Ability to include *all* (single and multi term) course final grades in a Final column on Report Card
When setting up a report card to display chronologically, single term courses appear differently in respect to multi term courses when it comes to a 'Final' grade column.
At the end of the year, most schools create a 'Final' column in the last term of the year. However, single term courses that ended earlier in the year cannot be placed here due to the chronological layout of the report card. This is difficult to foresee, as typically 3 or more report cards of chronological formatting are issued before this limitation is discovered.
The ability to have a master 'Final' column that exists outside the last term of the year (that pulls in end of course grades for single and multi term courses) would set this right.

Allow each report card column to display grades from multiple grade plans (and terms)
Merged This was listed as "Implemented" in the latest release, but definitely has not been. In fact, it's now worse than it was before. We have courses that follow different grade plans, so a "fall interim" grade, for example, can be in three different p...2

In the new Report Card Builder, we need to be able to select more than one Grade Plan/Grade Plan Grade to display in a column

This is basic education and math. So confusing for transcripts and of course report cards. Makes them messy.
Is there an update on this idea that was originally posted on 2017? It seems that the new report card builder and transcript builder need to have this functionality that existed in the original builders but was lost.
Agreed, this is something that is available in the old builder and it needs to come over tot he new builder as well.
This should be basic functionality and needs to be updated immediately. Unbelievable that this is not a standard option in the K12 solution. Please get someone involved to resolve this. Thanks.
Hi,
After three years, is there an update to this ticket and resolving the issue double entry?
Has anyone been able come up with a solution other than creating a redundant gradeplan, something the old report card builder did not make us do?
I would love to do this same thing at the semester report card. We have to put semester and year long course grades in separate columns. This confuses parents.
Thanks for the suggestion. This is very important to our school. We calculate GPA based on the final grade (average form multiple terms for year-long courses) and therefore need to be able to display that final year average on the report card in a "Final" column. But not being able to do so for single term courses that ended earlier in the year is a big problem. This was easy with Education Edge. Discovering this limitation this far into our initial implementation of onRecord is disappointing.
