linked position rather than linked games
ex. we run a 3 official system. 2 refs and 1 timekeeper. if there are 5 games in a night, generally the timekeeper stays for all 5 and the refs stay for either 2 or 3 games. I also like to stagger the refs so one ref does 3 games with someone only doing 2, then the next ref comes in for 3 games and he does 1 with the original ref for 1 game and his last 2 with a new official that comes in for 2 games.
the way the system works now, i can only link the…

Automatically update game ID's set by user default.
Under System Settings>Preferences>Set your own Game ID's. When you chose yes, add a box to add a starting numerical value. So they automatically update every time, instead of needing to add every time.

Allow different Address than Home to be used for mileage
Some officials attend college, and have a different local address than their mailing address. If the user can specify a different address than their home address to be used for mileage it would be helpful.
This address could be the work address or a different local address.
An alternative would be to expose the mileage calculations via the API and allow it to be overridden.

allow game notes to be posted under the game edit feature
Place the game notes section in the game edit area. This way you can add notes detailing reasons for any changes made to a particular game rather than having to make the change, close the game editor, and open the notes feature.

Separate ratings by game codes
I would like to be able to view the officials that officiate certain game codes and rank them. Now an official that is officiating lower game codes may be doing very well and he is ranked at the top and an official that is officiating higher level game that are more difficult his ratings might not be as good therefore his ranking is much lower. The old idea of apples to apples not apple to oranges.

Games Added within 5 Days Have to Be Approved
If games are added without enough notice, then it could be missed by our assigner.
When games are entered 5 days (can be modified) the game should have to be approved to be added.2 votesgathering community support · -
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?

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!

Adding a filter to the Master Game Schedule so we could select a day of the week within a date range
I would like to pick a specific community or league for a Tuesday for example and the same field number so I could schedule the same umpire on that field all summer long. It makes it easier to schedule instead of just going everyday of the week for that community. We have set schedules for many umpires and then fill in the blanks for the games left over with whoever is available. This would make scheduling even easier for us!

Allow mileage to be calculated when importing assignments
When importing a schedule, allow mileage to be updated/calculated for 1 or 2 slots (similar to auto-assign).
If the mileage amount changes, there is no way to go an update all games except individually.

Email game details to a third party
If there is a new, or different group, where all they need is the details of a game, it would be nice to be able to email. Currently, I will print the game details page, scan as a pdf, and email. It would be nice to have an email button similar to the print button...

Copy Game Function
We have a generic league code in our system which we use to pay an official for fees that we don't want to direct back at a client but rather pay ourselves. For example, if we scheduled a game in error and the official went to the rink. Another example, if we have one of two officials no show due to an auto accident (we had this case this weekend), we want to see that both officials are paid their expected game fee. Yet, the one in the accident didn't work the game so we don't want his name in…

Prefix and Suffix on Game Number
Ability to put a prefix and suffix on game code to be able to more easily determine where the game came from. With over 3000 games a year it can get confusing.
If a pre/suffix isn't possible, can you make the game number more than 8 characters to accomodate this feature? I could put it in the game number to help out.34 votesgathering community support · -
Prevent unwanted multiple positions from assignment
For baseball, we almost always have 1 plate umpire, 1 base umpire. When i created the positions, 1 base umpire max / 1 plate umpire max was specified. Change the assigning software to prevent me from assigning 2 or more base / plate umpires when i have specified a max of 1.

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…

allows an assignor or administrator to mark games paid even if not using the built in pay system
It would be useful to show what has been paid to officials when using other methods to make payment
