Increase the passing score

Some people say that Oracle Certification doesn't carry that much weight since the passing score is so low (60% or so). And in the certification, the passing score isn't shown, thus making the person scoring 100 % the same as the "almost fail" 60%. Why is the passing score is so low? Can't it be raised? Or at least put the passing score in the certificate. That way, it's more fair. Make my Certification worthy, since it's not cheap.

Make my Certification worthy, since it's not cheap.The worthy certification candidate understand certification exams having passing scores; while a certification, which, depending on certification, can be achieved by one or more routes, becomes a little more difficut to manage in terms of passing score.
There are probably many reason for not putting a percentage on a certificate .... increased exam costs through increased dispute handling might be just one of them.
The passing score is set depending on the difficulty of the exam, and IMHO is usually set appropriately. In general IMHO a passing score of ideally 67% to 72% will usualy indicate exam questions have been set wih the appropriate level of dfficulty and exam time. When the pass mark ges toward 77% as the the case of 1z0-147; this may be an indicator the questions for this are becoming 'too easy' . Equally a pass mark of near 60% may indicate questions are too difficult, 1z0-402 is the a prime example here, whee a 57% pass mark does seem too low to be reasonable.
Probably the 60% pass ark exam you are referring to is 1z0-051.
Couple of notes on this one:
(1) It is a non hgh stakes entry level exam that is available non proctored.
(2) It needs to have a comparable candidate pass rate to 1z0-007 (Pass mark 71%).
(3) It is quite possilbly the first exam people will encounter.
.... To the person who passed 1z0-051 say well done, you have studied an exam with a good topic range based on modern SQL and have achieved a pass.
.... To anyone who has achieved 95% in 1z0-051 and wants recognition above those getting a pass at 60%..... i say go and pass 1z0-047 and get your SQL OCE certification!!!

1Z0-051 ....what's the passing score???

Hi,
I am going to take the 1Z-051 in two weeks and just noticed in the Oracle certification web page:
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_051
The passing score is :
Number of questions: 65
Passing Score:60................that's over 90% pass score.....
Now, is that 60% or 60 questions out of 65?
If it is 60 questions, why then the 1Z0-007's passing score is 71% which is equal to 36 out of 52 questions?
Please help, tell me it is just an error in the page.......
Thanks

The passing score is :
Number of questions: 65
Passing Score:60................that's over 90% pass score.....
Now, is that 60% or 60 questions out of 65?It is 60% (NOT 60 questions).

Can my captivate module report the maximum score of a quiz?

Hi All,
Is there a setting I am missing on my captivate module that would allow the maximum score of a quiz to be reported back to our LMS.
We have scorm modules from around 5 different vendors that do report this information back, however, mine do not. One of these vendors also creates the scorm courses in Captivate so I know it must be something I am overlooking?
Many Thanks in advance
Chris M

Chris,
I believe I know what you're talking about. I've seen SCORM Captivate lessons stop recording the score in SumTotal once the mastery score has been met. Failed attempts will record an accurate score, but as soon as the passing score is hit the lesson is marked complete. If this is the same problem you're experiencing, there are other posts on this board describing the same problem. The only way I've been able to address it is to change the Quiz Manager settings so it reports the Score and Slide Views. I set the Slide View percentage to a value that will allow the users to get to the end of the assessment. Reporting the Slide Views in addition to the score keeps the lesson open. The downside is the user can't skip around the lesson or they may not hit the slide view percentage value.

Oracle 11g SQL Fundamentals pass score

Hi,
Can anybody confirm what the pass score is. The page (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_051&p_org_id=28&lang=US) says it is 60% out of 70 questions but this page (http://www.oracle.com/global/us/education/certification/score_info.html) says not to trust it as it can change at any time without warning...

Need failed and passing scores to be sent to LMS

I need to track all test attempts and score (passed and failed). Currently, my LMS (SUMTOTAL) will only report on passing scores. I can see that a learner has taken the test 10 times and the passing score, but I can't see their scores on attempts 1-9. I am using captivate 6 and I was wondering what my quiz settings should be to report on failing scores.

Captivate throws all of the scoring data to the LMS for each and every user session. If the LMS doesn't retain anything other than the final score, that's not something you can control within Captivate. Talk to your LMS vendor.

