Unfortunately the ESFA's response was less than helpful on this. My first response from them was "You need at least one employment status for the learner when I checked your data submission you had a duplicate consecutive employment status. You will need to remove one of the employment status to clear the error, if you are having difficulties removing one of the employment status please contact your MIS direct." Followed by this after i made them aware a status had to be in place on each MIS system. "It is outside our remit regarding how to record the employment statuses on your 2 separate MIS for your learner. Please contact your MIS providers for further information. Can both be recorded with the same date status applies (earliest date) on the MIS you use?" In the end we simply withdrew them off our first MIS system and claimed no funding from day one as it was part of the same month. Probably not much help to you. Best of luck.

To follow on from this then Steve. For arguments sake if we were to withdraw the learner as they only failed 2 of 3 elements (as we wouldn't be able to claim completion), but this has now surpassed the R14 submission deadline, what implications would this have as the actual end date would be in the previous academic year? Example: Learner actual end date 25/07/2024 Attempted elements 1 and 2 on 25/10/2024. 3rd element was planned for 10/11/2024. Learner withdrew and did not wish to continue, therefore we process as withdrawal and not completed without achievement. This however would show as too late for previous year data. Would this simply be something we would need to justify?

I do appreciate the response Steve. I just weren't sure how this is perceived considering both result in a fail. It does make sense that the fact the learner attempted is the evidence we need to set this as completion status 2 which is exactly how i have recorded them. Thanks for clarifying though should we have any in the future that simply do not attempt but receive a fail. Cheers
