WISEdata Portal

“FAPE Student Details” Screen in Resources Menu

A new “FAPE Student Details” screen in the Resources menu of the WiseData Portal (WDP) makes transparent for which resident students your district is FAPE accountable, even if they attend school in a different district. District users can now review resident student details when the FAPE accountable school on the sSEPA record belongs to their district, but another district submitted the record.

 

“Favorites” Feature on Exports Screen

We added a new Favorites feature to the Exports screen to help users easily identify and save preferred exports. The feature introduces a new column titled Favorite. Each export in this column displays an unselected star icon, which fills when the user clicks it to mark the export as a favorite. Users can select any number of favorites without restriction, and these selections save to their profile. The Exports screen has two radio buttons above the list of exports, “Show Favorites” and “Show All.” Clicking the “Show Favorites” button reduces the full list of exports to display only the user’s selected favorites.

New IB Mathematics Courses added to the Course Catalog

Two new courses, “IB Mathematics: Application and Interpretation,” and  “IB Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches,” are now in WISEdata Portal’s course catalog. For more details, log in to WISEdata Portal, click the Resources tab, click Courses, and search for these courses.

Bug Fix: Overlapping Enrollments screen

We fixed a bug that prevented the Overlapping Enrollments screen from showing data for some LEAs. To access this screen, log in to WISEdata Portal, click the Resources tab, and click Overlapping Enrollments.

Bug Fix: Checkboxes on Validation Messages screen

We fixed a bug that prevented certain checkboxes on the Validation Messages screen from filtering as intended.

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.

Release Notes from 11/25/2025

WISEdata Portal:

Validation Error 7469

We updated the logic for validation error 7469, “Incomplete Exit Information,” so that exit type, exit date, and next grade level are required exit information only for primary enrollments.

Validation Warning 7471

We updated the logic for validation warning 7471, “Parent Address AND Student Address Are Missing,” so that it only checks the student’s current primary enrollment for an address.

Validation Warning 7504

We fixed a bug in validation warning 7504 regarding missing membership information so that it is a school-level rather than agency-level warning.

WISEdata Portal:

Career Education (CE) export descriptions

We updated the descriptions of CE exports for the school years 2024-25 and earlier to match how the data was collected in those years.

School information systems (SISs) can pull assessment data

Local Education Agencies (LEAs) and vendors with a public claimset can now access assessment data submitted for students in their district from the API.

Updated vaccine codes

The Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR) integration has been updated to include the latest vaccine codes. This Vaccine Code List (.XLS) is the most current list available, and is maintained by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS). This update helps LEAs avoid the need to manually reference student vaccination codes by accessing WIR when a match is not found.

Resolved issue with L1 error JSON display on the home page

An issue that prevented the L1 error JSON from displaying correctly on the home page is fixed. Users can now view the full JSON details for L1 errors directly from the home page as expected, improving visibility and troubleshooting.

WISEdata Updates

WISEdata Portal:

Updates to processes have improved overall application performance and response times since the Third Friday of September count.

Updates ensure that schools appear in the search when filtering by School Category.

The Assessment Roster screen (under the Resources tab) corrects the name of Pearson’s assessment, reporting, and data-management system, which is aimswebPlus. This screen also now has counts for district-level contacts in the staffEducationOrganizationContactAssociations.

When the WISE application becomes unresponsive due to API issues, it now redirects users to a page advising them to try again later.

The descriptions for the following Career Education data exports are now updated:

  • Industry Recognized Credentials/Work-Based Learning
  • CTE Participants
  • Career Connected High School

Release Notes from 9/30/25

WISEdata Portal Updates

WISEdata Portal:

‘Queue Import & Validation’ button removed from Agency menu's home screen: The button remains on the Validation Jobs screen under the Jobs tab. It also remains on the Validation Messages screen under the Agency tab. This reduces confusion for any users who think they need to run jobs ad hoc every time they open the home screen. It also helps users only intentionally trigger imports and validation jobs to run ad hoc when needed.

Export - Enrollment - 3rd Friday September: The definition for “Choice Student Indicator” now appears in the definitions for the “Enrollment – 3rd Friday September Export.” On the Exports screen of WISEdata Portal, click Definitions to the right of any export to see its columns’ definitions.

Export - Student Section Associations: The “Student Section Associations Export” (Category: Roster) now includes a Homeroom column. The definition of Homeroom is now included in this export’s definitions.

Bug Fix – Data Quality and Validation Messages screens: On the Data Quality and Validation Messages screens, data for the 2025-26 school year now displays immediately, as long as there is data. This repairs a previous bug in which the user needed to change to a previous school year and then return to the 2025-26 school year to see the current year’s data.

Bug Fix – Hyperlinks to KBAs: Hyperlinks from validation warnings 7509, 7510, and 7511 now function. This repairs a previous bug.

Resource Tab addition – Assessment Roster: There is now an Assessment Roster screen available under the Resources tab. It pulls the count of resources available by the API by the school. Specifically, it displays those needed for Pearson, aimswebPlus, and Act 20 rostering. This went into production before the current release date (9/30) to help districts who were experiencing issues.

WISEdata Portal Updates

WISEdata Portal: New graph shows which categories of data have the most issues

WISEdata Portal’s “Data Quality” tab now includes an additional bar graph under “Distribution of Messages” to give users a quick understanding of the number of data quality issues in different categories, such as attendance, discipline, enrollment, and more. Data quality issues that fall into multiple categories count toward each category’s total.

Ed-Fi Updates

Ed-Fi: Clarified language on vendor and agency agreements

The EdTech Vendor Agreement and the Agency Agreement no longer have a “Reject” option. Instead, each agreement has a “No thank you” link that returns the user to WISEhome.

For release notes prior to those listed here, please submit a Help Ticket.
