Percipio Learning - Edit an Assignment

Site Admins can edit assignment meta data for all assignments including those they didn't create.

Learning Admins(and Managers with Assignment privileges) can only edit an assignment's meta data for assignments they created.

Note: You cannot edit an In Progress assignment's content items or change the option to require learners to restart a course from the beginning.
  1. From the Admin menu, select LEARNING > Assignments. The Assignments page displays.
  2. Use the search to locate the assignment you wish to edit.
  3. Select  >  Edit.
  4. If you are editing a Scheduled assignment, click Yes when the following message displays:

  5. You can modify the following:
    • assignment name
    • business objective
    • assignment description
    • start date (for Draft or Scheduled assignments only)
    • end date or number of days
    • learners and audiences
    Note: Start, end, and completion dates are in GMT.
  1. To remove content from a Draft or Scheduled assignment, in the Content section, locate the content you wish to remove and click . The content is removed immediately.
  2. Click Next: Notify users. The Notify users page displays. You can set the Send an assignment email toggle to either On or Off, depending on how the assignment was created. If you have the toggle set to On, you can customize your email. You can leave the toggle set to Off if you don't want to send the emails.
  3. Click one of the following options:
    • Save assignment: Saves the assignment, places it into a Draft status, and returns you to the Assignments page. You can modify this assignment later.
    • Launch assignment: Places the assignment into one of the following statuses:
      • If the Start date is today, the assignment is placed in an In Progress status and the assignment is immediately available to the learners. The email with the assignment details sends at the date and time you specified in step 9. Modifications to the assignment content cannot be made, but you can add a user to the assignment.
      • If the Start date is in the future, the assignment is placed in a Scheduled status and the email, if enabled, sends at the date and time you specified in step 9. You can make modifications to all aspects of the assignment until the Start date.

Also, assignments with the same due date are listed by when the assignment is launched, in ascending order, on a learner's assignments page and on the home page.
