitions page now includes a new setting for Transcript Style with options for Standard (3-Column) and Expanded (1-Column). When changing between the two, other options will show and hide based on functionality of each style. New options include: Show Department, Group on Department, Hide Credits Attempted, Print College Board School Code, Print Student Gender, Print Student Race/Ethnicity, Print Social Security Number, and a User Defined Footer. For Texas districts the Print State ID Number option has been renamed to Print Unique ID Number for consistency, and there is a new option to Print State Seals when selecting the new style of transcript. The new style of transcript will also expand the options available in the Name Under Transcript Title dropdown to include: School and District Name, and Reporting Home School and District. For Texas districts, the phrase "School of Accountability" is used instead of "Reporting Home School". Please note that the new option to Print Student Gender is turned off by default and will affect existing transcript definitions.
The Print button on the Transcripts page will print the new transcript style if defined in the Transcript Definition Code selected to print.
District Student Lookup
The Print Transcript option will use the new transcript style if defined in the Default Transcript Definition Code.
Parent Portal - Student Document Requests
A new page has been added for Parents to upload documents requested by the District either during the Data Confirmation process or through the new Student Document Requests page.
Documents uploaded by parents will be displayed in a pending status with an approval button for staff members to check once parent documents have been reviewed.
This is a new configuration page to request documents from parents. Parents can upload requested documents during a specified window of time via the Student Document Requests page or as part of the data confirmation process.
The New Year Rollover will now clear out Section when copying the Digital Store Item as it is year-based (DIT.SE = 0). Added logic to set Ed-Fi Organization (EFO) fields as follows: Read Only (RO) to True, Enable Scheduled Sync (ENS) and Enable Real Time Sync (ENR) to False. Removed the following Ed-Fi tables from the rollover as they are unnecessary to roll forward: Ed-Fi Results (EFR), Ed-Fi Entities (EFE), and Ed-Fi Data (EFD).
Attendance Code Colors
On the Update Absence Codes page there is now a color code option for absence codes. Each attendance code's color can be selected from this page and will optionally display on the Student Attendance page for office staff and teachers. Colors will not display for students and parents in the portal.

Portal Options
New options have been added for Teacher Attendance.

The "Lock Teacher Attendance for a class after the teacher clicks the 'All Remaining Students Are Present' button" goes along with the first option and when enabled, will lock a teacher out of changing any attendance information on that class after the button is pressed. And lastly, there is now an option to customize the text of the Attendance Complete button.
Teacher Attendance and Attendance by Photo
Support has been added for the new Portal Options to require the Mark All Remaining Students Present button and to lock a teacher out of adjusting attendance after they click that button. Support has also been added for the custom text of that button.

The SIRS and SOFF extracts had the potential to not extract a disposition or offense if two separate incidents happened on the same day and both had the same disposition or offense code, fixed. Also, in the SIRS extract, the number of days reported when a student is expelled will be set to zero if the disciplinary action modification is "Enforcement Suspended"
The STAS extract logic has been updated to include students enrolled after the last day of regular attendance. These students will be extracted with a "Y" in the Absence Exempt Indicator column. Also, teachers taking attendance would cause the Attendance History totals to be recalculated without limiting by the Last Day of Regular School Attendance when populated, fixed.
This process incorrectly limited term values selected for Work in Progress resulting in duplicate records in the Course Grade Template file, fixed. Also, updated the testing file name to conform to CCGI naming standards.
