Entry Qualification Subject

Child Entities: None

The entity only has a single Subject Identifier. In cases where multiple entities were previously reported and one or more no longer apply, extract entities are created with Entity Status of Delete.

Fields

For each Entry Qualification Subject field extract record for the return, the record is compared with the corresponding submitted data (MST) record:

  • If the Derived Value of the field is NULL ERROR, set Field Status to Error.

  • If the combination of Institution, SID, Entry Qualification ID, Subject ID and Field doesn't exist in the submitted data record, set Field Status to New.

  • If the combination exists in the extract record and the Entity Status in the most recent submitted data record is Delete, set Field Status to New.

  • If the Reported Value in the extract is different to the Reported Value in the most recent submitted data record, set Field Status to Amended.

    Note: As there is currently only one key field for the entity this step will not be followed

  • Set the Field Status to Unchanged, that is, Reported Value in the extract is the same as in the most recent submitted data record.

Entities

For each Entry Qualification Subject entity extract record for the return, the record is compared with the corresponding submitted data (MST) record:

  • If at least one field has Field Status of Error, set Entity Status to Error.

  • If the combination of Institution, SID, Entry Qualification ID and Subject ID doesn't exist in the submitted data record, set Entity Status to New.

  • If the combination exists in the extract record and the Entity Status in the most recent submitted data record is Delete, set Entity Status to New.

  • If there are one or more child Field extract records with Field Status of New or Amended, set Entity Status to Amended.

  • Set Entity Status to Unchanged, that is, either there are no child fields extract or all the fields have Field Status of Unchanged.

  • For any existing entities in extract where the Subject for the entity doesn't appear in the submitted data record, create a new entity using the Subject with Entity Status of Delete. A new field extract record for the SUBJECTID is created with Field Status of Delete.
