The Paradigm Grade Book or Grade Schema can be found under System > Search Grade Type, see Grade Schema.
Paradigm can support multiple different grade books. Grade books can be assigned to each individual course. This means Paradigm can support as many grading schemes as courses being offered by an institution, see Grade Schema.
Paradigm can have grading schemes for both the final unit/subject and individual assessment tasks. These grading schemes are independent of one another, see Grade Schema and Entering Results.

Then you go and set a studentβs E620 to that new option (database value of 511 in the field). When paradigm builds the option list:
The newly added options, would all be set as selected because they have the value of 511 and then the browser (9 times out of 10) shows the last item in the option list as selected.
