James posted on the forum topic Apprenticeship – Programme Aim (ZPROG001) in the group Data Issues: 10 months, 1 week ago
Hi Chris
Presumably you have flagged the ZPROG001 code as A04=35 and A10=45? The rule seems to suggest that this isn't the case.
I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

James posted on the forum topic LAD – Funding Details for 11/12 in the group Data Issues: 1 year ago
@Matt Harrold@tbg and you believed them? Our software supplier has indicated that the change to XML will be incredibly slow and we'll only have basic functionality for the first return.
The development of the much anticipated LARA has gone rather quiet.. maybe she's being a bit temperamental! Chances are that if The Data Service are putting [...]

James started the forum topic "Training offer for those unemployed for 6 months" eligibility question in the group Data Issues: 1 year, 4 months ago
Hi everyone
We have been told that when a learner is transferred to stage 4 by Job Centre Plus they are no longer able to continue with the 6MO programme except to finish whatever they are on. If they had, for example, accrued 40 hours and were transferred onto stage 4, but then went on to [...]

Hi Martin
This is a great help. Thanks very much. At least I now know where to look.

James started the forum topic Training offer for those unemployed for 6 months in the group Data Issues: 1 year, 7 months ago
Hi
Wonder if someone can answer this for me please? Our learners who are on the 'Training offer for those unemployed for 6 months' aren't appearing on our ER Indicative Occupancy List (report 14 from LIS). A10 is coded as either '80' or '81' as per the guidance but they're not listed.
Also, we have spotted that [...]

James Pask started the forum topic DSAT 100-03-205 16-18 year old learners with no full funding or co-funding in the group Data Service Software: 1 year, 8 months ago
Hello
We have some learners who are flagged as '09 fully funded – undertaking programmes where the main learning aim is basic skills' in field A14 and who are aged between 16-18. They are coming up on the DSAT report 100-03-205 suggesting that A14 should be changed to '01'.
Most of them are on the Certificate in [...]

James Pask posted on the forum topic ULN Problems – RC0007 in the group Learning Records Service (previously MIAP): 1 year, 9 months ago
Oh, I see what you mean now. A common problem! To be honest, if the First Name, Surname, DoB and Post Code are the same then that's pretty likely to be a match. What I tend to do is add the address details in – but only if the postcode we have is different to [...]

James Pask posted on the forum topic ULN Problems – RC0007 in the group Learning Records Service (previously MIAP): 1 year, 9 months ago
Frustrating, isn't it!? Usually it'll be down to sloppy handwriting on the enrolment form. A 'G' misinterpreted as a 'Q', a 'J' instead of a 'T', 'V' and 'U' etc or our input team not hitting the 'Validate postcode' button on our MIS software.
Fortunately I have postcode software installed on my computer so I'm able [...]

James Pask commented on the blog post ULN best practice guide – your views 1 year, 10 months ago
Best practice on what to do when duplicates are found on the LRS site would be handy. I originally got told to complete a sort of online utility which would assist me in deciding whether a duplicate had been found which I find quite useful (although some of the questions aren’t that user friendly to [...]

James Pask started the forum topic Change Request 17: Transfer to learning aims within the same provider in the group 2010/11 ILR Change Discussion: 1 year, 11 months ago
"Allow recording of learner transfers to other learning aims with the same provider without affecting success rates."
I was under the impression that the idea of transferring off a programme to another was a complete no-no now. I fully understand and appreciate that success rates shouldn't be affected but it seems like we're being told one [...]

James Pask posted on the forum topic Multiple ULN's for one person. in the group MIAP: 1 year, 11 months ago
There is a handy little web based kit which helps you to identify where learners have more than one ULN and it guides you through the process and spits out a form at the end which you can send to MIAP so they can merge the records. Just email the MIAP people and I'm sure [...]

James Pask posted on the forum topic Change request 46: Vaildity of EDRS number in field A44 in the group 2010/11 ILR Change Discussion: 2 years, 2 months ago
As Tony said, it would be very handy if you could have a request tool like the one for ULNs. An overnight process would be ideal although I suppose it would be complicated and difficult to manage from EDS end because they have to contact the employers. There still must be some way of automating [...]

"Any thoughts yet on how to use EDRS numbers which are no longer valid ?"You should be able to request that the URN is made valid again. I can't exactly remember where I've read it (or if I've just been told by them directly) but you can put in the 'notes' section when you update a [...]
