Functional Skills Component Aim

Created

None

Hi there, is there anyone who can give advice on setting up Functional Skills Level 2, we are getting R30 and R66 errors and that we must return APP CONTRACT TYPE. We are subcontracting to another Training Provider, also struggling to know where to add their UKPRN number, any ideas please?

You need to add a FAM record against the FS aims with the Apprenticeship Contract Type recorded, the same as for a programme aim. 

The Functional skills aims need to be set up with programme type as 25, and the relevant standard code recorded, exactly as on the programme and the vocational aim. That should resolve R30 and R66 (All funded component aims must have a corresponding programme aim with the same Programme type and Standard code).

There is a field at aim level called "Subcontracted or partnership UKPRN" where the subcontractor UKPRN should be entered.

Hi Becky

 

Thank you for the response. This is very helpful. Is that filed the same as the Franchising Partner field in the ILR tab in the learning aim?

I don't know for sure. We use EBS and it's not called that. However, there aren't any fields with  "Franchising" in the name in the current ILR spec, so I suspect it might be the correct field, it's just got an old name.  

I'd give it a go and see if it creates errors. If it doesn't then I'd submit a file, then check column AX "Sub contracted or partnership UKPRN" of the Apps Indicative report to see if it turns up.
