18. Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Renaming Sheet TabsDo not rename sheet tab names (e.g. changing Student Masterlist to Students). Formulas across 30+ sheets rely on exact tab names.
2. Skipping Class & Subject SetupIf you skip setting up your subject components, initial weights in the Gradebook will default to 0%, causing #DIV/0! errors.
3. Pasting Formatted Text from External FilesWhen pasting student names from Word or PDF, always use Paste as Values (Ctrl + Shift + V) to avoid breaking background cell borders and conditional formatting rules.
πŸ”§

19. Troubleshooting Guide

Issue: Workbook feels slow on older computers

Solution: Set Excel calculation mode to Automatic except for Data Tables, or use Google Sheets which offloads computation to cloud servers.

Issue: Formula errors in Printable Report Center

Solution: Verify that the selected Student ID exists in the Masterlist and has entered grades in at least Q1.

21. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use TeacherEase Pro with Google Sheets?

Yes. Upload the Excel file to Google Drive and open it with Google Sheets. Most features work seamlessly, though some advanced Excel functions may have minor differences.

Q: How do I add or remove student rows?

Use the Student Masterlist to add new students. Maintain row order and don't delete or re-sort rows after adding grades, as formulas are row-dependent.

Q: What if I have more than 60 students?

Extend the gradebook range by copying the formula cells down beyond row 60. Ensure the Settings sheet references the new range for analytics to capture all students.

Q: Can I customize the report cards?

Yes. Edit the Printable Report Center sheet to change layout, fields, or add school-specific details. Ensure formulas referencing student data remain intact.
