When uploading the WISEid Export Report to WISEid, there are several required fields that can create issues during the upload process if they don't have any data in them. Many of these fields are automatically populated with information recorded in Gradelink. However, sometimes these fields are filled out incorrectly or aren't filled out at all.
In the table below, required WISEid Export Report fields are listed on the left, while the corresponding fields in Gradelink are listed on the right. You can use this table to determine which fields in Gradelink you need to adjust if you are receiving errors when trying to upload the WISEid Export Report.
For example, on the WISEid Export Report, you'll see a column with the title "Local Person ID". The data recorded in this column should match the data that appears in the "Student ID" field in the Demographics section of the Students tab in Gradelink. So, if the "Local ID" column on the WISEid Export Report is empty, that means you should make sure that the "Student ID" field in Gradelink is filled out.
| WISEid Export Report Column Title | Gradelink Field Title |
|---|---|
| Local Person ID ("Local ID") | Student ID |
| Last Name | Last Name |
| First Name | First / Given |
| Birthdate | Date of Birth |
| Gender ID ("GenderID") | Gender |
| Race Key | Race Codes |
| Local Person ID Key Type ("ID Type") | See Note 1 |
| Parent 1 Type ("P.1 Type") | See Note 2 |
| Parent 1 Last Name ("P.1 Last Name") | Family 1 Father / Guardian |
| Parent 1 First Name ("P.1. First Name") | Family 1 Father / Guardian |
Note 1: The Local Person ID Key Type should always be "Student" and is set automatically by Gradelink.
Note 2: Parent 1 Type is derived from the "Family 1" field in the Demographics section of the Students tab. The top field is always interpreted as "Father" while the bottom field is always interpreted as "Mother".
