One (1) month lockdown for entering time, tests

Updated 7/28/25

SiD limits how far back in time users can add, edit, or delete student attendance hours or tests. The data entry limit is called the 1 month lockdown.

Tests and NRS hours can be managed for the current month and one month prior. The 1 month lockdown period changes on the first day of each month.

Examples:

  • In June, hours and tests can be added or changed if they are dated in June or May.
  • On July 1, hours and tests can be added or changed if they are dated in July or June.

The 1 month lockdown affects:

  • NRS contact, counseling, one-on-one, distance learning, and GED/HiSET testing hours. Non-NRS hours can be added, edited, or deleted without restriction.
  • NRS approved standardized tests, such as TABE, CASAS, and BEST Plus.

For help entering older time and tests, contact sidsupport@literacymn.org.

Time Limit Note 1: ​To preserve ABE data after it has been reported, SiD Support staff will not enter time or tests once the contact hour or NRS program year data has been submitted. 

  • Once Table A has been submitted, SiD Support won't add/edit/delete student time dated before May 1.
  • After the NRS Program year report has been submitted, SiD Support won't alter time or tests dated before July 1.

Time Limit Note 2: There is a 5-year software limit on entering any NRS or non-NRS tests. This limit cannot be overridden by users or SiD Support staff.
