Enrollment 25.4.0.0

Amharic Language

Amharic is now a supported language within the Parent Portal. All default system content is available in Amharic. Translations for custom content (form content, list item display values, and so on) in Amharic can now be configured within the Admin Portal. When enabled, parents can select Amharic from the language menu in the Parent Portal and interact with the application in Amharic.

Requires purchase of Amharic and enablement by Support.

Tag History in Roster Workspace

Users with permission profiles that grant access to manage at least one Roster workspace tag can now view a Tag History section within the student record view.

• If no tags have been applied or removed, the section will state: This record has no tag history.

• If tags have been applied or removed, a View Tag History link will be displayed, opening a dialog with the record's tag history.

The Tag History dialog includes a searchable, paginated table displaying the record’s tag history in descending chronological order, with columns for the date or time of the action, the user responsible, the tag name, and the action (applied or removed). The search in the dialog is enabled for all column entries.

The Tag History will begin creating entries upon deployment of this release.

Sorting PowerSchool SIS Contacts in Match Window

Contacts displayed in the Match window are sorted based on how closely they match the contact data from the delivery record. Matching criteria include the contact’s ID, first name, last name, address(es), phone number(s), and email address(es).

Each field is assigned a weighted point value based on its similarity to the delivery record. The total points determine the order in which potential matches appear, helping you quickly identify the most relevant contact.

Note: Requires Enhanced Match Criteria to be enabled and PowerSchool SIS version 25.3+.

PowerSchool SIS Contact Match Window Columns

The column headers in the contact match table have been updated to improve clarity and consistency. The updated column sequence is:

• Already Linked

• ID

• Prefix

• First Name

• Middle Name

• Last Name

• Suffix

• Gender

• Address

• Phone

• Email

• Status

In addition, the logic for displaying address, phone, and email values in each contact’s row has been enhanced to provide more relevant and valuable data, helping users make more accurate match decisions.

Note: Requires Enhanced Match Criteria to be enabled and PowerSchool SIS v25.3+.

Color Code Data for PowerSchool SIS Contacts in Match Window

The PowerSchool Contacts Match window now includes color-coded cells to help visually identify how closely each potential contact matches the delivery record.

Supported Columns for Color Coding:

• ID

• First Name

• Last Name

• Address

• Phone

• Email

Color Indicators:

• Green – Exact match

• Yellow – Partial match

• No color – No match or missing data is not color-coded

Match Logic:

• First Name, Last Name, and Address: Support exact and partial matches.

  • Partial First Name: Only the first initial matches (for example, “J.” vs “James”).

  • Partial Last Name: One part of a hyphenated name matches (for example, “Garcia-Marquez” vs “Garcia”).

  • Partial Address: Building number matches, but the full address differs.

• Phone and Email: Support exact match only. Partial matches are not highlighted.

This enhancement makes it easier to scan the list and confidently select the correct contact based on visual cues.

Note: Requires Enhanced Match Criteria to be enabled and PowerSchool SIS v25.3+.

PowerSchool SIS Contact Column Visibility in Match Window

The PowerSchool Contacts Match window now includes four toggleable links that allow users to show or hide the following columns:

• Prefix

• Middle Name

• Suffix

• Gender

Clicking any of these links hides the corresponding column from view. You can click the link again to make the column visible.

Additionally, each user's visibility preferences are saved at the school or district level. Your selections will persist across future sessions, including delivery batches, delivery configurations, and academic years, providing a consistent and personalized experience.

Note: Requires Enhanced Match Criteria and PowerSchool SIS v25.3+.

Expandable Rows for PowerSchool SIS Contacts in Match Window

Rows in the PowerSchool Contacts Match window can now be expanded to display additional information about each contact. When expanded, three side-by-side tables appear, showing all active Address, Phone, and Email records associated with that contact.

Users can expand multiple contact rows at once. Additionally, each row's expanded or collapsed state is preserved even when navigating between pages within the match dialog, ensuring a seamless and efficient review experience.

Note: Requires Enhanced Match Criteria to be enabled and PowerSchool SIS v25.3+.

Admin - Processing Automated Calculated Fields with File Update

When a file was imported into the submission workspace that updated existing records, calculated fields configured to automatically recalculate when a record was changed were not processed. This has been resolved.
