[ARCHIVED] Cannot add assignments in linked semester classes

[99006]

I'm trying to add assignments into my canvas courses (both semester courses linked as a full year course) and it's saying cannot add assignments after course end date. How do I fix this?

Thanks,

Jenn Whitmore

Hello Jennifer,

In the course settings, is this particular course set to be in the "K12 Semester 1 - 2019-2020" term?  I would confirm that first.  The error message indicates that the problem with the assignment date settings is specifically the term dates, so the date in question is coming from the term setting for the course.

It is possible to set an end date for the course within the course settings, and this overrides the term end date (see How do term dates, course dates, and section dates work in Canvas? ), but since it looks like the term end date for"K12 Semester 1 - 2019-2020" should be fine for the assignment dates you're trying to use, that suggests that the course may be assigned to the wrong term.

unfortunately I cannot set the term or anything about my class other than it's name due to county admin restrictions. Even my other linked courses say semester 1.

 @99006 , your best course of action in this case would be to contact the county admin directly for additional assistance. This page of contact information for your district's Information Technology Services might help you with that: https://www.ocps.net/departments/i_t_s
