Ed-Fi v3.X - Grades Resource Preferences

Tool Search: Ed-Fi Configuration

The Ed-Fi Configuration tool is used to establish Ed-Fi data resources.

The following describes how to set the resource preferences for the Grades resource. If the Configure or Edit buttons do not display, then the resource does not need to be mapped and the toggle button can be used to turn the resource on or off.

 If a mapping is changed, a resync must be performed on the resource in order for the new mappings to send correctly.
  1. Select the appropriate Ed-Fi Code for the Grading Type Descriptors. The Add button can be used to add additional grading tasks to the mapping. The Remove button can be used to delete a grading task from the mapping.
