Hello,

I would like to set the gradebook to take a one-time 30% deduction for late work submissions.  How do I set that up?

I was going to refer you to the Canvas Guides document on how to add a late-submission policy, but then I caught you want a one-time deduction. Currently there is a requirement to add a frequency to whatever deduction we add, and the only options are hourly or daily. Adding a option for a one-time deduction is an excellent suggestion. The best way to make Canvas better by adding new features is to use the idea process here in the Instructure Community. Information on how to do this is on the page How do Ideas and Themes work in the Instructure Community? .

Creating an idea does not provide an immediate solution to the problem you described, though it is a solution. I’m going to mark it as such and hope that our colleagues who have a similar challenge will find the best way to contribute. If you decide to create an idea, please link it here.
