Move between Stages

Move between Stages

There are 3 parts to this:

1.                  Complete the Flights in Group mapping

2.                  Complete the Teams in Group mapping

3.                  Bulk Create Races for the Group

 

Part i) Allows you to choose which event flights (boats) replace which flights in the template and therefore which order they are sailed in the schedule. This can be completed for all groups before the event starts and then would only need to be adjusted if you want to change the boats being used mid-event.

Part ii) Allows you to choose which order your event teams appear in the schedule. If you are moving between stages you can start to complete this before the current stage completes for example when you can predict/verify their rank or position for the next stage. As you link the teams they will start to show on the schedule against temporary race numbers which helps teams know when there next race may happen. 

Part iii) can only be completed if all the Flight and Team mappings for that stage are completed - Click Bulk Create Races, in the confirmation box type YES (in capitals) in the box and click Submit - all the races for that stage will be generated and the temporary race numbers removed. The remainder of the page allows you to preview the races before they are created.

You need to run the Bulk Create for each Group independently e.g. if Stage 2 is split into Gold, Silver, Bronze Groups then you need to run for each. This therefore allows you to generate the schedules for one group before you finish configuring other groups.


Once the races have been created check they appear on the schedule as expected, it is not possible to delete races once results have been entered. If the schedule is not as expected then you can use the Delete All Races to remove what has just been created.
