End a Non-NRS Student History Item

Updated 2/25/26

This article explains how to edit or remove a non-NRS history item when the tag no longer applies to a student.

NOTE: The non-NRS tag remains in effect for the entire Contact Hours year (May 1–April 30) or NRS Program year (July 1–June 30), even if the history item is ended mid-year.

When a new contact year or program year begins, the non-NRS tag will continue to apply unless the history item has been:

• edited to include an End date in a prior contact or program year, or

• removed entirely from the student record.

Should I edit or remove a history row?

• EDIT the most recent non-NRS row when the Effective Date was in a PRIOR contact/NRS program year and there is no End Date.
• REMOVE the most recent non-NRS row when the Effective Date was in the CURRENT contact/NRS program year.

EDIT a non-NRS history row by adding an End Date

IMPORTANT: Do not change the Effective Date. Instead, add an End Date to the history row.

You can edit non-NRS history items for shared students. It doesn't matter if the history row was added by your program or another.

1. From the Students tab, choose the name of the desired student. Go to the History tab.
2. From the History Group menu, choose Program - NRS. Matching history rows will appear.
3. Select the most recent Non-NRS row. In the edit screen that appears, add the appropriate End Date. Use 4/30/XX for the last day of the last Contact Hours year, or 6/30/xx for the last day of the last NRS Program year. Email us at [e-mail] for help choosing the correct date.
4. Click Save Changes

REMOVE a non-NRS history row when the history item was created in the CURRENT reporting year

Note: you cannot remove (delete) a non-NRS history item created by another site. We recommend that you contact the program that created the history item and ask them to remove the history row.

1. From the Students tab, choose the name of the desired student. Go to the History tab.
2. From the History Group menu, choose Program - NRS. Matching history rows will appear.
3. Select the most recent Non-NRS row. In the Edit screen that appears, click the Remove this History link* and follow the prompts.

*If the Remove this History link is not visible, contact the ABE program that created the history item. Ask them to remove the non-NRS history item.
