Missing Work: Allow students to submit work if the grade entered in the gradebook is "zero"

Currently, if a student fails to upload an assignment I will eventually mark the assignment as a zero in the gradebook.  However, once a grade is entered they can no longer upload anything.  This is frustrating.  Perhaps they can upload something if it marked as a zero.

    Hi There,

    We implemented this a few months ago and it appears we missed closing out this idea. Students can submit an assignment online even if they have a 0 grade so long as they haven't used up all the allowed submissions.

    Let me know though if it's not working as expected. 

    Thanks!

    Yes, The zero helps kick up the stakes more so than marking it missing. Also, is there were a due date and a submission deadline. It could look at the submission deadline date allowing students to continue submitting past the due date.
