Custom Data Services: Finalsite Enrollment to Veracross Integration

Josh Fulton
  • Updated

Overview

Schools using Finalsite Enrollment for Admissions and Veracross for Enrollment may want to consider using the one-way Finalsite Enrollment to Veracross integration. This integration can be configured to send Finalsite Enrollment admissions data to Veracross, and saves time on tasks like manually exporting or importing data to create applicant records, updating records, or updating contact info in Veracross.

Please note that there is an additional charge for this integration. If you are interested in setting it up, please contact our Support Team to get started.

Admissions & Enrollment Process

Admissions

The Admissions Process is managed within Finalsite Enrollment, however, Veracross has the school build out their admissions process within Veracross so that the integration will work.

Enrollment: Which System Do I Use?

The Enrollment Process can be managed within Finalsite Enrollment with the integration, or it can be managed solely within Veracross. It depends what makes more sense to the Admin, and which product is easier for parents and Admins to use for Enrollment.

If your school would like to use Finalsite Enrollment for Enrollment, you can work with the Support Team to build a custom export of enrolled student data. Once the data has been pushed to Veracross, the school will need to update the statuses of NEW students to enrolled within the Veracross system. 

Important Integration Notes

  • Relationship data: The integration process establishes the relationship for the student, linking them as a child to their parents and as a sibling to their brothers and sisters. In other words, it only connects the student you import to their parents and siblings. The siblings and parents themselves are not connected to one another.

    For example, You import the following family:
    Agatha Miller (student)
    Margaret Miller (sister)
    Louis Miller (brother)
    Clarisa Boehmer (mother)
    Fredrick Miller (father)

    Upon Import, Agatha is connected as the child of Clarisa and Fredrick and the sibling of Louis and Margaret, but Louis and Margaret themselves are not connected as siblings, and, on the same thread, Clarisa and Fredrick are not connected to one another as spouses.

    For more information on relationship management, you can check out this Veracross article.

  • Ids: To ensure seamless integration across systems and avoid potential issues, it is crucial that IDs match consistently. Students must maintain the same ID in both Finalsite Enrollment and Veracross. This alignment of IDs between the two systems is essential for smooth data synchronization and to prevent any discrepancies or complications that might arise.
