MSDS through MiDataHub
The Michigan Data Hub (MiDataHub) supports the export of data from a MiDataHub district database (ODS) to the XML format currently supported by CEPI. The MSDS functionality in MiDataHub includes data quality alerts, an MSDS error check process, a growing library of MSDS reports, XML file extraction process for all MSDS collections, and a comparison tool to compare MiDataHub XML extracts to native SIS extracts. Documentation and further details can be found in the MSDS Best Practices Guide link below.
