Extra Credit Not Changing Final Grade

I have a teacher that has followed all the instructions on how to add extra credit, but it isn't changing the grade for the students. I have included some screen shots.

 

This one shows the students grade is 98% without putting the extra credit in.

This shows the final grade is still 98% after adding the extra credit

And this shows how we setup the extra credit.

The Score Entry Points cannot be 0. Make it 0.1 or 1 (I personally don't like decimals).

That didn't work. Thanks for the try. The videos I have seen said you can make it 0.

Is the teacher using total points or category weighting? If it is category weighting, how is it set up--this may sound simple but I see it all the time--is the category the EC assignment in part of the Category Weighting?

 

You can have the Score Entry Points as 0 but if that is the only assignment graded PT Pro will not count the extra credit points. See screenshot 2.