Java SE 7 Passing Score

Greeting, Last year December i wrote 1Z0-803 and scored 70% and the passing score was 77% meaning i failed. Yesterday i logged in and realized the passing score has been changed to 63%, now my question is do i rewrite for 63% or will i be credited for my 70% which i have on my records ? Please Advise !

The exam has actually been reviewed and revised, with questions updated, added and deleted. So it is a different version of the exam now, from the one you took. The passing score for the version of the exam you took was 77%, so you did not pass that exam. You will need to retake the exam, taking the version that is now available, and you will need to gain at least 63% to pass. This is a revised item bank from the exam you took, which is why the exam details are different.

Hi,
I created a simple plugin and since i wanted to use Early Binding i added Xrm.cs file to my solution.After i tried registering the plugin (using the Plugin Registration Tool) the plugin does not gets registered and i get the below mentioned Exception.

And to my Surprise after i remove the Xrm.cs file from my solution the Plugin got registered!
Not understanding what exactly is the issue.
Any Suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shradha


Hello Shardha,
I really appreciate that you have faced this issue.This is really very strange issue and basically it occurs because of big size of your early bound class and slow internet
connection.
I would strictly recommend you to reduce the file size of your early bound class and then register.By default early bound class is created for all the entities which are
present in CRM(System entities as well custom entities).Such kind of early bound classes takes lots of time to register on server and hence timeout exception comes.
There is some standard define to reduce the size of early bound class.Please follow the link to get rid from big size of early bound class.
Create a new C# class library project in Visual Studio called SvcUtilFilter.
In the project, add references to the following:
CrmSvcUtil.exe(from sdk) This exe has the interface we will implement.
Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.dll (found in the CRM SDK).
System.Runtime.Serialization.
Add the following class to the project:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using Microsoft.Crm.Services.Utility;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Metadata;
namespace SvcUtilFilter
    /// <summary>
    /// CodeWriterFilter for CrmSvcUtil that reads list of entities from an xml file to
    /// determine whether or not the entity class should be generated.
    /// </summary>
    public class CodeWriterFilter : ICodeWriterFilterService
        //list of entity names to generate classes for.
        private HashSet<string> _validEntities = new HashSet<string>();
        //reference to the default service.
        private ICodeWriterFilterService _defaultService = null;
        /// <summary>
        /// constructor
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="defaultService">default
implementation</param>
        public CodeWriterFilter( ICodeWriterFilterService defaultService )
            this._defaultService = defaultService;
            LoadFilterData();
        /// <summary>
        /// loads the entity filter data from the filter.xml file
        /// </summary>
        private void LoadFilterData()
            XElement xml = XElement.Load("filter.xml");
            XElement entitiesElement = xml.Element("entities");
            foreach (XElement entityElement in entitiesElement.Elements("entity"))
                _validEntities.Add(entityElement.Value.ToLowerInvariant());
        /// <summary>
        /// /Use filter entity list to determine if the entity class should be generated.
        /// </summary>
        public bool GenerateEntity(EntityMetadata entityMetadata, IServiceProvider services)
            return (_validEntities.Contains(entityMetadata.LogicalName.ToLowerInvariant()));
        //All other methods just use default implementation:
       public bool GenerateAttribute(AttributeMetadata attributeMetadata, IServiceProvider services)
            return _defaultService.GenerateAttribute(attributeMetadata, services);
        public bool GenerateOption(OptionMetadata optionMetadata, IServiceProvider services)
            return _defaultService.GenerateOption(optionMetadata, services);
        public bool GenerateOptionSet(OptionSetMetadataBase optionSetMetadata, IServiceProvider services)
            return _defaultService.GenerateOptionSet(optionSetMetadata, services);
        public bool GenerateRelationship(RelationshipMetadataBase relationshipMetadata, EntityMetadata otherEntityMetadata, IServiceProviderservices)
            return _defaultService.GenerateRelationship(relationshipMetadata, otherEntityMetadata, services);
        public bool GenerateServiceContext(IServiceProvider services)
            return _defaultService.GenerateServiceContext(services);
This class implements the ICodeWriterFilterService interface. This interface is used by the class generation
utility to determine which entities, attrributes, etc. should actually be generated. The interface is very simple and just has seven methods that are passed metadata info and return a boolean indicating whether or not the metadata should be included
in the generated code file.
For now I just want to be able to determine which entities are generated, so in the constructor I read from an XML
file (filter.xml) that holds the list of entities to generate and put the list in a Hashset. The format of the xml is this:
<filter>
<entities>
    <entity>systemuser</entity>
    <entity>team</entity>
    <entity>role</entity>
    <entity>businessunit</entity>
</entities>
</filter>
Take a look at the methods in the class. In the GenerateEntity method, we can simply check the EntityMetadata parameter
against our list of valid entities and return true if it's an entity that we want to generate.
For all of the other methods we want to just do whatever the default implementation of the utility is. Notice
how the constructor of the class accepts a defaultService parameter. We can just save a reference to this default service and use it whenever we want to stick with the default behavior. All of the other methods in the class just call the default
service.
To use our extension when running the utility, we just have to make sure the compiled DLL and the filter.xml file
are in the same folder as CrmSvcUtil.exe, and set the /codewriterfilter command-line argument when running the utility (as described in the SDK):
crmsvcutil.exe /url:http://<server>/<org>/XrmServices/2011/Organization.svc /out:sdk.cs /namespace:<namespace> /codewriterfilter:SvcUtilFilter.CodeWriterFilter,SvcUtilFilter
/username:[email protected] /password:xxxx
That's it! You now have a generated sdk.cs file that is only a few hundred kilobytes instead of 5MB.
One final note: There is actually a lot more you can do with extensions to the code generation utility.
For example: if you return true in the GenerateOptionSet method, it will actually generated Enums for each CRM picklist (which it doesn't normally do by default).
Also, the source code for this SvcUtilFilter example can be found here.
Use at your own risk, no warranties, etc. etc.

