<p class="Default" style="margin-left:1.0in;text-indent:2.25pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">ODE released new 2TRD and BODE manifests to tighten up checks for MOA IRN and Accountability IRN (reporting a building
in other districts is unacceptable, must report an IRN within your LEA’s hierarchy or ******). Districts may now have errors on records that would have previously gone through.

<b>FY18L Career Tech checks updated </b>– <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">1) ODE has re-implemented CS.0018 check for CBI courses to make sure they’re correlated. There were so many of these
errors when they first started running these CTE reports that they stopped the check. This check was reapplied this past weekend so FTE will be impacted once again.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="margin-left:.5in;text-indent:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">2) Another CTE check will be out in a week or two: if there is no teacher for a course, will start zeroing out funding
because all CTE courses must have a teacher (this just impacts a few courses statewide).

<b>FY18P 5-year Forecast Required Spring Update </b>– Early next week the required Spring 5-Year Forecast ‘P’ collection will open for districts to complete submissions by the end of May. After analysis of the 5-year forecast in the fall, ODE will be adding
a couple checks: <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">1) It appears some districts are not reporting all line items required. If all line items are not included, the entire forecast will now
fatal. Even if they are forecasting zero expense/revenue, it is a requirement that all lines are included in each submission. If they are missing a row, it will fatal everything and they will not be permitted to submit a collection with zero data, so they
may need to go back and add line items/data rows for zero balances/expense/revenue.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">2) A lot of districts are also ignoring warnings when totals don’t add up. Totals are not always precise (e.g., calculated with pennies, rounded to nearest
dollar), so small variations may be ok, but ODE is adding checks so too large of a variation (possibly indicating a larger issue) will now fatal the forecast.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
