Grades > Assignment Grades

❏ Corrected the note icon to properly open and highlight/unhighlight when data is entered, modified, or deleted. Also, removed the Unsaved Data Warning message from the note icon as the data is automatically saved to the database without entering a PIN.

❏ Corrected the program to display ALL instead of a random course name in the Course-Section drop-down field on the Assignment Grades Report Selection page.

Reports > Class Roster

❏ Corrected the program to properly generate the report in both page orientations; landscape and portrait.


Reports > Class Roster > Class Roster Report Selection

❏ Corrected the issue that caused the message “NO COURSES EXIST” to display in the Course-Section drop down even though courses did exist. This fix also corrected the message “Period: No valid periods” in the Period drop down on the Attendance > Post/View Attendance page.


Discipline

❏ Corrected the issue that allowed some Discipline users to access options beyond their permission level.


Settings > Manage Categories

❏ Corrected the issue of dropped grade settings being inadvertently carried over when you first accessed the Grades > Assignment Grades page, and then navigated to this page and retrieved a course.


Settings > Manage Seating Charts

❏ Corrected the program to properly generate and print the most current version of the seating chart.

❏ Updated the program to change the Due Date field to Date.
