Import Result Notes Breakdown
The following image is an example of the Nutrikids Scanning Bridge Application Import Results, followed by a breakdown of each reason (note) as to why an application may not have imported successfully.
Newly added application | This indicates a new application was added to Nutrikids. This includes a new application number which is indicated in the NUTRIKIDS app ID column near the left of the report. |
Application (#) was successfully updated! | This indicates a previously entered application in Nutrikids has been updated with new application information. |
Application Conflict - Students are Directly Certified. | This indicates one or more students on the application are already noted as DC in the Nutrikids system. In this instance, if there are additional non-DC students on the MSA application, it’s recommended they manually apply for the needed extensions in Nutrikids. |
Student(s) on NUTRIKIDS App#() are not listed | This indicates a student is listed on an existing application in Nutrikids who isn’t listed in the incoming MSA application. Sometimes the application will need manual attention in Nutrikids, MSA Client, or both. Contacting the parent may help determine the best course of action. |
Application type could not be determined | This indicates a mismatch between the public assistance settings on the MSA website and the public assistance settings in MSA Client. If you see this note please correct the settings or call MySchoolApps Support. |
Printing Letters In Nutrikids
Printing MSA application result letters is completed in Nutrikids exactly the same way as it usually is for regular applications. MSA application letters will appear under the “Administrator” account regardless of which Nutrikids user imported the applications.
