School Year and Semester Schema Audit

Source: scool_view2.sql Tables found: 73

Result

The schema is not fully fixed.

Required financial tables

Confirmed with school_year:

  • payment_notification_logs
  • payment_transactions
  • reimbursement_batch_items

Absent from this dump and therefore not verifiable:

  • discount_usages
  • event_charges
  • invoice_event
  • payment_error

School-year defects

  • archived_paypal_transactions.school_year is VARCHAR(20) instead of VARCHAR(9).
  • Tables with school_year but no direct school-year index:
  • archived_paypal_transactions
  • class_progress_reports
  • exams
  • missing_score_overrides
  • payments
  • placement_batches
  • print_requests
  • report_card_acknowledgements
  • semester_scores
  • staff_attendance
  • teacher_attendance_data
  • whatsapp_group_links

Tables where semester should be removed

  • badge_print_logs
  • classes
  • contactus
  • emergency_contacts
  • inventory_items
  • invoice_students_list
  • ip_attempts
  • notification_recipients
  • notifications
  • parents
  • support_requests
  • user_notifications
  • whatsapp_group_links

Tables requiring business-rule confirmation before removing semester

  • archived_paypal_transactions
  • discount_vouchers
  • payment_transactions
  • reimbursement_batch_items
  • scan_log

Notes

semester should remain on semester-owned academic and operational records such as exams, quizzes, grades, class sections, attendance, semester reports, and semester-specific charges or payments.

Child tables should not duplicate semester when it can be obtained reliably through their parent record, unless immutable historical snapshots are an explicit requirement.
