Interim Importer Update: 2023-01-13

Issue: Interim data files failed to import properly.

Status: Resolved

Summary of most recent events

Interim reports failed to import for Administration Window 3. After investigation, the following was determined:

TEA updated its data file format to include extra fields. The addition of these fields resulted in a mismatch of formats between the new data files and Eduphoria’s Interim data file importer. The update impacted districts trying to upload and view assessment data in Aware. Once Eduphoria became knowledgeable of the extra fields, steps were taken to update the Interim file importer.

Steps already taken by Eduphoria

Eduphoria has fixed the issue where Interim files were failing to import due to extra columns added by TEA. 

In addition to fixing the issue, Eduphoria has added greater functionality to the Interim data view:

• Within the Aware data view, Interim data now includes "earned" Performance Levels. Aware users will be able to see both Performance Level and Probability of Performance Level fields in the Interim default view. 
• Within Aware Classic, assessment data for Interim data files will now display a star icon for state test file types instead of the green pencil icon for local test types.

Update as of 2023-01-20

Eduphoria has mass reimported any failed Interim data files for 2023. No action is required by district users to reimport data.
