Reasons an enrolment is not in the AVETMISS export files

There are a few rules that will stop an enrolment from being exported in the AVETMISS export files which are listed below.

Firstly, there are two different types of AVETMISS exports in the system that are:

  1. National Export – this is to export files to submit to NCVER
  2. State Export – this allows you to select a specific State and the files will be exported to meet the state level rules for submission to that State


Reason’s that an enrolment will not be in the National Export

  1. The student is not flagged as AVETMISS. How to check this? Go to the student dashboard and select the Edit Student icon and see if the AVETMISS tick box is selected or not?

  2. Enrolment is not flagged as Include in National Export. How to check this? Open the Enrolment Dashboard and go to AVETMISS Settings and see if this is selected.

  3. Result dates for the subjects linked to the enrolment do not fall within the calendar year you selected for the export. How to check this? Open the Enrolment Dashboard > Results & Progress Tile > Training Plan and Results screen. Then look at each subject and its result date, if there are none within the calendar year you selected that is why and you may need to update the result date/s where needed. If you don’t remember or are unsure what calendar year you selected for the export, go to the main menu for Compliance > AVETMISS Export History screen. From the list, look for the last export you did and in the Filters column it will show you the calendar year you selected.

  6. Enrolment is flagged as cancelled. How to check this? Open the Enrolment Dashboard and in the Enrolment Profile tile see if the icon for Cancelled is grey or red? If it is red, then it is cancelled. IMPORTANT: this is the only setting that tells the system that the enrolment is cancelled.
