Manual Uploading of SAIS Files via Common Logon

Instructions for Manual File Upload via Common Login

I am hearing that some schools have some short deadlines for getting data submitted; so if you have an immediate need to submit your data I suggest that you temporarily use the "manual" method of submitting files as described below:

You should proceed as per normal with Estudiante, except for SAIS Support Step 2 (which is the upload step).  Instead of running Estudiante Step 2 you should follow the instructions for manually uploading to common logon.  For instructions see Manual File Upload to SAIS  and select "Illustrated Instructions for Upload/Download".  These are instructions for manually uploading SAIS data files.

When manually uploading you will be ask to decide whether to upload to the District or the School.  You must select the School and not the District.

Which file to upload?

Estudiante places the Student Data Files (.sdf)  in a folder named "Submit" which will always be located in the same folder where the data file (CD_be_DataS.mdb) is located.  If you are not on a network this will be on the local C drive in Estudiante folder.  For network installations the folder will be located on the server in a folder normally named Estudiante_Data.  You can identify the files by the sequence number which is imbedded in the file name.

All  Estudiante operations except Uploading will be the same.  Even SAIS Support Step 3 is to be used to retrieve the status of the uploaded file.
