Teacher Issues Before Term Starts

[HilaryK]

Hello - I am an administrator who has enrolled all students into sections.

We are in the current year, but the term does not begin till 9/6. 

Teachers in UC cannot view their students in UC "students" icon and cannot set up their gradebooks with traditional grade calculations even though the class is listed as a 19-20 class.  The alert says "the section does not have an assigned reporting term."

Thank you for your help!

Your admin needs to set up Final Grade Reporting Terms.

HI DAn,

Thank you for your reply!

I am an administrator.

I have set up the school year and terms.  They are correct in our system.  Our school year began 7/1, the fall term begins 9/6.  Is there any way I can make it so that the information shows up BEFORE 9/6 without changing the 9/6 date?  If this is found elsewhere than editing the year and term in school setup, please let me know.

Hi @HilaryK ,

As part of the start of the year procedures there are two separate areas that contain years and terms information. Years and terms generally are migrated and populated in the EOY process. However, once in the new year you need to navigate to School - Grading - Final Grade/Reporting Term Setup. It looks very similar to years and terms however it really is what makes the connection between the SIS and PowerTeacher Pro.

Hello,

I am having the same error on all the teacher gradebooks

• Section does not have an assigned reporting term. 
  I went into Final Grade set up and the terms were already set up.
  I do not have any student enrolled in any classes yet, but I don't think that is the problem.
  where else do I look to solve this problem so gradebooks open?
  After the rollover, most teachers and class schedules are the same as last year.

I solved this question.
On the final grade reporting screen

I didn't remember I had to Click NEW under the school year

and put in dates for the four Quarters there, since those are the terms.

Thank you Dan!

This has solved my problem!

It looks like it was set up for 1 out of the 3 schools in our district but not all.  I appreciate your help!
