I am trying to conclude two courses and I am not able to do so. I am the admin and teacher for the course. I also have checked that there is an end date for the course that has passed. From what I can read that is the requirements. The "Conclude Course" button is not present in the settings tab. It was there for two other courses that I concluded.
Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you,

Greetings @AndrewMeador ,
Thank you for posting on the Instructure Community!
When it comes to concluding a course manually, you generally shouldn't have any issues doing so, especially if you are an admin of the account the course is associated with. A couple questions I have are:
1) Are you sure you didn't already conclude the course manually?
2) Is it possible that the course concluded automatically via your SIS (Student Information System) that may be connected to your Canvas Instance?
3) If you are only an admin associated with a specific sub-account only, is the course you are trying to conclude associated with the sub-account in which you'd have permission to do so?
I hope this helps a little bit, feel free to reach back out! Always happy to help.
Best,
Noah

Hello,
I had the same issue that @AndrewMeador described in the original post to this thread, and I figured out how to finally conclude some courses for teachers at our school who had no "Conclude this Course" buttons showing in Settings and so had some old tiles from previous years hanging around on their dashboards. We have SIS integration with Canvas, but the course in question were all manually created courses.
In course Settings, I noticed the option to the right of Participation was set to: "Course"
I changed this Participation setting to "Term" and clicked Update Course Details.
Note: Doing this will remove any dates set for the course.
Now look again at the options in the upper right of Course Settings. Hopefully Conclude this Course shows up for you as it did for me!
Good luck!
Sincerely,
Greg
