Address Collection (Aus)
Overview
The Address Collection (Aus) program exports student and parent/guardian information for the Australian Government Department of Education (DoE) for the Student Residential Address and Other Information Collection (Address Collection), formerly known as an SES return.
For more information about this return, refer to the SchoolsHub website.
The format required by DoE differs from how the address data is stored natively in the TASS database. Therefore, this program contains logic that re-organises the layout of the extracted data based on the rules outlined in this article.
Follow the Address Collection Checklist to ensure your Address Collection is accurate.
Selecting the Records to Include in Your Extract
Fields from the 'General', 'User Defined' and 'Billing' tabs can be used as selection criteria to filter the data to be included in the extract. These tabs are similar to those found in TASS.web Student Admin > Student Records > Student Information > Students.
How Parent Data Is Extracted for the Address Collection Extract
The Department of Education (DoE) requires separate records for the name and address of each parent or guardian. For each student, the submitted data must include a minimum of one parent or guardian and a maximum of two. The parent information is extracted from TASS.web based on the type of family arrangement.
Refer to the 'How to Handle Split Family Arrangements' guide for more information about Family Arrangements.
The fields used for ‘Parent or Guardian 1 (Mother)’ and ‘Parent or Guardian 2 (Father)’ data are set up in TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Setup Information > Parent Records Setup.
For example:
Person Position 1 = ‘Parent or Guardian 1 (Mother)’
Person Position 2 = ‘Parent or Guardian 2 (Father)’.
The ‘Person Position’ field names are customisable so they may be called something different at your school.
Family Arrangement | How Parent Data Is Extracted |
|---|---|
Nuclear family Simple split family When there is only one Parent Code on the 'Address and Communication Rules' tab of the Student Record. | The parent names will be extracted from the 'Parent or Guardian 1 (Mother)' and/or 'Parent or Guardian 2 (Father)' fields on the 'General' tab of the parent record associated with the student. The address for each parent will be extracted as follows:
Addresses will be excluded from the report if the 'Excl Addr Coll' checkbox is ticked on the 'Addresses & Comm. Rules' tab in TASS.web Student Admin > Student Records > Student Information > Students. |
Complex split family When there is more than one Parent Code on the 'Address and Communication Rules' tab of the Student Record. | The Address Collection (Aus) program will determine the parents for each student using a combination of the 'Staff View' Communication Rule and 'Relationship Tags'.
The parent names will be extracted from the 'Parent or Guardian 1 (Mother) Name' or 'Parent or Guardian 2 (Father) Name' linked to the address with the 'Relationship Tag' matching the 'Biological Parent Tag' or 'Guardian Tag'. The address for each parent identified above will be extracted as follow:
Addresses will be excluded from the report if the 'Excl Addr Coll' checkbox is ticked on the 'Addresses & Comm. Rules' tab in TASS.web Student Admin > Student Records > Student Information > Students. |
Address Tokens
The Address Collection (Aus) program uses the following two Address Token modes for extracting the address data:
Tokenised Addresses (Addresses with Address Validation Enabled) | ‘Tokinised Addresses’ are addresses that have been tokenised and validated using the Address Validation API. To tokenise an address, you can either: Use TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Parent Information > Parents on the ‘Address’ Tab. Start typing the parent address into the magnifying glass field (below the Parent Name field). Click on the correct address when it appears in the pick list. The address data will automatically populate the required fields, and the ‘View Address Tokens’ icon will appear in the links column. Click this icon to display more information. or Use the TASS.web System Admin > Utilities > Bulk Address Validation to tokenise and review multiple address records. For more information on Tokinised Addresses, refer to the ‘With Address Validation Enabled’ section of the Parents article. | ||||||
Non-Tokenised Addresses (Addresses with Address Validation Disabled) | ‘Non-Tokinised Addresses’ are addresses that have not been verified using the using the Address Validation API. For non-tokenised addresses, the export file is heavily dependent on your parent address records that are maintained using TASS.web Student Admin > Parent Records > Parent Information > Parents conforming to the following:
For more information, refer to the ‘With Address Validation Disabled’ section of the Parents article. |
General Tab
When you open the Address Collection (Aus) program, the ‘General' Tab will appear.
From the ‘General’ tab, you can select ‘Use Previously Saved Configurations’ from the drop-down list or leave the selection blank to create a new report configuration.
Configurations can be saved by entering a Configuration name into the ‘Save this Configuration as' field on the 'Process’ tab.
Currently, there is no option to delete or rename a saved configuration in this program area.
Click ‘Next’ to continue.
After clicking next, a more detailed version of the ‘General’ tab will appear with additional fields.
Fields on the 'General' tab can be used as selection criteria to filter the data to be included in the extract. The fields displayed are similar to those found in TASS.web Student Admin > Student Records > Student Information > Students.
Filter Field | Details |
|---|---|
Year Levels | Use the 'Year Group' drop-down list to highlight the relevant 'Year Groups' to include in your export file. DoE requires students in early childhood education programs (referred to as Year 1 minus 2) to be excluded from the submission. Data is only to be submitted for 'Year Groups' '0' to '12'. At your school, 'Year Group' '0' could be 'P' or 'K' (as this is school definable) in TASS.web. Refer to SchoolsHub for more information. Hold down the 'Shift' key to enable a range selection, and hold down the 'Ctrl' key to allow individual selection of additional fields. |
Date of Entry | Use the ‘Date of Entry’ field to include all students who were enrolled on the collection start date in the report by setting the date range picker to ‘less than’ the collection start date. |
Campus | Use the ‘Campus’ field to select the campus to be included in your report. Ensure the campus selected is the same campus the Location AGEID recorded on the 'Location Details' tab. DoE requires Distance Education students to be excluded from the submission. Refer to SchoolsHub for more information. To cross-check your Distance Education student data against your Campus data, you can run the Details Listing and highlight ‘Distance Ed’ and ‘Campus’ in the Report Options > ‘Additional Fields’ section. |
FFPOS (Full-fee paying overseas students) | Use the ‘FFPOS’ field to ‘No’ to exclude ‘Full-fee paying overseas students’ from your report. When ‘No’ is selected for the FFPOS filter field, students with Null in this field on their student record will also be included in the export, as will students who have ‘No’. When ‘Yes’ is selected for the FFPOS filter field, only students who have ‘Yes’ in this field on their student record will be included. DoE requires full-fee-paying overseas students (international students who do not attract Australian Government recurrent funding) to be excluded from the submission. Refer to SchoolsHub for more information. To check FFPOS student data, you can run the Details Listing and highlight ‘FFPOS’ and ‘Residency Status’ in Report Options > ‘Additional Fields’ section. |
User Defined and Billing Tabs
Fields from the 'User Defined' and 'Billing' tabs can be used as additional selection criteria to filter the data that will be included in the extract.
Location Details Tab
DoE uses the information in the 'Location Details' tab to identify the school.
Fields that require further explanation | |
|---|---|
