ADMW3350 - Student USI Details

Table of Contents


USI Overview

A Unique Student Indicator (USI) is a 10 character identifier which may contain digits (2-9) and alpha characters (excluding I and O). This identifier is allocated to a VET student to allow them to obtain a comprehensive online transcript of all their VET achievements. An institution can request a new USI on behalf of a student or may verify a student's existing USI.

The USI for a student is stored in the PERSON_USI table and may be viewed in ADMW3350. For students without a USI verified by or retrieved from the USI office, their details are temporarily stored in the USI_PERSONAL_DETAIL table and are included in a USI verification or request. Once a USI for the student is verified or retrieved, the records are deleted from the USI_PERSONAL_DETAIL table and a USI record is created in the PERSON_USI table for the student.

Callista USI functionality allows:

Only USI values that are in the PERSON_USI table are included in government submission files. i.e. Those verified by or retrieved from the USI office.

Xml failed schema validation - This may appear in the History Log table when data has been submitted in the incorrect format. If clients see this error, they should log a calipso with an example of the data as it appears in the USI_PERSONAL_DETAIL table.

A USI configuration error has occurred. Contact System Administrator - This error can occur for two reasons: a). The configuration of the Callista USI application has not be set up correctly, or b). An exception has been raised in the java application code leading to failure to submit the data to the web service.
In both scenarios, administrators should check the s_error_log for the stack trace of the java execution. Based on the exceptions raised, they should either investigate issues with the s_usi_conf entries and server configuration (as detailed in the USI information found at wiki.callista.com.au/display/CRC), or log a calipso if the exception appears to be a java application code issue.
