OSSE Staff Feed and Mapping Updates

Updates have been made to the OSSE staff feed configuration to improve role and position mapping for special education staff.

What's New

  • Related Service Provider role mapping — Staff members sent through the feed with the "Related Service Provider" role are now automatically assigned the appropriate "Related Service Providers – Part B" permissions.

  • Interpreter/Translation Provider mapping — Staff sent with the "Special Education Support Staff, Interpreter" position are now correctly mapped to the "Translation Provider" role and granted the corresponding Part B access.

  • ESY LEA Viewer support — The system now fully supports the "ESY LEA Viewer" position received through the staff feed. Access is granted when the position is included in the feed and automatically removed when it is no longer sent, supporting time-limited ESY (Extended School Year) assignments.