How to increase the heap space size -is there any parameter to pass to JVM

I created a memory buffering module which can be use to buffer log records and write to hard disk.disk writing is done by a separate thread so the main application won't be delayed. and memory for new errors are allocated dynamically. when i test this it gave this exception Exception in thread "Thread-62" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space then I test 100,000 of log records at a time and sleep the thread for 1 second to let the garbage collector do its job this works fine. but when i increase the log records count further it gave the above error. so i want to know whether is there a way to give the heap memory size to the VM as a parameter before running it.

Ctx_doc.snippet increase the number of occurrences returned

Hi everybody,
I am pretty new on Oracle Text so please be merciful :)
I am on Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 and I need to provide my users with ALL snippets found in a text, but it seems that CTX_DOC.SNIPPET restricts the number of snippets occurrences (I will exemplify it later).
The question is: is there a way to increase the number of results/snippets returned by CTX_DOC.SNIPPET ?
In the example that follows, I create the table "mysearch" and an index of type CTXSYS.CONTEXT, then I run the final SELECT query with CTX_DOC.SNIPPET() to obtain a list of most relevant fragments.
If you run the query - see the column "SNIPPET" - record #6 is returning only the first 4 occurrences. In this case (especially because is a single row) I would expect to find all 6 occurrences instead of 4.
Again, if looking to record #7 I have only 3 occurrences.
Then for record #8 I have only 2 occurrences.
I know that CTX_DOC.SNIPPET retrieves the "most" relevant fragment, but I would like to obtain the full list of fragments present in the indexed text. Is there a way (or an alternate method) to accomplish what I like to do.
I have also noted that CTX_DOC.MARKUP can be used on the same index to retrieve the full text "marked-up" with my query terms, so I know Oracle has indexed the text somewhere, I need only to get it out !
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Luigi

Why does captivate 5 scorm 2004 change the pass/fail status when using complete/incomplete

