Duplicate Record within File based on Operational Key

Understanding the Error: The Special Education Plan (PLAN) file submitted contains two records that CALPADS interprets as the same record. Both records have the same operational key: Reporting LEA, SSID, Reporting SELPA and Special Education Plan Effective Start Date. These are the fields that CALPADS uses to uniquely identify a record in the ODS. Therefore, there can't be two records with the same unique identifiers.

Things to check for in submission: Verify that the fields listed in the Fields Validated column are correct in the submitted file.

Suggested Resolution:
1) Delete one of the duplicate records and resubmit the file.

OR

2) If file produced from local SES, contact vendor/technical resource to determine reason for duplicate record and to determine how to resolve the problem.
