Managing Data Saved in ScoreManager
ScoreManager has the facility to save information about the athletes and judges which are entered into competitions. This feature allows ScoreManager to use data from past competitions to help organisers and speed up the process of creating entries and panels by automatically filling in the required information.
An athlete is added to ScoreManager's list of athletes the first time an entry is created for them manually. ScoreManager will save the athlete's name, gender, date of birth & association number to its list at the same time as the entry is added to the competition. When the next entry for this athlete is created, ScoreManager will atutomatically fill in as much information as it can.
However ScoreManager does not save the data from athletes imported from CSV files. The reason for only saving athletes who have been manually entered is that small differences in spelling an athlete's name or specifying date of birth or association number would create multiple records for the athlete in ScoreManager's database of athletes. Consequently when creating entries, a competition organiser would not know which of these records is the correct.
Judges are added to ScoreManager's list of judges the first time they are assigned to a panel and Scoremanager will save their name, judging qualification and their club/region/country as appropriate. When the judge is added to another panel, ScoreManager will fill in these fields automatically.
Alternatively an organiser can add athletes and judges through the screens offered under the Saved Data menu.
Over time the details of the athletes or judges may change or they are no longer wanted in the system. ScoreManager provides the option for competition organisers to change or delete athletes and judges through the screens offered under the Saved Data menu.
