Here is the correct link to Canva for Schools, Districts, and School Systems Application https://form826027.typeform.com/canva-district?typeform-source=www.canva.com I came across some other links earlier, filled the form and never hear back, Canva says they were contact form links.

So I removed all SEN tags but there is now another FSM error which doesn't give any specific details: Error ID Application Ref Number Pupil Forename Pupil Surname Description Is Critical 0 N/A N/A N/A Unexpected Error: The INSERT statement conflicted with the CHECK constraint "chk_adm_application_free_school_meals_history_start_date". The conflict occurred in database "sims", table "sims.adm_application_free_school_meals_history". The statement has been terminated. I checked the syntax with XML Tools plugin for Notepad++ and syntax looks fine. No idea where to look for this ...

@CAM Thank you for the quick reply. So can I remove SEN tags completely from ATF and won't get an error when importing?

We got ATF provided by Birmingham LA Admissions, looks like there is a problem with SEN tag which is causing ATF to fail when importing. When importing ATF process ends with this error and none of the applicants are imported: The applicant's SEN details will not be imported due to the following error: A mandatory tag is missing. It can be identified with the xpath of /ATfile/ATFpupilData/Pupil/SENhistory/SENneeds/SENneed After lots of ping pong emails between LA and Capita looks like none of them will help with this issue which is an absolute joke. They already delayed whole process for over month and we still ended up with none working ATF. Capita says " Unfortunately as we have not created the file we are unable to make these changes for you, it is something that your LA would need to do or it can be done within school." LA says: "I’m sorry but I don’t have the ability to remove the SEN data either, this would be down to our IT and software suppliers and they are advising they can’t provide a technical solution. We do not have access to test instances on any of the school MIS systems so cannot properly evaluate any changes that are made to the file structure. As such, neither CACI nor IT&D can provide any technical solution to the issues. Most Schools are indicating they are missing SEN Start Dates. This tag is shown as optional in the DfE schema so if missing this it should not prevent the file from loading, except that the affected MIS has decided that, if there is SEN data there should be a Start Date and so incorrectly treats the tag as Mandatory. The missing SEN Start whilst technically the file should be loadable by the MIS, if all the data were present then the tag would not be missing and so would not cause an issue." What are our options here other than entering data manually? Is it simply a matter of opening ATF with Notepad++ and replacing all SEN info with ? We will then import data via CTF or enter manually (better SEN only than all data). Apparently lots of secondary schools are affected by this in Birmingham. Any help will be appreciated.

I guess they sent it to thousands of people, it seems to be going in batches of 100 emails. I and a few other colleagues received this email in separate batches. Probably big sorry email for disclosing a large number of email addresses will follow. How does it relate to GDPR?

@adamsund Have you tried to use the new Sharepoint Migration Tool? Comments under the article you posted: "MS should have consulted you. Their tool sucks, even for a beta. Yours is a life saver. Keep up the great work!" "They released half of it. They don’t pre-prevision nor assign permissions. Their tool is not complete! Please continue to support O365 Migrator!"

After trying litigation hold we found that the best way is to covert leavers mailboxes to shared mailboxes. Reasons: no need for exchange licenses, can be stored indefinitely, you can share the mailboxes with new employees if needed to retrieve emails. Account disabled.

Just go to run command by using Windows+R, then type Services.msc. Go to "shell hardware detection properties" and try to enable it. You can try to change it to Automatic or Manual. That's it.

Anyone had a luck with using ACT Enterprise UserImportTool to import photos? Any tips regarding import and enabling/disabling users from SIMS (we have Salamander)? I search for some manuals for UserImportTool but only found this: http://inter.act.eu/wp-content/uploads/documents/ACTpro_Enterprise_user_guide.pdf

No I wasn't planning to use another LA's definitions. Just tried to save our finance team some time in case these files are available from Birmingham CC. No I don't purchase Link2ICT support.

Any idea where can I get XML's from to import Pay Related Definitions ( Teachers Pay Scales etc)? I googled and got this page with loads of XML's: HGfL: SITSS: Personnel Coordinators - Pay Related Definitions Is there something similar for Birmingham LA?
