MCCCD IE Office - IRIS Load Schedule
IRIS Loading Summary
There are four main loading periods of the Institutional Research Information System (IRIS) throughout the year.

Each load is an extract of MCCCD's RDS System performed by ITS.

1. Weekly (WK) loads are performed on Saturday evening/Sunday Mornings weekly.

2. Beginning of Term (BT) loads are performed for spring and fall terms at the end of the first full week of classes.  BT only includes data for the current term; no future/past terms are included in this load.

3. 45th Day (45) loads are an extract performed on the evening of 45th day for spring or fall term.  45th includes the loading of the FTSE_Details table with FTSE_Type_Code of 'B' or basic classes.

4. End of Term (ET) loads are an extract on approximately the fifth Saturday after the end of a term.  The ET load updates the term from one past year through the term just ended.(see notes below)

The other significant load is at the end of the Fiscal Year. Year-end loads are an extract performed at the end of the academic year.  The FTSE_Details table is updated with FTSE_Type_Code of 'O' or 'S' or Open Entry or Short term classes.  There is no YE snap shot.
