Changing assignment weights after importing an assignment with a closed due date.

[rohoward0321]

I have run into an issue after copying portions of a previous course for this semester. Once the items that I copied show up in my assignment list in my current canvas course, I cannot change my assignment weights. This is because of the due date of some items intended for grading falling well outside the current due dates for grading. My powerschool grades and grades in Canvas are off. Are there any workarounds to bypass or fix this issue?

I am also having this problem. Have you received an answer?

Hi @rohoward0321 and @rakers 

After importing the assignments, simply change their due dates to one that fits within your term, then adjust the weights in your assignment groups. And, you can now change all your due dates on one page. See, How do I bulk update due dates and availability dates as an instructor?

Virtually all my assignments are copied from previous terms, and I am able to manipulate them in all the ways I can manage assignments I created in the course.

I hope this helps,
