Tip!

Results to Ladok was updated with new features 2022-04-20. See the guide Getting started with Results to Ladok for an up to date description.

In the course menu you will find Results to Ladok, which you can use to submit grades from an assignment in Canvas to a module in Ladok. These grades will get the status Marked as ready in Ladok and are then ready to be certified by an examiner. You can only transfer grades based on grading schemes (and not points) that you select when you are creating your assignments. The grading scheme in Canvas must match the grading scale for the Ladok module.

Get started with a grade transfer by clicking Results to Ladok in your course room.

Confirmation of transfer

Once the transfer to Ladok is finished, a confirmation e-mail will be sent to the reporting teacher. The name of the sender of that e-mail is Sunet Canvas. In the e-mail you can see transferred grades and examination dates (no student names or civic numbers). However, if any grade transfer fails, you will be able to see the name of that student.
