Having issues with Turnitin and can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Don’t worry, we’re here to help!
When you submit an assessment, you will receive a digital receipt. This confims that you have successfully submitted your work and includes other important information worth keeping such as your your submission ID and the date and time sent.
Not only does a digital receipt give you peace of mind that you have submitted your work, but it is useful to have for the rare occasion that something goes wrong and a staff member needs to locate your submission. Knowing the paper ID is key to the process, particularly as most work is submitted anonymously.
This guide will show you how to locate your receipt from the Turnitin Assignment dashboard.
Step 1: From your module page in My Dundee, open the relevant Turnitin submission point.
Step 2: Click Launch from the side panel to open a detailed view of your submission.

Step 3: Click on the last icon in the row with your submission title – it will look like a notepad.

Step 4: This will download your receipt, so be sure to save it somewhere you can find it again later if you need it. The paper ID/Submission ID can be found at the bottom of the text, above the preview of your document.
