This is an old revision of the document!
NOTE: This step must be performed by an administrator with access to TxEIS Discipline.
TxEIS Discipline > Maintenance > Referrals
The Referrals page in TxEIS Discipline allows a designated discipline approver to review discipline referrals entered in TeacherPortal and take appropriate action (i.e., review or create an incident record). These referrals may be entered by teachers or other employees who have authorization to enter referrals, such as a bus driver.
NOTE:
- You can only view referrals if you are designated as a discipline approver (i.e., the Discipline Approver field is selected on TxEIS Registration > Maintenance > Campus Profile > Campus Information Maintenance > Principal/Counselor).
- All discipline approvers can view all referrals for the campus.
❏ Discipline approvers who are set up to receive email notification of discipline referrals will receive an email message whenever an applicable referral is submitted from TeacherPortal.
The email message informs the approver that a referral has been submitted from TeacherPortal, but does not contain detailed information about the incident. The approver must log on to the TxEIS Discipline application to view the complete information.
An approver who does not receive an email notification can also access referrals by logging on to TxEIS Discipline; the email message is not required.
When you first access the page, no data is displayed.
❏ To retrieve a list of referrals, use the Admin Number or Admin Name autosuggest field to retrieve an administrator by ID or name.
❏ You can limit the referrals list by specifying grade level, name, or date ranges, or a particular referral status, using one or more of these optional fields. Or, leave all of these fields blank to retrieve all referrals for the campus:
| From/To Grade Level | Campus default values are displayed. If needed, you can clear these fields, or select other beginning and ending grade levels for the range of grade levels you want to retrieve. |
|---|---|
| From/To Name Range | Type the range of last names you want to retrieve (e.g., AA-MC). |
| From/To Name Incident Date | Type the beginning and ending dates to see referrals for a specific range of dates. |
| Status | Select Pending, Reviewed, and/or Completed to review only referrals with a specific status (or more than one specific status) |
❏ Click Retrieve.
The referrals are retrieved according to the criteria specified, sorted by status.
| Status | The Status field displays the current status of the referral:
