In Paradigm we push individual records one at a time. Due to a change made by the government back in August, 2020. Changing , changing any of the following fields will cause a bulk operation which may take a while in the system. Another impact of this change is that you can no longer have flexible unit enrolments that have a variable start and end dates, and census dates that do not match the scheduled unit.

...

The introduction of TCSI has presented us with an opportunity to move around some fields in a way that closer reflects the intent of the element from the perspective of the government.

The following elements

have been moved from the course enrolment screen to the student screen:

• E572 (Year left school)

• E573 (Highest educational attainment parent 1)

• E574 (Highest educational attainment parent 2)

TCSI Remapped Fields

The introduction of TCSI has presented us with an opportunity to remap some internal fields to TCSI fields as the TCSI implementation has duplicated the meaning of a field into a single field.

• E319 - Previously this field had a dual value being either a post code or a country code. Hence In HEPCAT context, It was a separate field in Paradigm. In TCSI context, this element purely represents the Term Address Postal Code and postcode. Whereas element E661 has been added to capture the Term Address country code. These address fields have been mapped to the Residential/Semester Address fields for the student. So it has been removed from the application.

• E320 - Previously this field had a dual value either a post code or country and hence a separate field in Paradigm. In TCSI this element purely represents the Term Address Postal Code. Element E658 has been added to capture the Residential Address country code. These addresses have been mapped to the Billing Address fields for the student. So it has been removed from the application.

• E330 - This field has been mapped to the Full/Part Time field in Paradigm. It used to be a calculated based on the EFTSL being submitted in the LL file. No action is required to make this work.

• E329 - This field used to be located on the course enrolment screen. It has now been remapped to the scheduled unit screen as the field Mode of Delivery. This field relies that the code items for this field have the new HEIMS value filled in. Please see video below.

...

• E599 - This field is located on the course enrolment screen and has been mapped to the course enrolment status field. The enrolment status field needs a HEIMS a value mapped to it in the status edit screen. Paradigm will only send values to TSCI TCSI where there a status mapped to the field. This means you can still have your own internal enrolment status values and only when you set a status where the value is mapped with to send a change to TSCITCSI.

Please see the video below to map values for the status items.

...

• E661 - This field has been mapped to the student country code for there their Semester Address. Paradigm now has configured a mapping of internal country code to TCSI country codes and no . No provider intervention is required for this update.

• E658 - This field has been mapped to the student country code for their Billing Address. Paradigm has configured a mapping of internal country code to TCSI country codes and no . No provider intervention is required for this update.

Additional Provider SetupSet up

In the development of TCSI you need setup set up a primary provider record where the abbreviation of the provider record matches the abbreviation of we map in Nexus for your PRODA authentication record. This means that if you are a dual sector provider then you will need 2 two primary provider records: one for Higher Education and one for VET Provider.

The primary provider record for both the higher education and primary vet VET provider must have the role: HEIMS Higher Education Provider.
