How do I archive a grading scheme in an account?
As an admin, you can archive grading schemes for all accounts associated with your account.
Notes:
- A grading scheme in use can be archived and then unarchived and restored to an active state.
- Archived grading schemes can still be used wherever they are currently in use, but they cannot be selected for new courses or assignments.
- You cannot archive the Default Canvas Grading Scheme.
- When copying or exporting a course, archived default grading schemes are not copied or exported.
