2. Click the Bulk Actions dropdown

NOTE: A Force Submit cannot be undone, however the Request Revision tool can be used to allow the student to submit the activity again

Rollback

The Rollback option allows a instructor to move students’ submissions backwards in the assessment process. 

NOTE: Using Rollback will clear any work that was done in the activity by students or assessors, and it cannot be undone

To Rollback student submissions:

2. Click the Bulk Actions dropdown

3. Click Rollback

4. Select the Status you would like to Rollback to, and click Rollback
