Manage Gradebook Settings in Bulk

Apply the same gradebook settings to multiple course sections at once with Bulk configure gradebooks. Instead of updating each course section's gradebook individually, use this wizard to select gradebook settings, choose eligible course sections, and pick the marking period to update.

Only course sections without assignments for the selected marking period are eligible for bulk updates.

This helps gradebook managers maintain consistent grading configurations while reducing manual updates across multiple gradebooks.

Bulk Configure Gradebooks

1. In Academics, select Grades, Grading setup.

2. Under Marking period & grade access, select Bulk configure gradebooks.

3. Select the School year, School level, and Marking period to update.

   Note: To update another marking period, run the wizard again.

4. Select Next.

5. Clear any course sections you want to exclude. All eligible course sections are selected by default. Use Select all or Deselect all to update your selections quickly.

   Tip: Course sections are organized by department, then course, then course sections. Use Expand all or Collapse all on the right to expand or collapse all departments and courses.

6. Select Next.

7. Configure one or more gradebook settings:

   • Select a Calculation method.

   • Select assignment types.

   • For each assignment type, you can also set:

     • Letter grade scale

     • Number to drop per marking period

     • Default max points

8. Select Finish to apply the updates.

9. Repeat this process for each marking period you want to update.