SUMMARY: I am trying to use SCORM 2004 reporting but I am finding out ADOBE does not diffentiate between COMPLETE/INCOMPLETED and PASSED/FAILED variables in the SCORM 2004.
RESULT: I can not accurately get the passing/failing status from the course.
QUESTION: Is their anything I can do or does ADOBE have a patch they have release which will accurately report the passed/failed STATUS as well as the completed/incompleted status.
OTHER RESEARCH: I even attempted to post these "proofs" on scorm.com and they have something called "SATISFACTION TRACKED" to accomodate content creation systems (CAPTIVATE 5) which does not follow the standards of SCORM 2004.
BACKGROUND: the report status "Incomplete/Complete" and "Pass/Fail" under the publishing options for SCORM 2004 essentially mean the same thing when the CAPTIVATE COURSE sends setvar commands to the SCORM API... In other words the SCORM API receives the same exact commands when publishing in both modes. "THIS IS WRONG"
why is the wrong? IF REPORTING; incomplete/complete ; the CAPTIVATE 5 COURSE SHOULD NOT "change" the STATUS OF PASS/FAIL when attempting to report COMPLETE/INCOMLETE with 100% slide views.
DEMO #3> SHOWS THE PROBLEM
About DEMO #1 and DEMO #2> these are other reporting options I attempted with other problems arrising..so these images are just for supporting my original problem which is shown in DEMO #3...
DEMO 1 (REPORT STATUS has no affect on reporting):SETTINGS:
PASS: (PROBLEM)
Anything above Passing Score is not recorded to LMS (once passing is reached...no more bookmarks are recorded)
FAIL: (CORRECT)
Failure gets sent to the database on the last screen with "completed"
DEMO 2 (Report status [Complete/Incomplete Pass/Fail] has no impact on commands sent to scorm api):
SETTINGS:
PASS: (CORRECT)
Very Last page gets sent to the Database
FAIL: (PROBLEM)
NOTHING GETS SENT TO DATABASE (stuck in final score screen forever)...because it says "INCOMPLETE"
DEMO 3:
Report status [Complete/Incomplete Pass/Fail] has no impact on commands sent to scorm api
SETTINGS:
PASS: (CORRECT)
Very Last page gets sent to the Database with a 90% passing with "completed"
FAIL: (PROBLEM)
LAST SLIDE SENDS "completed" but GETS SENT AS A PASSING SCORE??? even when it is a failure
(IN OTHER WORDS ADOBE CHANGES THE PASS/FAIL STATUS based on slide views...
this is WRONG ....REALLY WRONG becuase I am trying to report
"COMPLETE/INCOMPLETE" for 100% slide views
PASS/FAIL OPTIONS:
OPTION I CAN PURSUE?
SO WHAT CAN I DO? YES, I CAN TELL THE LMS...to COMPARE THE SCORE RECEIVED DURING A "COMPLETE" status...and then change the grade in the LMS based on the SCORE IN THE LMS...BUT THAT WOULD MEAN THE LMS COULD REPORT ONE GRADE and the COURSE COULD REPORT A DIFFERENT GRADE....and that would not be good.
ALL OF OUR COURSES SHOW THE STUDENT THE FINAL SCORE WITHIN EACH COURSE..
QUESTION TO ADOBE?
SO ADOBE when are you going to differentiate these two reporting options so that the PASS/FAIL OPTIONS ARE ACCURATELY REPORTED WHEN USING COMPLETE/INCOMPLETE?
MORE INFORMATION
HERE IS THE SCORM.COM "Satisfaction" adjustment (very last line) to accomodate inconsistent reporting in CAPTIVATE 5.

CAPTIvATE 5 cmi.completion_status
and cmi.success_status does not work independently with scorm 2004. they both share the same definition. These two field were designed to help differentiate the difference between a passing or failing score and when the course is actually completed. WITH CAPTIVATE 5 they do not differentiate the two. COMPLETE means PASS and INCOMPLETE means fail..
I was trying to use "completion_status" as a way to determine when all slides were shown. So that I can send the final score (PASS/FAIL) the LMS after all slides were viewed and this was the absoluted score the student recieved.

Hi,
Here's something I found in a similar situation... hope this helps!
After publishing your CP5 project as a SCORM 2004 zip file, unzip the file so you can get into the separate files. Open the imsmanifest.xml file with a text editor; I like using Notepad++. Search for the line starting with <imsss:minNormalizedMeasure>. The complete line will probably look like <imss:minNormalizedMeasure></imss:minNormalizedMeasure>, this is the line that is supposed to contain your passing score (at least for our LMS). So, if your passing score is supposed to be 80%, edit this line to be: <imsss:minNormalizedMeasure>0.80</imsss:minNormalizedMeasure> and save the file. Then select all the files and re-zip them, I use 7-zip for that.
I found one other weird thing that doesn't happen 100% of the time, so test it. In the example above, try to get a score of exactly 80% (or whatever passing grade you are using) and see if you get the correct status reported. I found I sometimes have to re-edit that line in the manifest file to be 0.79 so it correctly includes an exact 80% score. No idea why and you have to watch the number of questions in your quiz to make sure that works for you mathematically.
If this works or not, I'd recommend posting your results so others can get some ideas. Good Luck!!

