TSDL/CVR

The TSDL/CVR program serves two purposes: (1) Create EOC files for the state EOC testing system, and (2) create TSDL files for the state TSDL system.

The primary difference between the two is the use of the setting Show only courses with final weight. When this is selected, the system assumes that an EOC file is being created, and only EOC courses with a final weight in the course catalog will be submitted. When the setting is not selected, the system assumes a TSDL file is being created, and all selected courses are included in the TSDL file.

How-to

1. In the left navigation panel, go to Student Master, then Interfaces, then TSDL/CVR.
2. At the setup, set the usual standard setup fields like Year, District, School, and As of Date.
   • School: Click then select some or all of the schools.
     • NOTE: Some large districts are reporting that the TSDL system cannot process the entire district at one time. Therefore, if a large district, it may be necessary to select a group of schools at a time to split the district into several files.
   • Course Grades: Leave blank unless user wishes to only send courses for selected grade levels.
   • As of Date: Usually set for current date.

   • Use SIS School: Click if your district is using SIS School functionality.
   • Show only courses with final weight: Select if building a file for EOC system, otherwise, leave deselected for TSDL file creation.
