How do I archive a grading scheme in a course?
You can archive and unarchive and restore grading schemes.
Notes:
- Archived grading schemes can still be used wherever they are currently in use, but they cannot be selected for new courses or assignments.
- An archived grading scheme cannot be leveraged in the future by a course or assignment unless the scheme is restored.
- You cannot archive the Default Canvas Grading Scheme.
- When copying or exporting a course, archived default grading schemes are not copied or exported.
