Hi Paul,
Thank you for your feedback on Enter Learning Data, development of the service is ongoing and we're keen to hear from our users.
1 - Each academic year will only allow you to import files with a matching year in the filename. You can import a 24/25 file into the 24/25 year and then migrate the data to 25/26, or you can import a 25/26 file into the 25/26 year. We will look to include this in our published guidance.
2 - We will update our guidance on gov.uk (Enter learning data: using the service - GOV.UK) to include reference to recording learners who have completed their learning activities but have not yet completed their end point assessment. We will also review the wording in the 'Record an update' pages to make this clearer
3 & 4 - We're really interested to learn more about the impact of both of these points, we will contact you by email to take this forward.
Thanks
Lynne (Enter Learning Data team)

Entering Learning Data - Queries

Thought it might be useful to have all the ELD queries in one place, so please share your findings here:
1. ELD will only allow importing an XML file to 2025/26 if the file name includes 2526.
2. Recording gateways (1/8) isn't detailed in the guidance, but it's possible by selecting to record a programme completion with a blank achievement date, blank actual OTJ hours, and with the outcome not yet known.
3. The aim sequence number from your 2024/25 ILR will not be preserved in the 2025/26 ELD if your learner has multiple programme aims. Eg, in 2024/25 the first episode prior to a BIL will have aim sequence numbers 1 & 2 (Zprog & Z000 aims) and then 3 & 4 after returning from a BIL. But after migrating ILR data from 2024/25 to 2025/26 and using ELD to export R01, the indicative earnings report has reversed the aim sequence numbers with 1 & 2 now being attributed to the 2nd episode of learning (after returning from a BIL).
4. Carryover learners from 2024/25 are without a Software Supplier Aim Identifier in the R01 Apps Indicative Earnings report.
Points 3 & 4 above might complicate funding reconciliations and cross report comparisons.
