I am working in Captivate 7 and publishing courses a s SCORM 1.2 and uploading to an LMS. For some of my courses a total time is reported and for others it is not. I don't see any difference in the way I have the courses set up. Is there a setting than manages this? Below are screen shots of the setting I have set up. They are identical on two different courses, one that is reporting it and one that is not.
On the manifest dialog in each project, check to see if some have the duration setting selected.
Hi Rod,
None of them do. They are all like the one pictured in my post (with different Identifier, title, and description information).
Is this automatically a part of the information that would be collected/sent to the LMS?
I have copied the imsmanifest.xml below for a course that is recording, although I don't see a difference between this one and one that is not recording it.

Try this:
1. Take one of the projects that works the way you want it to, make a Save As copy, add one blank slide to the beginning of it, and then delete all the other slides.
2. While having the previous project (now with only one blank slide) still open in Captivate, open the project that DOES NOT work the way you want it to and copy/paste all slides to the new blank shell project you've created.
3. Publish this project and test it in your LMS to see if if now behaves like you want it to.
Thanks Rod for looking into this. After working with the LMS administrator further, they discovered that it is an error on their end.
Captivate does automatically try to capture this information and report it.
