Hello,
just pinging people about this because it is still open and is the second most voted issue on tracker with 117 votes at the moment.
Instructor receiving "You have assignments that need attention" message when no assignments appear to need attention.
As Daniel points out, this problem is open on tracker, although the thread primarily refers to problems with students.
Has anyone found a solution that applies to teachers?

Solution to the problem: You have assignments that need attention
by Javier Nieto -
To solve this issue you need to make sure to uncheck the boxes for :
Allow submissions from
Due Date
Cut-off date
If
you have a single assignment with the Due Date check box checked the
students still able to submit or modify what they sent, so that is the
reason to have the message "You have assignments that need attention"
the message will be remove it after cleaning the boxes.
As a good practice make sure to remove those check marks after grading an assignment.
