Detailed workflow guide
Export Gradebook ECR
ECR export should run only when the selected workbook, class setup, learner data, grades, templates, and supported policy rules are ready.
Teacher goal
How do I export ECR files safely from Gradebook?
Use this guide when this is the task in front of you. Stop if the selected class, learner, role, school year, file, or output does not match.

Get ready
Check the starting point
These are the minimum conditions for the workflow to make sense.
Before you start
Estimated time: About 5–10 minutes
- A saved class with the correct subject and period
- Complete grades and the required ECR template
- Paid access when the selected file action requires it
You should see
Gradebook shows the correct class, term, workbook readiness, and a generated ECR file or ZIP that opens successfully for review.
Steps
Complete the task in order
Review choice points, save or preview behavior, and any stop condition before continuing.

- 2
Step 2
Check the selected workbook
Review the ECR workbook choice, including whether the selected template matches the grade level, subject, and term structure.
- 3
Step 3
Review grade completeness
Resolve missing scores, invalid grade values, incomplete learner records, and unsupported policy states before export.
- 4
Step 4
Generate one workbook or all-ECR ZIP
Choose a single workbook when reviewing one subject, or the all-ECR ZIP only when every included workbook is ready.
- 5
Step 5
Open the actual Excel output
Find the file in generated history, open the actual Excel workbook or ZIP contents, and review formatting before use.
Review
Check these before relying on the work
These checks cover saved, previewed, generated, and teacher-review states.
Template is ready
The ECR template must exist, open, and match the class grade level, subject, and term structure.
Grades are complete
Required written work, performance task, exam, and final grade data should be complete where the workbook needs them.
Policy is supported
The selected school year and term structure must be supported before any official-looking output is official-ready.
Generated history is reviewed
The output should appear in Files with a clear label, status, time, and local path.
Excel file is opened
The teacher should inspect the actual workbook or ZIP contents before printing, sharing, or filing.
File status
Understand what each output label means
The label describes readiness inside GuroAssist; it does not create outside approval.
- Local
- Saved on this device for teacher use.
- Draft
- Still needs teacher review or editing.
- Final
- The teacher marked the local work final after review.
- Official-ready
- GuroAssist readiness checks passed; this is not DepEd approval or submission.
- Review-only
- Useful for checking, but not an official-ready output.
- Blocked
- Stop and resolve the displayed readiness issue first.
Blocked states and recovery
Fix the blocker before continuing
Use the direct recovery action when GuroAssist is waiting for setup, data, access, policy, or file readiness.
Template missing
Install or restore the required local ECR template before export can continue.
After recovery: The required template is selected, readable, and shown as ready for this task.
Open backup and restore helpGrade readiness incomplete
Complete required scores, grade computation, and term readiness before generating.
After recovery: The screen shows a supported school-year or policy readiness message for the selected task.
Troubleshoot this blockerUnsupported school year
Update GuroAssist or choose a supported class setup when policy rules are not ready.
After recovery: The intended class appears in the workspace header and the task uses that class.
Review class setupAll-ECR ZIP has blocked items
Generate the batch only after every included workbook passes readiness checks.
After recovery: The blocker is no longer shown, and the intended next action is available for teacher review.
Troubleshoot this blocker
Safety note
ECR export must fail closed when required class setup, learner data, grade readiness, templates, or supported policy and school-year readiness are incomplete. Teachers should open the actual Excel output before use.
Finish
Verify the result
Do not treat a saved screen or generated filename as proof that the work is ready.
You’re done when
Gradebook shows the correct class, term, workbook readiness, and a generated ECR file or ZIP that opens successfully for review.
Privacy, policy, and official-looking outputs
Keep the work inside its safe boundary
These limits remain in force even when the main task appears complete.
Important boundary
Follow the policy and readiness message shown for the selected class and school year. Do not substitute remembered thresholds, quarter templates, or term rules.
Important boundary
Official-ready means GuroAssist readiness checks passed; it is not DepEd approval or submission.
Important boundary
For a three-term class, use Period grade sheet or another local summary when a quarter-only template is unavailable; the fallback remains local or review-only.
