[OPEN] Classic quizzes are not creating submission object for all students on import when shifting dates

Canvas

Engineers are currently investigating the issue.

Description

  • When importing published classic quizzes with due dates, and selecting the option to shift the dates, they are not creating submission objects for all students upon import.
    Affected students do not appear in Speedgrader for the quiz and the affected quizzes do not show in students To-Do list, however the Student calendar still reflects correctly

Expected Behavior

  • Importing a classic quiz should trigger creation of submission objects for all students assigned and should show on students To-Do list and all students should show in Speedgrader.

Workaround

  • Editing the Due date will update submission objects and will reflect in Speed grader and To-Do list.

Steps to Reproduce

Prerequisites - Have two courses with separate course start and end participation dates. The receiving course should be published and contain student enrollments.

  1. In course A, create a classic quiz assigned to everyone with a due date in the courses date range, save and publish.

  2. In course B, run a course import for all content and (Adjust events and due dates → shift dates) leave the populated dates from course start and end and import.

  3. Check that everyone is assigned with a due date.

  4. Act as a student and navigate to the home page or dashboard, note that the classic quiz is not showing in To-do list.

  5. Stop masquerading and Navigate to the quizzes assignment submissions API and note that not all students have a submission object.

  6. Check in Speedgrader and note that there are missing students.
