Replace Content in an Assignment

After you launch an assignment, you may find the need to replace the content, such as when content retires or new content becomes available that better meets your need.

If one or more assets within a published assignment is retired and you don't replace it, and the assignment has active content in it, the retired content no longer counts towards the assignment completion criteria. If the order is forced, the learner is automatically able to access the next item in the list after the retired content. Percipio automatically removes the retired item from the assignment and the user can continue to complete the assignment.

If all content within an assignment becomes retired, the assignment shows completed for the learner. If you try to replace retired content after the assignment is marked complete for the learner, the learner retains the assignment completion. A best practice is to replace content scheduled for retirement before it actually retires.
