Integration with student information systems

Purpose

1.1. Automate the integration between charter school attendance & record management systems and external student information systems (SIS) to sync student data, attendance logs, and record updates in real time.
1.2. Streamline reporting for state compliance, eliminate dual data entry, and enable automated notifications to stakeholders on attendance events or data changes.
1.3. Automator ensures that every data point across platforms is consistent, reducing manual errors, automating updates, and automating the flow of student records between disparate systems.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. New student enrollment or record creation triggers automated data sync.
2.2. Attendance status update triggers auto-push of data to SIS.
2.3. Edit or update in a student's profile automates record reconciliation across connected platforms.
2.4. Scheduled nightly or weekly automation for bulk record transfers.
2.5. Automated alerting when data discrepancies arise between systems.
