We would like to create a new role for Quality Assurance, who can see all the submissions, grades and feedbacks in different activities (for example Assignment). They are *not *allowed to change the grade but they need to check the suspended/inactive students' works as well. They need to download the original submissions and the tutors' feedback files but we don't want to give them grading permission.

Create a new role (for example qaadmin) based on non-editing teacher.
Change the capabilities:

• Grade assignment (mod/assign:grade): not set
• View suspended users (moodle/course:viewsuspendeduser): Allow
  Create a course
  Create an assignment
  Enrol one user with the new role
  Login as the user with the new _qaadmin _role
  go to the assignment
  click on View/grade all submissions
  scroll down and try to uncheck the Show only active enrolments checkbox
  you've got an error message saying:

??Sorry, but you do not currently have permissions to do that (Grade assignment)

More information about this error

Debug info:
Error code: nopermissions
Stack trace:
line 786 of \lib\accesslib.php: required_capability_exception thrown

line 53 of \mod\assign\view.php: call to assign->view()
??

But you have got the view suspended users capability so you should be able to do that even if you are not allowed to grade them.

Thanks
