4. Review the information that was filled. If you like it, you can press the save button (floppy disk icon) at the top of the page.

Troubleshooting

• Grades not filling?

• Did you successfully grab grades from another learning platform first? You can check the pop-up summary or the briefcase to see what information is being held before attempting to fill in PowerTeacher Pro.

• Did you click into the first grade cell of the assignment before trying to fill? This is how GradeTransferer knows where you want to fill the data.

• Do the rosters match? Check to see if the names on the page in PowerTeacher Pro look the same as they do from where you grabbed them. 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.

• Grades not saving? Make sure to press the save button in your gradebook after filling.

🎯 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.
