Ed FI - send data for “individual students” and/or for a “processing list” of students
In the old XML days, we had the ability to extract data for “individual students” and for a “processing list” of students. Clearly you all had previously recognized the need for us to have this option.
In our current Ed Fi world, we do not have these options. We can limit the sending of data based on "entity" or based on certain Ed Fi tables. But as we get closer to the end of a submission or collection, it is SO MUCH MORE EFFICIENT and allows us MORE CONTROL or PRECISION, if we can only send the data we want to send i.e. all the table data for a list of students that have had data corrected.
Currenly in our Ed Fi world, the data send task processes thru all students even ones I know do NOT have any changes or corrections … I lose about 3 hours waiting on my send data task to complete … when I only need to send data for a few students that are causing me fatal errors … and I believe it would run MUCH FASTER it if it was only sending data for students that we have made corrections rather than combing thru all 14,000 of our students to see if they had any data changed.
PLEASE consider getting this worked in somehow.

I see in Ed Fi where we can send a single student or range by the Namekey, but that is tedious to do one at a time. Can we have the same options as the Individual/By Individual button in some report areas, or as the Selected Students acts in Data Mining?
