Deleting Custom Assignment Types

You can delete a custom Assignment Type only if the Assignment Type is empty (contains no assignments) and the points equals 0 if in Points mode or 0% in Percentage mode.

Note You cannot delete the basic SAM Assignment Types.

      Type part of the section name to find it more quickly.

    The section's student list displays.

  2. Click the Manage tab in the upper right corner of the window.

    The Manage tab displays.
