Run Details

This job is usually run in conjunction with STAJ0020, STAJ0040, STAJ0050, STAJ0060, and STAJ0080.

The job is run to create an extract file, containing records which provide a "profile" of the student (e.g. date of birth, sex, home location, ethnicity, educational background).The file is created in accordance with the DEST file specification, for loading into DESTPAC and is only created for submissions 1 and 2.

All data is sourced from the GOVT_STUDENT_ENROLMENT table.

These records are stored in the institution specific EN file (with which statistics specialists will be familiar), in a directory specified by the 'KEEP' environment variable. This is a secure directory which users cannot (and do not need to) access.

The process 'Copy Extract Files From Secure Area' (STAJ0120) allows the EN file to be copied from the 'KEEP' directory to an accessible directory, specified by the 'USER' environment variable (refer to your system administrator).
