Add Personal ID to email notification of officials to coaches
We don't currently include Personal ID numbers in email communication, but we can certainly look into adding it. In order for us to evaluate it, you would need to submit a new feature request using the black "new feature requests" tab on the left hand side of every page. Unfortunately, we do not accept or track new feature requests through this support method.

Allow officials to specify location on Availability Calendar
As a result of my father passing away, I currently have 2 "home" addresses 600 miles apart and am splitting my time between them -- I also work for 3 associations: one near each house, and 1 that spans them.
It would be useful for both me and my assignors if there were a way to specify where I plan to be located on a given date so that they can assign me games in an appropriate location.
I assume that this would also be useful for officials who have vacation homes or travel on business.
Similarly, it would be…

calendar setting
I would like to see a monthly calendar setting that can be printed off or viewed that would allow an official to see the games in that entire month.
1 voteThis feature already exists. Organizations can turn on the “PUBLIC SCHEDULE” which would allow officials to see all the games for a given time period.

The use of the “Logout” option is an explicit act telling the system to get you out of the system and don’t let you back in until you login again. Remembering you after Logout is contradictory to the core premise of a “Logout” operation. As such, after selecting Logout, you will be requried to login again. Thank you for submitting an idea.

lets you do time before time and after
when entering selection on availability you can either do available before certain time OR after certain time. but it would be better if there was way to select time before certain time AND after certain time
1 voteThis feature already exists. To enter a before and after availability time, you would need to use the “Not Between” rule which would block your availability during a certain time period and allow you to be available before and after that time period. Hope that helps. Thank you.

Notify Administrators of User Profile Changes
If a user changes a mailing address, phone number, or custom profile field. Have a feature able to be turned on to notify Administrators of the change. Currently when an official changes a mailing address, they need to notify my as well. I create contact groups based on user entered custom field entries, so when those change I would like to update my contact group.

I'd like to import an excel schedule (entire season or any number of games at once), export existing schedules, and make mass changes to selectable and filterable entries.

shows us what games and positions are available ?
on the calendar you have filter options, and games disappear and re-appear..... kind of annoying when you try to plan ahead. So have a view that shows all games, and if they have requests are pending, or allocated.
1 voteThis feature already exists and is controlled by your assignor. If your assignor is not using this feature, you would need to contact your assignor to request them to enable it in their administrative settings. Thank you.

Have a list of games you have requested, and the position, and the status of your request.
self explanatory

Class Details/Course reference #
Good day, when pulling up the class details from the Master Schedule or Personal schedule, we have a part so we can list the Class Reference Number "Class Reference #:" Would be helpful seeing we use this to inform the instructors for payroll. If there was a listing in that form. Currently we cannot see from that screen without "edit" the course.

If individual has a game at that time somewhere else remove their ability
If I have someone scheduled for a game do not allow me to double book someone. Remove their availability if they have a game already.
1 voteUnfortunately, we have decided not to incorporate this option. There are instances when officials wish to remain available for some organizations even if they already have a game. For this reason we leave it up to the official to decide how they wish to handle their calendars, but assignors are always made aware of potential conflicts via the conflict warnings systems in place that will fully provide schedulers with the details of their other assignments that may be a conflict.

Allow for Use of Different Users
We would like to have different labels for users that we can assign to games. Specifically:
"Officials"...we use now, but lets call them "Member Officials". This would be used for fully registered local officials.
"Scorekeepers" ... let's call them Off-Ice Officials or Scorekeepers. This would be used for names specifically and exclusively assigned as scorekeepers with our clients. They need to be separated out from our Member Officials.
"Guest Officials" ... let's call them Guest Officials. These names would be for guest accounts for NON-registered members of our association, ie out of town official.
All three pools of Officials need…

"Un-Link Feature"
There should be a way to unlink games in case they are linked by mistake. I only ask because there have been too many times where I try to re-link games together after making this mistake and it still does not fix the problem. It only makes sense to have a function to unlink games.
1 voteThis feature already exists. You can unlink games by clicking on the link icon to the left of the game(s) that are linked. Hope that helps. Thank you.

Exportable Availability Tracker
Can you set up a system where I can export all games and available referees for any given day to Excel or something. Something that would list referees down one side and all required games on another. Then shade out what they either aren't available for or don't meant the manual ranking score for? Thanks.

We’ve performed a number of detailed studies on this topic and we are not in favor of utilizing an Available-By-Default option. You can see details on our analysis at the following knowledge base article:
