The primary purpose of TCSI Read-Only mode is to retrieve the Unique Identifiers (UIDs) that have been generated by the Government from historically reported HEIMS data and assign them to equivalent records within Paradigm. Once the data matching task is complete there are is a series of additional checklists that must be passed before entering TCSI Write mode.

...

• The Department of Education is not accepting pre-2020 data submitted via TCSI. This means providers must fully report all of their 2019 (or earlier) data via HEPCAT prior to the cut-off date currently set at 31st May 30192019. This data must be reported before that provider can enter Write-Only mode. Revisions to 2019 data are to be made via the TCSI portal.

• Revisions to 2019 unit enrolment data should be made directly via the TCSI Data Entry tool, with the corresponding Paradigm record manually updated thereafter.

• In the TCSI B2G specification every student UID submitted will be assigned a CHESSN number, so you will no longer need to get a CHESSN number for your students. This means our existing real time CHESSN allocation button will no longer work as expected once you move into Safe Mode.

...

This task is performed on demand by the Silverband support team. Raise a ticket via the Silverband Help-desk portal when your provider is ready to schedule a download of TCSI UID data. For larger institutions, this process may take up to 24 hours to complete due to the rate limiting that is required imposed by the TCSI government systems.
