Wirral_Wonderer Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 Just so that you are not all scratching your heads, ESS have confirmed that there is an error with SIMS when importing an ATF for new admisssions. Aparently they are working on a solution... 2
Emmaabbeywood Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 Thanks for letting us know - I can't see anything on the ESS Supportpage as yet. Do you have any further details about the error? We are able to import the students, but getting the message A mandatory tag is missing. It can be identified with the xpath of /ATfile/ATFpupilData/Pupil/SENhistory/SEN Many thanks, Emma
Wirral_Wonderer Posted March 4, 2022 Author Posted March 4, 2022 You have got furhter than we have, ours just says system is unable to impor the file - the file slelected is not valid, all the students are shown, but the last line says Unexpected Error the coversions of navchar data to type to a small data type resulted in an out of range value... We are supported by our LA and they came back with that ESS are aware and working on a fix! Good luck! 1

coolhands Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 I don't know your specific case but sometimes it's the header in the file is wrong? Eg old version? like 20.0 etc 1
howartp Posted March 11, 2022 Posted March 11, 2022 Can anyone tell me where they got their ATF from? We usually go to DfE > Secure Data Transfer > Downloads > ATF, but it's showing no file available for us? Peter
malbox Posted March 11, 2022 Posted March 11, 2022 I may be wrong (as far as I'm aware - I do check where you've mentioned - we've never had one made available to us - we've always had to chase primary schools for a CTF) but I believe your LA are the people responsible for producing and distributing - it may be they just haven't got round to it yet (assuming they do them)
howartp Posted March 11, 2022 Posted March 11, 2022 We're actually on the boundary of two LA's which makes it more interesting as we're 50/50 split. I'll wait until our admissions officer is back on Monday; I know she has (sole) access to NY admissions portal but myself and two others have previously been able to grab ATF from DfE so we were just confused.

THERADIOTUBBY Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Here in Notts the downloaded file when opened in Notepad had the header Admissions Data Transfer File 16.0 2022-03-21T14:57:37 full CCS - One Just changed the 16.0 to 18.0 saved and all worked fine Admissions Data Transfer File 18.0 2022-03-21T14:57:37 full CCS - One
