The CAASPP Student Condition Codes option allows the user to extract condition code data from the Test Settings (STS) table which can then be copied into the CAASPP--Condition-Codes-Upload-Template_2023-24.xlsx provided by CAASPP. Once the template file has been populated with the Test Settings data it can be uploaded into TOMS to update the students’ condition code reasons for the Smarter Balanced ELA and Math tests, CA Science Test, CA Alternative Assessments for ELA, Math and Science, and the California Spanish Assessment (CSA).

The CAASPP--Condition-Codes-Upload-Template_2023-24.xlsx file must be downloaded from the CAASPP website (http://caaspp.org/administration/toms/) and saved on the computer that will create the extract.

NOTE:  The CAASPP--Condition-Codes-Upload-Template_2023-24.xlsx file must be the original file downloaded from the CAASPP website, with no student information in it. 

On the State Testing Export Files screen enter a date in the Include active settings with a start date on or before this date field. The date is used to determine which Test Settings records will be included in the extract. To be included in the extract the Test Settings Start Date (STS.SD) must be less than or equal to the entered date and the Test Settings End Date (STS.ED) must either be greater than the entered date or must be Null. The Test Settings record also must be a Condition Code record. If you wish to limit the extracted records to certain students click on the Aeries QUERY button and run a query to limit to the desired students. Checkboxes to Include Inactive Students and to Limit to Special Ed are also available to further limit the students in the extract file.

Once all selections have been made click on the Download File button. A file called CAASPPConditionCodes20yymmdd.csv will be created (where yymmdd are the year, month and day that the file was created for). This file may open immediately on your computer, or it may download as shown below.

Open the file to view the extracted records.

These records need to be copied from the file and pasted into the CAASPP--Condition-Codes-Upload-Template_2023-24.xlsx template file. Copy the results by selecting the records, right click and select Copy.

Open up the CAASPP--Condition-Codes-Upload-Template_2023-24.xlsx file provided by CAASPP, right-click in the A2 cell of the Condition Codes Template worksheet and select Paste. Be sure to leave the first row intact. This row must not be modified.

The template file will now have the provided header record followed by the student records. Save the file. Import this file into TOMS.
