WISEdata Portal (WDP) and Ed-Fi Release Notes
WISEdata Portal: Modify Course Titles and Descriptions
When the Roster: Courses export was downloaded as an .xls file, a special character was appearing in the Excel file (—) in places where a long dash (—) was typed into a course title or description (e.g., Health Care Sciences—School-based Enterprise was displaying as Health Care Sciences — School-based Enterprise).
The file type was adjusted, and the export now reads legibly.
WISEdata Portal: Alerts Screen Ack/Unack Buttons
The ‘Acknowledge’/’Unacknowledge’ buttons on the WISEdata Portal Alerts screen were refreshing the screen content, but the buttons were not switching status once clicked. This bug has been fixed, and the buttons are correctly switching status once clicked to align with screen content.

WISEid and WISEstaff Release Notes
WISEid/WISEstaff Updates
WISEid: User Guide updates
The Advanced Search Feature within the WISEid User Guide has been published. New for the 2024-25 school year, users can now refine the results of the WISEid Person Search with an Advanced Search. You can only reach the Advanced Search tool by conducting a standard Person Search first.
The Match Review section of the WISEID User Guide has also been updated. Only records uploaded without a WISEid in a person file upload are put through a match review process. The match review process is done to try and find an existing, matching WISEid.

The WISEid Files and Templates webpage has also been updated for the 2024-25 school year.
