Permission to Access L0HSupport
Overview
Level 0 Historical (L0H) is an online application hosted by the Level 2 (L2) Statewide data warehouse. L0H is used to update a select subset of data elements fromprior school yearsonly. These data elements come from student data domains (demographics, enrollment, programs and assessments) and staff data (staff evaluation).
Level 0 Historical should not be confused with the “Level 0” application, which is used by many districts and schools to load and validatecurrentschool year data being sent to their RIC/Big 5 CSD for uploading to the NYSED SIRS statewide data warehouse.
Logging in to L0H
Only authorized users may log in on the. Each user's logon determines what subset of records may be accessed, whether at the L1, LEA or school level. When entering a User ID and password, the user is authenticated against the NYSED LDAP (secure accounts directory), with application-specific permissions determined bySEDDAS. (This is the sameSEDDASUID and password used for single sign-on to many of the NYSED applications available through thePortal.
Granting Access and Delegating Rights to the L0H application using SEDDAS
The L0H application is one of many applications made available through the State Education Department Delegated Account System (SEDDAS).
Access to L0H must be granted according to the rules set forth inSEDDASfor each institution type. Access is initially granted by an institution's Delegated Administrator (DA) for all school types* other than public districts. At the public schooldistrictlevel, the "executive DA" is called a Super DA (school superintendent), who may then create other DAs or Entitlement Administrators (EAs) at the school level.
*Charter schools, BOCES and RICs have no "Super DA", simply a primary DA (typically a school principal or CEO).
Please refer to theSEDDAS home pagefor complete details.
L0H Support
Allreport- and data-related questionsshould first be directed to your regional L1 RIC or Big 5 CSD data center. When inquiring, you may wish to ask for "State data warehousing support for Level 0 Historical". L0H-specific contacts may be listed in the section of the "RIC/Big 5 Contacts" directory under your L1 data center (you should find the RIC/Big 5 Contacts link located near the bottom of the left-hand navigation bar on all NYSED IRS Web pages).
For data-related issues, if your L1 support cannot directly resolve an issue, they should not generally ask you to contact NYSED directly; for fastest resolution they should instead escalate issues on your behalf by submitting them directly to the L0H vendor support team using our shared NYSED IssueTracker troubleshooting application.
The only exception to this practice should be when the problem is not data-related, but rather an account/access issue: If you have issues with yourpermission level or account accessto the L0H, you should still first ask your L1 support, as they manage the local-to-NYSED connections. If they cannot resolve an account-related issue, they may ask you to contact NYSED's SEDDAS help desk.
