IMPORTANT: SIMS 2009 March Upgrade

 SIMS Upgrades
Apr 212009
 

The SIMS 2009 March Main Release and FMS 6.116 are now available via SOLUS.

Schools who purchase the ScoMIS Upgrade Service will be contacted separately to arrange for ScoMIS to run the upgrade for you. For schools whose data is hosted by ScoMIS (Terminal Server Schools) the upgrade is due to be run over the weekend of 25/26 April. All other schools are advised to run the upgrade as soon as possible.

In addition, three SIMS patches have been released and will be applied as part of the upgrade:

Patch 13089 resolves an issue with the import and export of Key Stage and Foundation Stage Profile data from SIMS.net Assessment;
Patch 13070 resolves an issue with attendance letters being generated for pupils who are not on roll;
Patch 13094 makes changes to support the re-organisation of Bedfordshire / Cheshire Local Authorities and subsequent changes to the DCFS numbers of schools in that area. (This patch is being applied to ensure any CTFs received from those schools will import correctly.)

The SIMS 2009 March Main Release introduces major changes to the SIMS Home Page. Further information can be found at http://www4.devon.gov.uk/eal/scomis/password/PasswordExtra-Summer09.pdf
