# Grade History

Every attempt, grade override, manual update or unlocking is logged in the **grade history**. The history includes: the user who modified the grade, the grade before and after updating, and the date/time it was modified or unlocked. 

A grade is only locked when an instructor has manually overridden the grade in the gradebook. To unlock a grade, double click it and click the **Reset** button. This will revert the grade to the original score. See :point\_right: [Overriding Grades](https://help.simnetonline.com/manager/results/overriding-grades#overriding-a-grade) for more information.
