We are not able to recreate the issue you described and the issue has not been reported by any of 30+ school districts that test our reports.

If the issue is occurring in only a few classes, then the problem is most likely with the traditional grade calculations set for the those classes.

Have the teachers manually reentered the calculation they want to use and submit. Rerun the report and see the proper calculation is displayed.

What determines how a Teacher ends up on this report. We have Teachers that have not updated thiers grades for over 30 days but do not show up.

Thank you

1. Are your teachers using the PT Pro Gradebook?

2. What value are you entering in the "Check for Classes that haven't been updated in x day(s)" box?

When I try to run the honor roll report my data comes out really strange...goes way across that page and it not lined up. I also have to hit submit twice to even get any data. I have tried FireFox and Chrome. I also tried to generate the report as a PDF and it just sits there.

Hi, We were running this report and noticed that students who are no longer enrolled in the class are pulling into this report. It makes it difficult to see if the grade is missing or if they are just no longer in that section. Can we add something so those student do not pull into the report? Thanks!

Thanks Rob,
It would also be really helpful to add a department column to this report. It would more easily allow our staff to filter out the teachers they manage and get a clearer sense of how many grades are actually missing. Also we see that Advisory and a few other classes are pulling in that dont receive a grade. Any suggestions on how we can get those classes out? Thanks!

Hi Again,
It would be great to add more filtering ability to this report. All of subject areas are providing comments, so the file is very big and actually slows down PowerSchool. Can we maybe add the ability to select by department before clicking submit to run the report? Thanks!

Hi Thank you again for all of your work on these, it is so helpful!

For the Class - Grades Verification report, students who are no longer enrolled in the class are on the report. Can you add in active/inactive so we can filter them out? It makes it hard to review grade completion.

Thanks!

This report displays the Gradebook Grade and Percentage for one student in one section different from the actual Gradebook Grade and Percentage that are entered in the teacher's PowerTeacher Pro gradebook. Is there an explanation for why this happens? (The Stored Grade and Percentage match the Teacher's Gradebook.) The Teacher's Gradebook was not changed after grades were stored.

PSCB

This could related to a rounding issue. Check both the stored grade percent and the gradebook percent to see if they are displayed with a decimal.

You can also download and install the Out-of-Sync Grades Alert plugin available on the PowerSource Exchange. Check to see if you get the same out of sync result.

Hi,
I just ran the honor roll report for Q2 and about half way through the report, no student names or student numbers appear, all other columns are filled with level and GPA. Please let me know how to troubleshoot, we need this data for an Award ceremony this week. Thanks!

Hi,
When I am running this report for reviewing all quarters for students who have more than 1 F, the Term ID does not pull in so I cannot tell what quarter/term the F is from. Can we add that to the report? It has storecode, but because its current grades, I dont think a store code exists. Thanks!

I'm having a problem running the "List Class Detail" report. If I choose "all students" I get data back as expected, but if I choose "current selection" it never works (even if my current selection is all students). I get a message that says "no data in table".

Not sure which report you are referring to. PSCB does not have a List Class Detail report.

Good Morning,

I wanted to see how I changed the term display to pull in store codes for our midterm stored grades. The term display does not have the option right now for me to select M2 stored grades. How to I add that term into the term display drop down selections?

PSCB

Thu, 03/19/2020 - 10:11am

The Term dropdown menu is auto generated from your Final Grade/Reporting Term Setup. Confirm that you have created the M2 reporting term on the setup page.

RE: Grading / Stored Grades - By Course/Teacher
I notice that this is pulling from the gradebook and not Stored Grades. Is it meant to be like that?
For instance, I ran it will all store codes and we do not have any "Stored Grades" for "F1's" (Final Grades) for full year courses, yet but this report shows the F1's for most classes.
Another example using your "Out of Sync Grades" report verifies that the grades for the Stored Grades report are pulling from the gradebook and not Stored Grades.
Thank you.

The Gradebook - Out of Sync Grades report compares Gradebook grades and the corresponding stored grades that have been stored to date. The sql retrieves grades from both the Gradebook and Stored Grades.

We store a progress report grade in the middle of each quarter. But I am not seeing it pull in the grading reports, current or stored. Any ideas on how to fix that? Thanks!

I've added new grade options to grade scales for remote learning but these are not showing as options on the Class-Grades Search. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the plugin with no luck. Any suggestions? Thank you.

PSCB

Sat, 04/18/2020 - 4:35pm

The grades drop-down menu is generated from term grades that currently exist in the teacher's gradebook.

If you do not see grade in the menu, it indicates that the grade has not yet been used in a teacher gradebook for the current year.

This plugin is awesome! Thank you.

I have a principal who is pulling the Student Assignment Status report every week to see how many incomplete assignments there are. As the marking period progresses he would love to be able to choose a date range as some assignments become ..." less relevant".

Thanks so much for your amazing work!

The department filter doesn't include departments for courses that are created at the district level. In the query the filter c.schoolid = ~(curschoolid) is excluding district courses because those courses have the schoolid 0.

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. It will be addressed in the next release of the plugin.
