[ARCHIVED] Why won't Canvas grade book automatically calculate the grade percentage of an assignment when I input the point value?

Until this semester, Spring 2020, I could set an assignment to display the grade as either points or percentage. If I chose to display the grade as a percentage in the grade book, Canvas would automatically calculate the percent if I input the point value in the grade book. Canvas would calculate the percent based on the point value I set up in the assignment. Now this semester, when I enter the point value in the grade book expecting Canvas to calculate and display the percent value, the grade shows the point value as the percentage by simply adding a % symbol. I have to calculate every grade and enter the proper percent value. Why did Canvas remove this capability of calculating percentage?

There is an Enter Grades As option that you may not have set correctly.  The following guide provides directions

How do I enter grades for an individual assignment as a specific grading type in the Gradebook?
