I have discovered that my problem lies in storyline as I cannot get correct percentages in my results slide thus my lms when opened in SCORM and completed does not show the users score, it just states "unknown".
this is where I am stuck because there are 9 different courses and the users need to receive their combined results as a percentage
If the 9 different courses are all separate files then I don't think there is a way to provide a combined score to your LMS. However, if they are all one file then you could do one results slide that incorporates all of the quizzes.
Tammy's advice for how to correctly combine courses seems 100% spot on. And if you continue down that path I would trust her directions.
That being said...Tracking and aggregating scores from multiple modules and record by participant is part and parcel to LMS functionality. In other words, it's one of the main reasons to even have an LMS.
I might suggest an additional avenue to explore and that is looking at how your LMS can bundle/aggregate your content differently. Some do it by calling sub-courses "modules" or "lessons" and you can set passing requirements for some/all of them. Others allow you to combine full "courses" into curricula or job profile requirements; again with passing criteria and/or aggregated scores. And don't forget, sometimes it means moving one or more of the quizzes outboard into a separate shell as part of the larger bundle.
The point is even though you are thinking of your courses(s) as a stand alone thing, most LMSs have a way to bundle them into something more...... even if it means thinking of them differently.
NOTE: The other advantage to this way of thinking (vs one super-sized 9 course course), is that it allows you to update and maintain the pieces properly without having to touch the full thing every time.
Adding to Bob's response, look for keywords like "Certification" or "Curriculum". These are common terms many LMSs use to group or bundle individual course modules into something bigger.
Sorry, I think I have been using the wrong terminology.
I have 9 modules, in the 2nd module I have one multiple answer quiz. I have checked all the aspects that Tammy advised. I think the problem is in how I have created my course in storyline because I cannot get an exact percentage in my result slide and therefor it will not show up correctly in SCORM. My classes will only show the pass percent and not the exact percent achieved

I'm sure it has something to do with your LMS publishing settings. When you say the scores are different...how so?
Hi, thank you for your reply.

Thanks Tammy
I have done that now. The completion is correct and success is correct however the score is still unknown
I'm just throwing out some things for you to check as I have not had this exact issue:
I'm sorry I cannot be more help!
Thank you so much, that has made the score reveal a percentage.
Unfortunately it only seems to mark up the pass percentage
Could you attach a screenshot of the how it is reporting?
No problem. You will see that it reports that I received 50% however I answered 100% correct
It is also showing that you passed with the 50%. Could you attach a screen shot of your results slide settings?
Or even the story file of the results slide.

Ah that makes more sense! Be sure the top box is checked on your results slide.
