Overview of changes included in this hotfix package

NZQA have recently included Assessment Opportunities in their Standards Import file

An update to the Synergetic NZQA Standards Import functionality to handle this change was released recently (Version 70.20.4 and later) and this has been found to have an issue.

NZQA require that where a Standard does not have an Assessment Opportunity, that this is indicated by the value being a Null.  Currently these are being set to 0 and this is causing errors to be reported.

This issue is fixed by running the below script against NZ instances of Synergetic.


Obtaining and applying the hotfix

We have created a SQL fix for v70 release of Synergetic. 

1) Download the fix from the link below :

2) Open and run the fix against your Synergetic Database.

3) Once the fix has run successfully, your system should be updated and ready to re-import the latest NZQA Standards file. 

4) Re-import the latest NZQA Standards file via the NZQA tab of Students > Student Data Import/Export...

    This must be done to fix the Assessment Opportunities data in your system.

5) The issue should now be resolved.

6) You can run this SQL to confirm the issue is repaired:

Code Block
languagesql
titleCount Assessment Opportunities
select AssessmentOpportunities, count(*)
from SubjectAssessmentNCEAStandards 
where fileyear = 2023
group by AssessmentOpportunities


There should be no AssessmentOpportunities counted for 0.
