Publish the records in this order.
From Edval App:
Publish Student
Before doing the Publish Student synching, make sure to set up the PosiEd Value Mapping (custom settings) for the LISS Grade Level values and Gender field automation. See the file below for your reference.
Publish Teachers
Before doing the Publish Teacher, make sure the etz file for Teachers from Edval has the Email and Staff IDs field populated. These two should be unique. This is one of the criteria for the linking of the Users to the Employee Role records. You also need to have the Users created first before doing the Publish Teacher
Workaround: You can also turn off the Employee Role triggered flow before publishing, and then turn it On again after publishing.
You need to first create the User records before doing the Publish Teacher
Note: The Staff users should have a correct profile license for the Calendar access. The Chatter Free license is a non-calendar license.
Publish Rooms/Assets
Publish Bell times/Time Block
Before doing the Publish Bell Time, we need to add the complete Period values.
Make sure TTStructure records are set correctly. (Check how many TTStructure is linked to the School account).
If the TTStructure is not set up correctly, the PPublish Bell time will be affected. There will be missing bell time records after synching.

These records must be imported into the Org before the Publish process. Please refer to the instructions in the link below.
After importing the necessary records into the Org, you can begin the publishing process.
Publish the data sets in the order shown below. Publish each item separately and allow a few minutes before publishing the next item. This is to ensure that the processing of the data that was transferred is complete before the next set of data is sent.
From Edval App:
Publish Student
Before doing the Publish Student synching, make sure to set up the PosiEd Value Mapping (custom settings) for the LISS Grade Level values and Gender field automation. See the file below for your reference.

This is one of the criteria for the linking of the Users to the Employee Role records. You also need to have the Users created first before doing the Publish Teacher
Workaround: You can also turn off the Employee Role triggered flow before publishing, and then turn it On again after publishing.
You
have the option to turn off the Employee role and create a User instead. The User created should follow the following criteria:
The Profile should be the School Personnel.
The role has been set.
Permission Set Group should be added based on the role.
The user should be added to his/her designated School Public group.
Employee Role triggered flow includes the creation of the Users and will automatically link to the Employee Role records. The User will have a Profile entered and specified in the Default Profile ID field of the custom settings.
Note: The Staff users should have a correct profile license for the Calendar access. The Chatter Free license is a non-calendar license.
