Absent and Incomplete grade status request
As a teacher, it is useful to have different types of tags regarding assignments and grades. Would it be possible to create an Absent and Incomplete option for entering grades. This way, students can look at their 0 and understand that it isn't just missing and that I acknowledge they were absent. It also helps with identifying students who have missing work due to absences versus students who have missing work due to lack of turning it in.
Similarly, when grading and providing feedback, using an I as an incomplete status would help flag assignments as well.
Please?

Hi, @J84037 !
Grade statuses like that are managed at an account level so that schools and institutions can have consistency across courses. I would recommend reaching out to your Canvas Admin (they may be at your school or district level) and requesting additional gradebook statuses.
This Community Guide has instructions for Canvas Admins on how they can do that. Hope that helps!
