Manage Test Status Requests
In the normal flow of a test opportunity, a student takes the test in TDS and then submits it. Next, TDS forwards the test for scoring, and then the test scores are reported in CRS.
Test status requests are a way of interrupting this normal flow. A student may want to retake a test or have another test opportunity. A test administrator may want to invalidate a test. This section describes how you view, create, and approve test status requests.
Warning:
Timing of Requests Submit requests at least one day prior to the end of a test window so that students can complete their test opportunity or data entry can be completed.
The status of a request can change throughout its life cycle. Table 5 lists the valid combinations of test status requests and test statuses. For example, you can invalidate a test that is in one of the following statuses: completed, denied, expired, paused, reported, scored, or submitted.
