The Grade Substitution Maintenance (SHAGRDS) page is used to capture and maintain grade substitution entries. These entries are checked when a grade is posted to the student’s record. It ensures the grade posted on the student’s record is in agreement with the grading mode selected for the course. For example, a student may have chosen the Pass or Fail option for a specific course, but the instructor posted a grade of A. If a substitution grade of P is defined on this page, the system will convert the A entered by the instructor to a P.
The Grade Code Maintenance (SHAGRDE) page and the Grading Mode Validation (STVGMOD) page must have been completed before entering grade substitution information.
