"GPA: value outside of valid range on numeric field" error message when releasing grade
Cannot release grades due to error
Description
When releasing grade through a Course Connection or Course Offerings, you may receive an error message that contains the following content "GPA: value outside of valid range on numeric field".
Full error message is as per image below:
Resolution
The error message above is caused by the GPA calculation process. EDA's GPA field in the Program Enrollment object only accepts single digit value (with 3 decimal points).
When you have a Grade Setting record that contributes Grade Points in double digit value, the calculation process will still run, but it will possibly return a double digit GPA value, hence the "GPA: value outside of valid range on numeric field" error.
