          3. Search for AVETMISS Export Email

      Prepare

      While not strictly required it is recommended as it allows you to proactively complete your data integrity checks to ensure Learners meet the required criteria.  Only Learners that meet the required criteria will be reported to the Victorian Government. Therefore, Wisenet will export all Learners that:

      1. Have at least 1 Unit Enrolment that has:
        • Victorian contract (either Fee For Service or Funded)
        • The VSN Export Date falls within the Start and End Dates (eg. Next VSN Submission Date is 02/04/2018 then at least 1 Unit Enrolment must have a Start Date before or equal to 04/2018 and an End Date after or equal to 04/2018).
        • Outcome code is anything except
          • empty
          • 40 without specified actual hours
      2. Has a Course Enrolment that has
        • An Enrolment Status (is not an Application)
        • Linked to a Course Offer with For AVETMISS = True
        • Linked to a Course with VET Flag = Y
      3. And, the Learner meets one of the following age criteria:
        • Is aged 17 or younger on 1 January for the current year
        • Is aged 24 or younger on 1 January for the current year
      Quick Tip:

      You can use report #0495 to see which Learners will be reported for each month.

      You can also use report #0449 to review all Learner Numbers including VSN.

      Run Export

      Wisenet has a special arrangement with the government which automatically sends and receives student enrolment data to and from the government’s database via web-services. Specifically, this function automates:

      1. The export of the data to the government, and
      2. Allocates the VSN specified by the government to the relevant students via an import

      Export Errors

      After Submission

      After your export has been submitted there may still be errors.

      These errors descriptions and how to fix them can be found on the VSN Export Errors

      These can be fixed in two ways:

      1. Individually. Go into each individual record and amend the field. How to manually add / update VSN to a Learner
      2. Multiple. If there are many records with the same error these can potentially be fixed by performing a bulk update. How to Bulk Update
