Created by: David Tod, IT Analyst & Canvas Tech Lead, ITS, System Office

Inside of SIS there is a new button – Get Grades from Canvas.  Upon clicking the button, it will ask you to connect to Canvas (you have to Authorize). If you have not created a grading scheme you can do so from the pop up screen by clicking course settings and turning on “set grading scheme”. A grading scheme converts your numeric grades into letter grades. SIS only takes whole grades, if you have +/- in your grades, they will be dropped in SIS.  You will be asked to copy either the current grades or the final grades to SIS. Click on the appropriate button.  Back in SIS remember to click the SAVE button.  Check for blank grades and student grades that need last day of attendance (W, F, or I). The steps to transfer your Canvas Grades into SIS are shown in this video.
