Verify that the column Receiver Account is filled after you activate the Similarity Detection. This can take a moment, you can try reloading the page.

If the Similarity Detection toggle is turned on after students have already submitted an assignment, a plagiarism report will also be created for these previously submitted assignments.

Step 5:

After students have submitted assignments, you will be able find the plagarism score and reports under the tab Similarity Score Submission Details (see screenshot below).
