Missing courses: Courses don't appear in the Lesson Plan picklist (P17)

Editing: I can't edit a lesson (P17) (see item 3 in this list)

You won't see a course name in the lesson picklist in your Lessons screen under the following conditions…

1) The course isn't set up yet.

2) The course type (C=Credit, E=Extracurricular, O=Other) isn't checked in the Lessons Screen

- On the Lessons form, check the appropriate box where it says "Show:"

3) The course is complete. A course is "complete" if it has a completion date and a final grade in Course Setup.

Also, you won't be able to edit the text of the assignment for a completed course.

- To make the course show up or to allow edits, temporarily delete the completion date and final grade in Course Setup.

4) The start date for the course is not within the current school year as defined in Basic Setup.

- Double check all of your dates in Basic Setup then in Course Setup (for each course). This is a common error.

- Course start date must be on or after the school year start date in Basic Setup.

5) The course is not checked as a "Home" course in Course Setup.

- Only "home" courses appear in the course picklist in the Lessons screen.

6) You have the Intro Screen open and you went to the Lessons screen by way of the Activities menu.

(No courses will appear in this case)

- Go to the Intro Screen and check the little box that says "Check this box to skip this form at startup."

Now with the Intro Screen closed, re-open the Lessons screen.
