Add the blue question mark to the "unavaiable" officials page during assigning
When assigning it would be very handy to be able to see an officials availability for that given day (or weekend) when you hover over his name or rank or somewhere in the "Show unavailable officials" box since sometimes they're being set to "unavailable" because of their manual rank and not their actual calendar.
This would alleviate having to click out of the assign view and into the calendar each time you want to check someones hours.

Need report to show cancelled games reason
When you cancel a game due to weather, field conditions, forfeit, etc there is no way to see what the cancellation is unless you go into each game separately. We have games that are paid differently based on reason cancellation.

Notes through game import
It would be nice to be able to import game notes during the import process; i.e. note that games are part of a tournament.

Interval Game Scheduler
We schedule 3,000 + games per year. When I add recurring games, I have to add a recurring game for the same field on the same night 4 different times for start times 6:15, 7:15, 8:15, 9:15 for example. It would be easier for us to just select that field and be able to say there are 4 games with 1 hour intervals starting at 6:15 and then have that apply to the date range we have selected. It would reduce my time entering games by 75%. I know this would be a bit more complicated to program though!

flat rate mileage based on location
Allow for mileage to be paid strictly based on the location of the game. Park A pays $10, Park B pays $12, etc. We don't care where the official is coming from, mileage is paid based on where the game is.

Specify crew chief in bold or all caps
When working more than two umpires in baseball, we need to have a crew chief assigned. The crew chief is not always going to work the plate. So, we should be able to denote the crew chief without having to create four different positions with crew chief attached. This would make my assigning positions list less cumbersome.

Minimum rest time after set of games
Settings can be altered to identify when officials are available to officiate after assignments. If an official is set to become available immediately after an assignment, that official can be scheduled at another venue. If the settings are changed to allow for a minimum time period after the assignment, that official is now not available for linked assignments based on the time period identified.
Would it be possible to modify the filter to have the official become available based on the assignment?
For example, an official skating hockey in the Ontario Minor Hockey Association must have three hours rest after…

Customize Official Ratings Questions by Position
We should be able to customize questions based on the position the official is working. For example, Positioning does not apply to a Timekeepers job.

Based on certain criteria, automatically apply a pre-defined travel fee to games
Would make our assignors lives a bit easier if there was a way to tell the travel/mileage system to automatically apply a travel fee for each official on the game if certain criteria are met.
I know not all associations have this, but most I know do some sort of single game fee.
Example:
Automatically add $5 travel to each official on all games that are:
Example League, Mite, Squirt or Peewee, Do not have a game within X minutes of the start time or end time of game in question.
If all of those conditions are met, the game…

Automatically links a scheduled game to the Pointstreak gamesheet for that game.
Many ice hockey organizations in the US currently use Pointstreak for their game recordkeeping needs. Each game scheduled has a game sheet created for it, which lists the rosters for each team and, following the game, shows all of the goals, penalties assessed, etc.
It would be incredibly convenient to be able to use my Horizon schedule to link directly to the Pointstreak game sheet for each game. If a game sheet is available before the event, I can use it to review eligible players before arriving at the rink.
If I need to fill out a game report for…

Allows you to bulk reschedule cancelled games
When a game or more specifically a set of games are cancelled (i.e. due to weather, etc), they are cancelled in the system to notify the officials. Several days later when they are finally rescheduled, you have to manually do each individual game. The ability to bulk reschedule games would be huge.

TBA counters should show how many officials requested a TBA for all schedulers across an organization to see
The TBA counter on the Master Schedule should alert how many TBAs there are across the site so when co-schedulers are trying to schedule, its a quick glance to see if there are any requests, so the co-scheduler doesn't need to go to "add official" for every game TBAed to see if there are any TBAs requested across the organization.

Event contact
We utilize a contact name and phone # at each of the events we staff. Is there a way to add a column for this or allow this to be imported into the note for each event?

A feature that would allow assignors to know who has viewed videos
I think it would be a great feature for assignors to know who has view any video that has been uploaded. This would help to know who is actually watching so we can keep up with officials that take an interest in improving their skills and are learning from the videos.
