Two release modes
Manual (default)
A finished result waits for you. The student sees nothing and gets no email until you release it.
Automatic
A result is released as soon as it is complete. The student sees the score and gets an email at once.
What counts as complete
A result is complete when every question has a final score. A result that is still being graded cannot be released.
Written answers must have a final grade. A student never sees a partial or provisional score, in either mode.

Change the release mode
