Nutrition Grade - Doesn't work when adding items

Hi!

Do you know what the cc is looking for when they calculate the nutrition grade?  When I add items myself, with calories, grams, fat, protein, sodium, carbs and fiber, it will not calculate.

Does it need vitamins to help calculate?

Thanks.

When you look up an item, look for the ? in the upper right.  It is the help key and the one near the Grade explains how the system works and, I think, will answer all your questions. 

Briefly, the grade is based on the nutritional values on the label.  It has nothing to do with calories.

Here's a link in case you can't find it

It gives me a grade when I add the vitamins and it doesn't if I don't.

Thanks everyone!
