PowerSchool ERP System Administration

User Procedures

The user will export the desired applicant data from the third-party system and transfer the imported files to their personal computer or shared network drive. After clicking the Load External Applicants icon on the Employee Information page, the user will be able to import files from their personal computer using the Windows Explorer window that displays from the load screen.

When processing is complete, a Confirmation window for saving the import data will display indicating whether Errors or Warning were found. The user should respond as follows:

  • Click Cancel if errors/warnings are found. The user should review the Load Summary report to identify the types of errors/warnings and determine if any changes can be made to eliminate them. After taking the necessary steps to correct the error/warning conditions, the user can re-run the import.

  • Click Process if the import is free of errors/warnings to save the records to the applicant tables in PowerSchool ERP.

An illustration of the Confirmation window and the list of messages that can display are provided in the Load Summary Report section.