Could not retrieve the document with the passed obsolete token.

Hi,
Issue is with the specific report not able to execute when the query is cancelled and getting an error when you are cancelling an already executing query.
Receiving an error message during running one of our report in the
following way:
- Run the Webi report
- Select the value for 8 prompts
- Click on cancel
- try to re-run by clicking on re-fresh and receive an error message.
The error message is the following:
"Could not retrieve the document with the passed obsolete token (Error: RWI 00323) (Error: INF)"
Till now we have made the following changes:
This might be caused by a storage token that identifies a document state, which is no longer available in the storage tokens stack.
In the webi.properties file, increased the value of storage tokens stack size.
1. Edit the webi.properties file found in the following location:
u2022 <Installed dir>\program files\businessobjects\BOenterprise115\Web services\en\dsws_webservice_boe\data\asemble\dsewsBobjJava\src\WEB-INF\classes\webi.properties.
2. Add or change the following variables:
u2022 WID_FAILOVER_SIZE (This sets the maximum number of tokens to keep in memory. It is 10 by default.)
u2022 WID_STORAGE_TOKEN_STACK_SIZE (this sets the maximum number of tokens stored on disk. It is 10 by default.)
u2022 Deleted cookies.
u2022 Add the Java Runtime Parameter value from following path:
Start - > Control Panel-> Java -> Java Applet Runtime Settings
Click on View.
Add the Java runtime Parameter value: Xmx200.
It is not a machine specific issue however it is intermittent.
Please advice.

Pradnya Kokil

Hi Pradnya,
Following solutions might help you to resolve the issue.
Solution1:
To achieve optimum performance, the developer should limit the number of new windows that can be opened using the OpenDocument function, particularly if using it within the drill function.
If you must open a new window each time, you can increase the number of document instances available on the system by modifying parameters in the webi.properties file:
1. On the Business Objects server, navigate to the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\WEB-INF\classes
2. Open the webi.properties file using a text editor.
3. Uncomment the FAILOVER_SIZE=10 line by removing the # from the beginning of the line.
4. After FAILOVER_SIZE, add the following:
STORAGE_TOKEN_STACK_SIZE=40
5. Save the file.
6. Restart the application server
Solution2:
Do not use Control Key + N or File New from Browser for invoking new instance of Browser
Avoid opening Infoview by Hyperlinks.
Alternatively, by setting logontoken.enabled property in web.xml for desktop.war, will stop users allowing using old token
Locate web.xml file in desktop.war file deployed on your application server
Locate the following string in web.xml:<param-name>logontoken.enabled</param-name>
Change the <param-value> for logontoken.enabled from true to false (forexample, <param-value>false</param-value>)
Save and close the file
Restart the web application server to apply the changes

How to increase the size of sort_area_size and what size should be according to the PROD database

