Re: Is there a way I can see where the scale is being used (without having to go in every course and check each assignment etc)?
It's many years since this question was first posed but I had the same issue today. I resolved it using the Configurable Reports plugin and the following SQL Query:
SELECT prefix_course.fullname AS Course, prefix_course.shortname AS "Course Short Name", prefix_grade_items.itemname AS "Graded Item Name", prefix_grade_items.itemmodule AS "Graded Item Type" FROM prefix_grade_items INNER JOIN prefix_course ON prefix_grade_items.courseid=prefix_course.id WHERE prefix_grade_items.scaleid="[SCALE ID NUMBER]"
