CALPADS ODS Reports 1.18 and 8.1

Data Acquisition Instructions

Step 1

Go to www.calpads.org, and login using your credentials provided by the LEA

Step 2 Click on the “Reports” drop-down box located along the left-hand side of the screen.

After expanding the drop-down, click on “ODS Reports”.

Step 3 (1.18 FRPM)

Locate and click on the report titled “1.18 FRPM-English Learner-Foster Youth-Student List ”

Step 4 In this window, it is vital that you choose the correct dates for export. Select a date for the end of your school year (after completion of Spring testing).

After you’ve done this, click “View Report” on the right-hand side of the screen.

Step 5 Now that the report has appeared at the bottom of your screen, click the save icon and choose “CSV (comma delimited)”.

If these selections don’t produce a report, go back to step 4 and choose a slightly earlier as-of date, and try again.

Please note that we cannot accept any files in a format other than CSV. Do NOT send Excel files (.xls, .xlsx)

Step 6 This will download a .CSV file to your computer, in the manner typical for your browser.

When naming the file, please append the Month and year as exported (e.g. 5-2021) in the file name after saving, but Do not open and save the CSV. Keep it as-is.

Do NOT open the downloaded file in Excel. Keep as-is, and send us the untouched file.

Step 7 (8.1 Student Profile) To export your 8.1 reports, return to the “ODS Reports” page.

Now scroll down until you see “8.1 Student Profile – List” and click the report title.

Step 8 Mimicking step 4, populate the date drop-down boxes with the same end of year date you used in your 1.18 export.

Now click “View Report”

Step 9 Now that the report has appeared at the bottom of your screen, click the save icon and choose “CSV (comma delimited)”.

Once again, if these selections don’t produce a report, go back to step 4 and choose a slightly earlier as-of date, and try again.

Please note that we cannot accept any files in a format other than CSV. Do NOT send Excel files (.xls, .xlsx)

Step 10 This will download a .CSV file to your computer, in the manner typical for your browser.

When naming the file, please append the Month and year as exported (e.g. 5-2021) in the file name after saving, but Do not open and save the CSV. Keep it as-is.

Do NOT open the downloaded file in Excel. Keep as-is, and send us the untouched file.

Step 11 Once you’ve downloaded both files, upload the properly-named files you created to us via MMARS’ integrated, validated upload utility.
