Multiple claim – this Module/Competency has been claimed previously

This error will occur where:

1. The student has already successfully completed the same unit of competency/module regardless of whether it was claimed under a subsidised program; and/or

2. A change is reported to an existing VET activity data record (i.e. amendment to training Activity start and/or Activity end dates, Outcome identifier, etc.) that has already been paid/reported under an agreement. When VET activity data is changed by a SAS, the system identifies the unit of competency/module as being claimed twice. This is known as a “false multiple”.

   • Note: We refer to these as Data Correction

To fix:

• Check supporting_details_2 column on validation report for information on what has previously been reporting for the error

• Apply any Credit Transfers (60) wherever possible

• If you cannot report the unit as a credit transfer due to insufficient evidence, the unit of competency/module should be reported as fee-for-service

• If believed to be a false multiple, note as Data Correction on the spreadsheet and wait 3-4 reports to see if it clears on its own

  • If the original record is in the current financial year a false multiple will rectify itself, however payment will not be reinstated until the following month (if applicable).

  • If the VET activity data falls outside of the current financial year, the false multiple error will not clear and will remain on the Validation Report. Will need to be reported as fee-for-service or contact DESBT

• For any exceptions to this funding rule, send an email along with supporting documentation to contractmanagement@desbt.qld.gov.au.

State funding not approved – Previously held qualification

This error will occur when:

• Certificate 3 Guarantee - if the student already holds a Certificate III or higher-level qualification.

• Higher Level Skills – if the student already holds a Certificate IV or higher-level qualification.

Having previously completed a qualification in most instances deems the student ineligible for funding. Exemptions include:

• Completed in school

• Strategix accidentally reported a completion date, and has since corrected this (student only completed the qualification once)

How do I fix it?

• If the student is ineligible for further Government funding, remove the fund source code and the agreement number and report the training and assessment as fee-for service.

• If you believe the student is eligible for an exception to the eligibility criteria of the funding program, send an email along with supporting documentation to your Contract Manager at contractmanagement@desbt.qld.gov.au.
