General Release Summary

Generate Hotfix 3.6 includes defect resolution for reports, and updates to the ETL (Data Store).

Updated Reports

The following Standard EDFacts reports were updated in this release.

Database Updates

  1. 029 Directory: Updated RDS.Create_OrganizationReportData to remove filtering of Closed, Inactive, and Future Schools or LEAs. (Reference CIID-3908)

  2. 029: Added fields and developed RDS ETL for Mailing Address Line 2 and Physical Address Line 2. (Reference CIID-3914)

  3. 029: Resolved issue with reconstituted status. In organization_encapsulated, the code that populated RefReconstitutedStatusId in ODS.OrganizationFederalAccountability did not qualify the select statement. Staging.Organization has LEA rows that do not have a school ID which caused there to be NULL OrganizationIds in the insert which resulted in an error. This was fixed by adding 'WHERE orgst.SchoolOrganizationId is not null' to the select. (Reference CIID-3889)

  4. Cleaned up duplicated calls to functions in Organization_encapsulated. (Reference CIID-3865)
