3. Check the popup summary to see what was grabbed before filling into your next gradebook.

Troubleshooting

• Grades not grabbing?

• Ensure you are attempting to grab grades from the 'Responses' view of an Activity / Formative. To get there, click on the hyperlinked title of an activity.

• Make sure all students that you want to grab have submitted their assignment and that you've scored any responses that aren't auto-graded.

• Receiving an error message? Find the associated help article in our Troubleshooting Area.

• Grades not filling into your next gradebook?

• Do the rosters match? Check to see if the names on the page in Formative look the same as they do from where you're trying to 'fill'. You can look in the briefcase to see what's been grabbed.

• If you've got the right class, look more closely at the student names to see if there are naming discrepancies, like typos, middle names, or other formatting issues. To fix name discrepancies, go to the Advanced Settings within GradeTransferer and use the Pattern Remover or the Name Discrepancy Fixer to teach GradeTransferer how the names should be recognized.

🎯 Remember to always review transfers for accuracy and completion. The GradeTransferer service can significantly speed up the transfer process and cut down on errors. However, just as with manual grading, it is the teacher's responsibility to verify that grades are correct within their gradebook.
