Original Message:
The CNYRIC has been notified by Mindex that they are planning to release a SchoolTool Grading App Update this afternoon to apply a fix for the reported error that many users have encountered while accessing the new grade book (Ticket 80045: "Sorry, something went wrong. If the problem persists, contact support"). Please note this update does not require downtime.

Given the significance of this issue for teachers, Mindex is planning to release this fix for the grading application on Monday, November 18, at 4 PM, with no required downtime. Mindex has conducted the same internal testing that preceded the successful bug fix release on Tuesday, November 12.

Accompanying this release will be a few minor/low risk updates to the grading application that had been completed prior to the bug fix. Please see below for the full list of updates included in this grading app release:

Bug fix for Ticket 80045 - Error message, "Sorry, something went wrong. If the problem persists, contact support" will no longer occur
Updated text labels in the grading area (score vs grade) to be more consistent
Updated search result message to be more informative when a user gets no results when trying to find standards to link to assignments
Updated descriptor/standard search to include the descriptor/standard short name in the search when in standards-view in the grade book.

We sincerely appreciate your cooperation as Mindex works to update the system as needed. If you have any further questions or issues, please do not hesitate to to contact your primary SchoolTool Consultant.

Original Notice:
The CNYRIC has been notified by Mindex of the following: Issue

The Mindex has been informed of an issue regarding the new Submit Descriptor/Standard Marking Period Grades screen. It has been reported that teachers are currently unable to successfully edit saved comments, and teachers may not realize their edits were not saved until the marking period window has closed.

Please note: This bug will impact anyone using the New Submit Standards-Based Report Card Grades screen and trying to edit comments they have already entered and saved. Teachers using the submit screen in the Legacy gradebook should not experience this issue.

Action needed: Mindex is currently working towards having a fix prepared for a release scheduled for Tuesday, November 12. Additional information regarding the scope of this release (including additional bugs that have been identified) and the measures implemented to prevent a recurrence of the caching issue will be provided in a subsequent status update.

Scenario: Teacher modifies a saved comment and selects the "Save & Close" button. However, when the teacher prints the report card or returns to the comment section, the original comment is displayed, and the updated comment is not saved. Please note that this will only affect edits, if the teacher enters a new comment or selects a comment from the comment bank without making edits, the comment will save as intended.

The current workaround (also highlighted in the screenshots below):
Copy the comment
Click Delete
Paste and edit the comment into the comment box
Add the comment with the necessary changes
Click Save & Close
