Duplicates in Production - RESOLVED

BIA is aware that there may be duplicate records due to an issue that occurred during last night's migration. We are actively working to resolve this issue and anticipate a resolution today.  Is it rare for us to experience issue when migrating to Production and we apologize for the inconvenience.  The following views are impacted:

  • SAH-ClassComponentSchedule-View and SAH-ClassComponentScheduleCensus-View
  • SAH-Enrollment-View and SAH-EnrollmentCensus-View
  • SAH-InstructorAssignment-View and SAH-InstructorAssignmentCensus-View
  • SAH-InstructorSchedule-View and SAH-InstructorScheduleCensus-View
  • SAH-StudentSchedule-View

New Findings Regarding Time Limit Term Code Fields

On Wednesday, October 8, BIA was made aware that the data source (OGS) used for the new Time Limit Term Code Fields displays the generic value for each program and student, and does not include ISIS overrides used for exceptions.  Due to the late discovery of this information BIA is working to review the alignment with legacy reporting in this area that prompted the addition of the fields to SAH to determine our course of any immediate action.  While improving the accuracy of these fields by including the student extensions provisioned in ISIS will be done in the future, for now we are leaving the fields as-is.  Please be aware that if you choose to use these fields the individual extensions are not included in the field logic at this time, but will be applied in a future release. 

Dev0 Phase2 Starting

On October 14th the BIA team will start Dev0 Phase 2 in our preparation for TSS.  Enhancements made in Dev0 Phase 1 will be applied to the views that are the focus of Dev0 Phase 2.  This critical effort will take several months to complete and SAH will have a code-freeze during this time.  Look for emails in February 2025 regarding Dev0 Phase 2 User Acceptance Training where report developers can provide feedback on Dev0 enhancements.

UAT - Customer Service Reminder

Data in UAT is not ready to be shared with end customers, is not considered completely validated and can change suddenly.  For optimal customer satisfaction, do not connect your production solutions to packages / data sources that are in UAT.  If you choose to share UAT items with end customer, be explicit that the data and report is in UAT and can change suddenly or be broken by UAT changes.

Follow our Enhancement User Acceptance Testing (UAT) Steps

Use this UAT time to adjust your reports as needed prior to the Production release where your customers will be able to see any issues these enhancements cause. 
  • Cognos: Use the packages in Cognos DEV > Student Activity Hub > Student Activity Hub Packages UAT to build your report and select Hana QA.  Do not select Hana Prod as the report will fail.  Using Hana QA will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data. 
  • Tableau: Sign into Tableau on your Tableau desktop tool and open your report.  Add a new data source with the same name and -QA at the end of the title.  Using this data source will allow you to see the below enhancements with Production data.
  • Hana QA:  SAH data in Hana QA is production data loaded daily, just like in Hana PROD.

If you find an issue, please include in your email to busintel@ucsd.edu the following:

  • What browser are you using?
  • What environment are you using?  Cognos DEV, QA or PROD?  Or Tableau?
  • What data source / package are you using?
  • What results were you expecting? 

Reminder: QA data sources will be deleted the Friday after the enhancements are migrated to Production.
