Data Patches

These are changes to the PICS Database structure to support future features. When they are available they will be announced as New Features or Improvements in the relevant Release Notes.

  • Desktop PICS, PICSWeb – Permissions for PICSWeb have been made more granular.

Bug Fixes

  • Claims and Profiles – The FM36 Funding Calculation was not applying the “Funding Used at Previous Provider” accurately to Framework Uplift funding. Now fixed.

  • Imports and Exports – The 2019 ILR Exporter no longer sends ACT FAM records which have a Valid From date in 2020. This is to prevent rule R110 when learners have become employed after the 1st August 2020.

  • Imports and Exports, PelControl – HE data would not be imported from ILRs in some cases. Now fixed.

  • Desktop PICS – Learner Imports were not respecting the Qualification Plan Aim type “Non Funding Body – Tracking only” and adding them to the ILR. Now fixed.

  • Reporting – The Audit Report’s “Source of Funding” Report was incorrectly identifying FM36 aims as having an incorrect Source of Funding if an LSDPostcode is present. Now fixed.

  • Reporting – The Audit Report’s Maths and English options were not respecting MCF/ECF codes 4 and 5 when determining the condition of funding against learners. Now fixed.
