5 Manage BCA CPD Submissions

Use Compliance > Reporting periods to review current and previous BCA CPD reporting periods, submission attempts, submitted snapshots, and reports that require resubmission.

Each reporting period keeps the latest status for each reporting project and preserves its submission history.

View reporting periods

Go to Compliance > Reporting periods.

The list shows the latest state for each project and reporting period. Use the project, period, and status filters to find a report. Reporting periods are shown with the newest period first by default.

Depending on the report, you can review:

  • Reporting period and project
  • Current status
  • Submitted date or latest attempt
  • Submitted by
  • BCA reference number, when available
  • Available actions

Your list and record counts include only projects you have permission to view.

Understand reporting statuses

A reporting period may show:

  • Needs attention: Blocking project, member, or attendance issues must be resolved.
  • Ready to submit: The latest validation found no blockers.
  • Submitting: The submission is being prepared, sent, or processed.
  • Submitted: The submission completed successfully and a snapshot was saved.
  • Failed: The submission or external processing did not complete successfully.
  • Resubmission required: BCA-relevant source data changed after a successful submission.

A failed submission is different from a readiness issue. Open the result to see whether you need to correct source data, retry, or contact support.

View submission history

Open a reporting-period row to review its submission attempts.

The history preserves available information for each attempt, including:

  • Attempt or submission version
  • Initiated by
  • Started and completed time
  • Result
  • External response reference, when available
  • Relationship to an earlier submission or resubmission

A new attempt does not remove an earlier attempt. Previous results remain available for audit and follow-up.

View a submitted snapshot

For a successful submission, select View submitted snapshot.

The snapshot contains the project, member, and attendance data saved when that submission succeeded. It also shows the available submitted date, submitted user, reference number, and submission version.

A submitted snapshot is permanent for that version. Later changes to source data do not change the snapshot.

Sensitive data in a snapshot remains subject to the same masking and access permissions as other member data.

Manage a failed submission

Open a failed reporting period or attempt to review Failure Details.

Review the error message, affected records, and recommended action. Depending on the issue, you may be able to:

  • Open the affected project.
  • Open the affected member.
  • Open the affected attendance record.
  • Retry the submission.
  • Contact support.

A retry uses the latest reporting data and runs validation again. If the report now has blockers, resolve them before retrying.

If a retry is already processing, wait for its current status instead of starting another attempt.

Review changes after submission

GoBuid compares current reporting source data with the latest successful submitted snapshot.

When a BCA-relevant change requires another submission, the report is marked Resubmission required. Open the report to review the Change Summary, which may include:

  • Project reporting data updated
  • Members added, updated, or removed
  • Attendance records added, updated, or deleted

Select a summary row to review available before-and-after details and open the related source record.

Changes that do not affect BCA reporting do not trigger Resubmission required. The previously submitted snapshot remains unchanged.

Prepare a resubmission

To prepare another submission:

  1. Open the reporting period marked Resubmission required.
  2. Review the Change Summary and available details.
  3. Select Prepare resubmission.
  4. Resolve any new blockers found during validation.
  5. Review the latest submission data.
  6. Confirm and submit the report again.

The resubmission follows the same preview, confirmation, and progress flow as the original submission.

When it succeeds, GoBuid creates a new submitted snapshot and version. Earlier snapshots and attempts remain available.

Submit a historical period

An available historical reporting period can be submitted for the first time.

Open the historical period, resolve any blockers, and continue to Review & Submit when it is ready. A first submission for a historical period is treated as an initial submission, not a resubmission.

Available periods and any submission timing rules depend on your company’s BCA CPD Reporting setup.
