MSA Client End of Year Instructions

The following document will guide the user through the End of Year procedure for MSA Client.

...

(tick) When should I run my End of Year?
The MSA Client End of Year process is recommended after the school year ends and prior to the Point of Sale End of Year rollover.

(tick) Do I need to be running run a particular version to perform an End of Year?
The latest version is required. It will automatically be upgraded for Cloud customers. OnPremise customers can upgrade using the yellow star in the lower right of the Franklin/MSAClient programs.

(tick) Are there any other considerations for running an End of Year?
It is normal to see critical alerts once the End of Year process has been completed.  This occurs because the system's Scheduled Jobs have not yet been completed for the new database.  The critical alerts will clear once the scheduled jobs have been completed (typically at midnight), or you may choose to manually run Scheduled Jobs after you have completed the end of year process.

 The end of year process for MSA Client will perform all of the following actions:

  • All students will be deleted upon End of Year to allow a clean import for the year’s database and will then clear information for the upcoming year's database.  You must check the box verifying you have read the end-of-year instructions. Note that there is no undo available once these processes have been completed. Click Ok.

  • You will see a series of processes run while End of Year attempts to complete. Often you will be presented with open connections that need to be closed. Select all open connections and connect exclusively to proceed. Sometimes you’ll need to do this selection twice for different connectivity that may still be open.
