General Technical Considerations
There are several general guidelines which are common to the preparation and processing of all data submission files. These common guidelines are discussed below, while the instructions specific to the individual data submission files are contained within the Data Element Dictionary itself.
Changes in Entity Keys
If the entity within the curricular or student data area changes between data submissions, a list of such changes must accompany the submission which contains the changed key(s).
Field Justification
Right-justify and zero-fill all fields which are to be used in calculations. All such fields are identified with an asterisk (*) on the Data Element lists contained within the sections that follow. All numeric fields must be unsigned.
All other fields are left-justified and blank-filled. (Also note the Coding Considerations in the Data Element Dictionary.)
Data Submission via FTP
The following information is needed for submitting the Facility CDR data via FTP.
Facility CDR destination site: cdr.uwsa.edu (must be lower case)
| Destination file name: | WXXXZZZ.YYYT* |
XXX = |
CDR (CDR file) |
ZZZ = |
PHY (Physical Facility) |
YYY = |
year (e.g., 045 for 2004-05) |
T = |
