When setting the restrict access criteria for a Turnitin v2 assignment to user based restrictions, it treats tutor and course administrators like students. UnknownRaised with Turnitin supportIf you set restrict to students with a certain email, it is also necessary to add the tutor/ course administrator email.
Submitting .docx created in Office 365 files does not always submit to Turnitin. Despite receipt number being generated. The following advice has been circulated via the HELF (JISC Heads of E-Learning Forum) Turnitin mailing list, 'We have confirmed that one cause of failed/corrupted submissions is the result of students submitting Word dcuments created using Word Online (Office 365). Those documents saved as PDF before submission seem to work.' Re-saving the document in normal 'desktop' Word will also fix this issue. UnknownRaised with Turnitin support

"As discussed, this assignment is set to allow any file type.  This means that some submissions that have been made will not be able to generate an originality percentage and may show as pending as we are unable to extract the text to generate a report.

We would advise that the students access the check for issue area within Microsoft Word, inspect the document and look for any custom XLM errors and then click on the 'remove' button to see if this removes the areas and tries submitting the work again.  This may allow the report to be generated.

Please also note, we do not accept documents that have been created via Google Docs.  If students have tried to submit created via Google Docs, then we will not be able to generate a report.  We recommend that such documents are saved in a different format
