Missing Status in Elementary View

I see a problem developing with the missing status for Elementary - When a teacher has an assignment set with the submission type as "Online" or any setting requiring an actual submission in Canvas, and then a student turns in the assignment on paper, the teacher can go to the gradebook and give the student a score and remove the missing status if it is past the due date. The problem is the trigger for missing lies in the online submission itself and does not actually remove it as missing because there was no online submission. So, students are still seeing the missing status in the Schedule view even though the teacher has graded the item and removed the missing status in the gradebook. 

This scenario will most likely happen very often in Elementary school. Teachers need a way to say that the assignment has been submitted on paper, without changing the online submission settings to lock out students at home and have that trigger the submission flag so Canvas will not continue to show it as missing for students that already have a grade. 

This would help alot of teachers and students!
