Outstanding Compliance Tasks on d6+ display important data validations in priority order. Attending to these tasks before exporting reduces repeated corrections and re-exports. They validate data more thoroughly than SA-SAMS itself or DBE Data Quality Tools, and include required EMIS checks for better data quality.

• Important tasks are shown in red. Tasks needing urgent attention before SA-SAMS export will flash in red.

How are tasks grouped?

Tasks are grouped into sections based on their effect on submissions:

• d6+ system setup required for all submissions

• SA-SAMS Module 17 — will prevent the required deployment

• SA-SAMS Error and omissions 16.19 validations visible to DBE

• Valistractor results and icons affected

• Manage school risks and complete data quality

What types of validations are included?

• Curriculum tasks — ensure everything is completed before printing report cards and submitting databases per term.

• SID (Severe and Profound Intellectual) — curriculum setup for Special Needs Schools, including learner classification, LURITS subject codes, and custom admin year-end promotion.

• Learner ages — flags ages outside the DBE age cohort to reduce audit checks and doubtful learner funding issues.

• Learner study permits — covers all legislative scenarios for immigrant learners.

• School logo — exported to SA-SAMS for printing and exporting of schedules and statistical reports.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to resolve every task before exporting?

Tasks shown in flashing red must be resolved before exporting to SA-SAMS. Other tasks are recommended corrections that will improve data quality and reduce re-submissions, but may not block the export.
