Level 1 Errors - Teaching and Learning


Most TEA Ed-Fi codes are hard-coded in Aeries and do not need to be mapped.

* An asterisk in the Label & Aeries Table.Field column indicates a code set where local codes can be used. Any local codes used by the district must be mapped to TEA Ed-Fi codes on School Info > Imports and Exports > Ed-Fi Code Mappings.


Entity: Course

All State Course Codes are pre-loaded into your IODS by TEA.  This entity only syncs local Services ID's. These Service ID's will load into your IODS as a Level 1.5 filter and will NOT promote unless you map them in your DMC to a State Course Codes. See TWEDS Course Code list for the most recent Service Id's pre-loaded by TEA.

NOTE:  If you do not use any local Service ID's, when you sync the Course Entity the results box will indicate: There are no results

"There are no Results’ and 0 records uploaded" (when syncing the course entity)

If you do not use any local course codes, this is the expected result.  The TEA preloads the Course Entity information into each LEA's individual operational data store (IODS) on a yearly basis. Only state course codes are loaded by the TEA.
