1.    Open the Regulatory Reporting window.

2.    In the Regulatory Forms box in the header, select the IPEDS Outcome Measures Report.

3.    In the Snapshots drop-down list, select the Snapshot Date for the data that you have just created.

4.    Your Outcome Measures Data appears in the Report tab. Totals are in the bottom row.

 

When you are satisfied that the numbers in all of the Outcome Measures reports are accurate for reporting to NCES, then you can do one of the following:

1.    Manually enter the Outcome Measures numbers on the IPEDS website.

a.    Print the final Outcome Measures Report.

b.    Go to the NCES website and type the numbers into their report interface.

2.    Import a file on the NCES website that contains your numbers.

a.    Select the Web Import tab.

b.    Click the Create the Web Import File button.

c.     Accept the path defaulted in the Web Import File Path prompt that is displayed. Click the OK button.

d.    If the file already exists, you get a message asking if you wish to continue. Click Yes.

e.    The result you see will be similar to the following:

f.     Log in at https://surveys.nces.ed.gov/ipeds/ and follow the instructions on the website to import the IPEDS Outcome Measures Report file that you have created within J1.

 

If you wish, you can modify any of the IPEDS reports provided by default on the Report tab of the Regulatory Reporting window.

1.    Open the Regulatory Reporting window.

2.    Click the Report tab.

3.    Click the Customize button, and click OK to the message that is displayed.

4.    Once the report opens, immediately choose File > Save As and add your initials or some other identifier to the end of the report name. This addition keeps your changes from being overwritten the next time the Customize button is clicked.

5.    Note that the reports are based on views and that a level of sophistication is needed to make major changes to these reports.

 

Modifying the Web Import File requires multiple steps.

1.    First, you must customize the Original J1 query d_q_ir_ipeds_ef1_v as described above.

2.    The query selects a View that returns the Key Value Pairs needed so that you can import data when you are logged in to the IPEDS website.

3.    If you wish to change the View, you must rename the View and then have your customized "d_q_ir_ipeds_ef1_v_uhe" query reference your renamed View.

4.    If you make changes, be sure that you still maintain the argument and output of the query.
