This feature is available for Invigilators.

The late submissions feature allows candidates to submit their work after the primary submission deadline has passed. The work submitted during this late submission period is flagged as being late and the submitted time and date are captured in Monitor. 

This article explains how to view late submission details in Monitor, and how to use filters to refine your search for candidates.

How to view late submission in Monitor

As an Invigilator, you can easily monitor late submissions in the Monitor module. You can display the Primary submission deadline (PSD) and the Late submission columns in Monitor to see which candidates have and have not submitted their work late.

The following columns in Monitor provide an overview during a late submission test:

• Test start time: The time when a test window begins.
• Primary submission deadline: The time when the regular submission window stops and the late submissions window begins.
• Test end time: The time at which the test window ends.
• Individual primary submission deadline: This is the PSD set at an individual candidate level.
• Individual end time: This is the end time set at an individual candidate level.
• Late submission: This is indicated by True or False. If there is still time before the Primary submission deadline, all the values within Late submission will read False. The status is updated only when a submission is made by a candidate.
• Extra time: Extra time can be added to a test.

Once the time set for the PSD/IPSD has passed, any submission from a candidate without an extension is marked as late. The Late submission column indicates whether a candidate submitted late or not. By enabling the Candidate submitted column, you can also see the exact date and time that the candidate submitted their work.

Filters within Primary submission deadline

Within Monitor, you can set further filters within the Primary submission deadline to refine your search for candidates.

1. Click More filters > Primary submission deadline.
2. Click the dropdown under Primary submission deadline and choose one of the following filters:
   • Today
   • Tomorrow
   • Yesterday
   • This week
   • Within the last
   • Within the next
   • Between

Late submissions with extra time

In the instance that extra time is added during Late submissions, the following behavior will occur:

• The total time available to the candidate for taking the test is the test duration plus extra time.
• If a test has a duration, the candidate can take the test anytime within the late submissions window and complete the test.

In the example below, a candidate is given 10 minutes extra time in addition to a Late submission period. Their late submission window will now begin at 12:40 PM, and their original Individual end time of 2:00 PM is pushed to 2:10 PM.
