My nightly sync from Canvas to PowerSchool is not working. I have linked my categories between them and if I do a manual grade sync it works fine with no errors. I checked the setting in grade sync and the setting is enabled, but in the history there is no attempt that it tried to sync. There are no errors saying there was…
What do I do when I am in the middle of an assignment, and it will not let me move on? A pop-up box came up at the top of the screen telling me there was a problem and to relaunch. I did that and the system is still locked up. I cannot continue. What do I do?
If I grade an assignment as 0 and missing, then when I finally grade the assignment does Canvas override the 0 grade?

The error I receive is com.follett.fss.vithar.core.ValidationException: A is not a valid value for java.math.BigDecimal. When I look up…
Following the online directions, my assignment is ONLINE submission, Past the Due date, but still does not auto fill all unsubmitted items as "MISSING" I can get it to work if I manually score each students' work as "MISSING" on the drop down tab, but the gradebook does NOT auto score missing work as MISSING. What do I…

Grade sync is not an option for a quiz a teacher on my campus created. I have checked assignment categories and dates. Do all students have to complete the quiz for it to sync?
