A few examples of the data collection changes are the addition of the new Employee Leave Table and, restricting the Act 61 Tier I Table entries to the Superintendent and the CFO/Business Manager/Treasurer of the School District. The Class Table has Licensure Exception changes and has Personal Finance and a SPCED Class Overage Flag are added as well.