Hi,
Many Thanks Charles
Oracle does not recommend using the SORT_AREA_SIZE parameter unless the instance is configured with the shared server option. Oracle recommends that you enable automatic sizing of SQL working areas by setting PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET instead. SORT_AREA_SIZE is retained for backward compatibility."
--How can i know the instance is configured with the shared server option or not?This might be a tough question to answer. A shared server configuration may be enabled, but the clients may still connect using dedicated sessions, in which case PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET would still apply.
From
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2088.htm
V$SESSION includes a column named SERVER which will contain one of the following for each of the sessions: DEDICATED, SHARED, PSEUDO, or NONE. As a quick check, you could query V$SESSION to see if any sessions are connected using a shared server connection.
From:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/manproc.htm
There are several parameters which are used to configure shared server support, as well as several views to monitor shared server.
As Robert mentioned, when the WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY is set to AUTO, the SORT_AREA_SIZE setting is not used, unless a shared server configuration is in use.
--What default value is WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY and SORT_AREA_SIZE ?From:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/initparams157.htm
"Setting PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET to a nonzero value has the effect of automatically setting the WORKAREA_SIZE_POLICY parameter to AUTO. This means that SQL working areas used by memory-intensive SQL operators (such as sort, group-by, hash-join, bitmap merge, and bitmap create) will be automatically sized. A nonzero value for this parameter is the default since, unless you specify otherwise, Oracle sets it to 20% of the SGA or 10 MB, whichever is greater."
Actually I am facing performence issue since long time till now i did not get the solution even i have raised SRs but i could not.When the issue occur system seems hang.what i monitored whenever hdisk0 and hdisk1 use 100% the issue occur.
Regards,
SajidWhen you say that you have had a performance issue for a long time, is it a performance problem faced by a single SQL statement, a single user, a single application, or everything on the server? If you are able to identify a single user, or SQL statement that is experiencing poor performance, I suggest starting with a 10046 trace at level 8 (wait events) or level 12 (wait events and bind variables) to determine why the execution appears to be slow. If you have not yet determined a specific user or SQL statement that is experiencing performance problems, you might start with either a Statspack Report or an AWR Report (AWR requires a separate license).
If you believe that temp tablespace usage may be a contributing factor to the performance problem, you may want to periodically run this query, which will indicate currently in use temp tablespace usage:
{code}
SELECT /*+ ORDERED */
TU.USERNAME,
S.SID,
S.SERIAL#,
S.SQL_ID,
S.SQL_ADDRESS,
TU.SEGTYPE,
TU.EXTENTS,
TU.BLOCKS,
SQL.SQL_TEXT
FROM
V$TEMPSEG_USAGE TU,
V$SESSION S,
V$SQL SQL
WHERE
TU.SESSION_ADDR=S.SADDR
AND TU.SESSION_NUM=S.SERIAL#
AND S.SQL_ID=SQL.SQL_ID
AND S.SQL_ADDRESS=SQL.ADDRESS;
{code}
The SID and SERIAL# returned by the above could then be used to enable a 10046 trace for a session. The SQL_ID (and CHILD_NUMBER from V$SESSION in recent releases) could be used with DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY_CURSOR to return the execution plan for the SQL statement.
You could also take a look in V$SQL_WORKAREA_ACTIVE to determine which, if any, SQL statement are resulting in single-pass, or multi-pass executions, which both access the temp tablespace.

How to get the Success Factors LMS to record the quiz score for an Adobe Captivate 7 module.

I have a few questions and one outstanding issue.
My Issue:
I can’t get the score to be recorded by the Success Factors LMS.
Question 1)
I notice that the quiz reporting section in Captivate 7’s Preferences menu has a “Data To Report” section.
However, for SCORM 2004 and Tin Can, there is no option to report Quiz Score like there is for SCORM 1.2 and AICC.
Is reporting the score impossible for those reporting standards?
Question 2)
My organization is using the Success Factors LMS and I’m trying to get the score to be recorded by the LMS.
I’ve set the Published Captivate module to report the Quiz Score as a percentage (Points is unavailable to me since there are more than 100 pts),
but the LMS is recording whether the module was Complete (passed) or incomplete (not passed or yet to be completed).
Is (are) there some parameter(s) on Captivate’s side that I need to be setting for Success Factors to correctly record the score?
- Maybe Captivate (in SCORM 1.2) should be reporting the Score as points and not percentage?
- Maybe I should be using AICC?
Is (are) there some parameter(s) on Success Factor’s side to interface correctly with Captivate?
I’ve checked the Adobe forums, but I don’t see any help there and
I’ve googled the issue to the point of exhaustion and frustration.
So, I would very much appreciate the help.
Thank you for your time.
Provided below is a screenshot of my Quiz Reporting settings:

Last year I worked with a customer who has the SuccessFactors LMS and, after some issues and discussions, the SF folks suggested their LMS supports AICC better than SCORM.
That stunned me a bit...
SO, sure, barring anything else, it may not hurt to try AICC!
And I think SF is also limited in their SCORM 2004 support. If going with SCORM, definitely try to get SCORM 1.2 working first.
Your settings look good to me. Maybe can't hurt to try 'points' but I'm not so sure that would work.
So you're ONLY seeing 'Completed/Incomplete' not 'passed/failed' as you'd prefer?
You're not seeing a recorded percentage at all?

Increase the passing score
