Work out why an enrolled student has not synced to ManageBac+

The OpenApply and ManageBac+ sync runs every two to four hours through the Faria SyncHub. When a student does not appear, the cause is almost always their status, their academic year or a duplicate detail.

Check these in order

  1. Wait for the next syncData syncs every two to four hours. A student enrolled in the last few hours may simply not have synced yet.
  2. Check the status and yearOnly students marked Enrolled for the present academic year or earlier are created in ManageBac+. A student enrolled for next year will not sync until that year becomes current.
  3. Check for a duplicate email or Student IDEach enrolled student needs a unique email address and a unique Student ID in both systems. A clash stops the account being created.
  4. Check the year levels matchYear levels in OpenApply and ManageBac+ must match in number and order.
  5. Check the parent accountsParents of enrolled students must have activated OpenApply accounts so their email addresses are unique.
  6. Check both systems are on the same academic yearIf one system has rolled over and the other has not, students will not sync as expected.
