WISE Application Release Notes

WISEdata Portal:

Updated Resources Under Alerts
We added links to current resources for WISEdash Analytics and Snapshot Dashboards at the bottom of the Alerts screen.

Bug Fix: Resolved Error 7508

We resolved the issue related to Validation Error 7508 “Education Environment code does not match Student Age.” Previously, WDP incorrectly displayed this error when a student had multiple enrollments. We fixed this bug, ensuring that only the grade level associated with the update is considered during validation.

Note –changes released on January 13

Update to Landing Page

• The default landing page when signing in to WISEid is now the Change Requests screen. If users have not verified their WISEid contacts yet for the current school year, they land on the Update Contacts screen. Otherwise, they land on the Change Requests screen when logging in.

Update to Change Request Alert Banner

• The Change Request alert banner that displays when agencies have requests needing attention now indicates when an agency has change requests pending verification. This alert indicates that the agency has submitted change requests not yet verified, meaning the changes have not been applied to the affected WISEids. Agencies should review all change requests with a status of Pending District Verification and approve them so that the changes are applied to the WISEid.

User’s Agency Now Displays with Person Change History

• We added the agency associated to the user who made a change to staff or student WISEid data to the Person Change History screen. This helps anyone researching WISEid changes to more quickly identify which district or school to contact when more information is needed about why a change to demographic data was made.

Bug Fix

• On January 14^th, we fixed a bug in which the Person Change History screen was not showing any history.

Note –changes released on January 13

Improved Grades Question Logic

• We removed the grades question from the Add/Edit Assignment page when grades are not required for the selected assignment. Previously, the grade boxes appeared but were not required. Now, to avoid confusion, the grade boxes do not appear for assignments that don’t require grades to be collected.

Bug Fix

• We fixed a bug on the Working Agency Staff report that showed duplicate assignments for staff who have assignments in multiple districts.

WISEadmin Portal

The Library Plan Report now additionally includes districts that have not submitted a District Library Plan. If a district has saved but not yet submitted a plan, the “Saved” status now displays. Users can only view submitted District Library Plans.

When a previously active District Library Plan has moved to inactive status because it has expired, then it is no longer editable in WISEadmin. The app requires a new submission.

School Modification:

The School Modification App replaces the previous School Modification Form. Use this app to request to open or close a school. User guides for the new School Modification app are on the School Modification Application page.

Partner Support Team pages and Other WISE Webpages

We removed the WISELearn button from the left side menu of the WISE section of DPI’s website because Partner Support does not support this application; it is not an option within a WISE help ticket. Educators can continue to access the WISELearn application and documentation from the Schools & Educators section of DPI’s website.
