SUBJECT:   Incorrect Data on the ABAWD Tracking Screen in Time Limit Tracking                                                         
                                                                           
EFFECTIVE DATE:  Immediately                                               
CONTACT PERSON:  Herb Schwimmer (518) 457-5510                             
                                                                           
	Presently a fix program is being run on Production to correct a problem with the calculation of the ABAWD exempt/required code on Time Limit Tracking screen WTRK31.  This program will not complete running until sometime in the beginning of June 2001.  Since this program is recalculating the ABAWD exempt/required code, the code presently reflected on the ABAWD screen will be incorrect until the fix program completes running.

	Districts should ignore the ABAWD exempt/required code as it presently appears on screen WTRK31.  Notification will be sent to districts once the fix program has completed and the recalculation of the ABAWD exempt/required code is completed.
