Select the option Upload course content, click on Select and upload the desired learning object. You will notice that the option "Create course automatically with" ist pre-selected. However, as long as the file you're uploading is not recognised as a valid SCORM file, only individual learning objects will be created (which you will need to add manually to courses).

When a file is uploaded, it is being checked for the following:

Exchange a course content's file

Extra caution needs to be lent to this procedure. This function allows you to replace the uploaded course content file to update its content.

Pay special attention that the new file must correspond to the existing learning object type. It is recommended not to change an existing learning object type. When replacing a SCORM course content file, make sure the new version does not contain any major changes, such as e.g. pages with additional test questions.

In the Administration Panel, go to Contents > Course Contents and access the detail page of the intended learning object. Go to Course content details and click Edit, then click on the Select button next to File.

You will notice that the URL has changed to the path of the new file you have uploaded.

If you replace files in a course content which contains learning progress information, make sure to avoid SCORM-relevant changes in the new course content version. Such changes may include e.g. additional test question pages or edited feedback. In the case of major changes, you are advised to create a new course.
