From DATANewsline at ode.state.or.us Fri Nov 2 09:57:51 2012 From: DATANewsline at ode.state.or.us (Data Newsline) Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2012 09:57:51 -0700 Subject: [OSTXUsers] OSTX Enhancements Available November 1 Message-ID: OSTX Enhancements Available November 1 New enhancements to the Oregon Student Record Transfer Exchange (OSTX) application were released November 1. These enhancements, developed based on user input and feedback, are intended to improve the usability and functionality of the application. Download Student Information in PDF Form Student information available through the OSTX application can now be downloaded in PDF format. Information can be downloaded as a complete summary or limited to specific student information tabs. Download Student Information in the KIDS Format Student information available through the OSTX application can now be downloaded in the KIDS file format. The file is requested through OSTX and delivered via Secure File Transfer. This option provides additional information beyond what is shown in the OSTX application. The KIDS format is delimited so the information can be displayed in a spreadsheet. This format will allow districts to automate loading of electronic student data into their student information systems. Additional enhancements are planned to increase the functionality of the application. We will notify users as these enhancements are released. If you have feedback about the OSTX application, please contact Joel Robe.

That issue should be fixed. In addition, we have also heard that some of you are not seeing current year students. Our developers believe they have fixed that problem as well. I would appreciate it if you would check to see if you are getting access to the tabs you are authorized to and if you are seeing all of your students. If you are not seeing your tabs or if you are only seeing students that previously left please let the ODE helpdesk know by calling 503-947-5715 or emailing ODE.Helpdesk at ode.state.or.us. If you are seeing current year students but are missing some student records please contact your regional data warehouse provider through the process defined for you by your district. We want to make sure you have all of the data we have received from your regional data warehouse provider. In addition, if you have any other issues please let the ODE Helpdesk or your regional data warehouse provider know. The sooner we know there are problems the sooner we can resolve them. Thank you.
