Social Secuity Number in Assignments
Today schools/teams paying directly to officials require Social Security #'s for tax purposes...they are unable to gain that information from system. Can the SS# be added to game notification to schools for payment and tax purposes.
1 voteUnfortunately, we cannot include SSNs in email notifications as email is not a secure method of communication. School personnel will need to login to gain access to secure information.

Enable an icon to convert schedule to a spreadsheet
The spreadsheet will show partners with phone numbers, dates, times, game locations, and teams playing.
1 voteThis feature already exists. Schedule data is available for spreadsheet export at the top of your Schedule page. Hope that helps. Thank you.

gives a ratio or percentage of games worked with those an official is "available' for
i have some officials that are willing to work any game and others that only want the "good" ones (usually higher levels which means more money) (they are both/all level 3's). i find that selfish. i'd like to track how many games a ref says he is available for and be able to document their willingness to work in comparison to the ref who only signs up for the good ones and expects to get an equal number of said games.

Allow league personnel to rate officials
Allow league personnel to rate officials just like coaches and fellow officials can do.
4 votesWe’ve decided not to incorporate this idea. We have other user types that are available that would be better suited for this scenario. Thank you for submitting an idea.

Level / Team Block
Please have an option to block a specific level or team.
1 voteThis feature already exists. Blocking levels or teams are available with the Game Code Block or Team Block systems. Both systems are controlled by your scheduler and can be enabled/disabled by them. Hope that helps. Thank you.

League Personnel Dual Designation
Hi --
I would like to recommend "league personal" members be allowed to rate official's in the same manor as members designated as coach can.
Additionally, allow dual designation as coach and league personal.
Thank you,
Bill Mullooly
1 voteThis feature already exists. You may specify multiple designations for someone so you can add a League Personnel as a Coach as well. You would simply add them as if they are a new user and the added “new user” will simply attach to their existing account. Hope that helps.

At Initial Login I can see a list of my associations
I must choose which association to view. A link to view my other associations other than the one I logged into would be nice. there is no easy way to navigate between them.
1 voteThis feature already exists. You may simply select the “Switch Associations” link in the navigation menu to return to your list of associations. This will then allow you to easily login to any organizations that you are a member of.

App for windows phone.
An app for Horizon Web Ref for the windows phone store similar to Android and iOS devices.
1 voteUnfortunately, we’ve decided against releasing a Window specific app and will likely stick to just Android and iOS devices for the foreseeable future. Windows Phones can still utilize the mobile web versions of our system through a regular web browser.

Don't reset game clock when adding multiple single games (assignor)
As a scheduler, when I add multiple games, it's easiest to do it in the "add single game" screen, but they're usually one slot after the other. It is very inconvenient that the time resets to 800AM each time I add a game. If It could either stay the same or flip to the next game slot that would be great.
Additionally, the AWAY team is ALWAYS "VISITOR" in our association, so resetting that is also an inconvenience. These two slight adjustments would be a greatly appreciated change

Assignment Today Reminder notices
Great that all the information of the crew is on the notice. Could there be a printer version without all the dark colouring and shading - just a black and white version.
1 voteA printable version of this information is provided on the system by logging into your account. Unfortunately, we have decided against altering the email notification to be printable as that notification is not designed or intended for printing.

Add an adhoc umpire in free text
Sometimes due to no shows of assigned umpires or when usual umpires are away at state championships etc., an adhoc umpire or an umpire from another association not using HorizonWebRef will step-in on a one-off basis often at the last minute. It would be good to have a feature where we can assign a Temporary Umpire with a free text ability to enter the person's name which could then send notices to the assignor who is entering the details. We pay umpires on a monthly basis & need to be able to enter the person's name as free text so…

When assigning officials to games that are linked together, assign all linked games at the same time.
When games are linked together would it be possible to assign all linked games with the same officials instead of having to go to each game and assign the officials? When the games are linked together it is only showing you the officials that are available for all games in the link anyway.
1 voteThis is exactly how the game linking system works and is the main purpose of the game linking system. When games are linked any assignments you add to 1 game are automatically added to all the linked games. The game linking system already operates exactly as you describe.

remove block preventing scheduler from assigning an umpire who hasn't logged in for the first time
I have several umpires who are happy to accept/reject games on the system but they just won't log in the first time to set it up but are happy to tell me their availability for me to update it, but I can't assign them games until they have logged in for the first time. There needs to be a way to override this so I can assign them games.
1 voteUnfortunately, this is something we won’t be able to incorporate. In order to comply with SPAM regulations, users must opt-in to receiving the bulk of our emails by logging into our system and thus inherently accepting our terms and conditions. This also helps reduce problems whereby you add a user with an incorrect email address and start scheduling them. Once you realize their email address is wrong you would have to add the new user and redo all the assignments to the correct user which just creates more work for you. Thanks for submitting an idea, though.

Auto Fill Passwords and Usernames
My auto fill program will not fill in the fields for username and password. Somehow this is blocked on your site.
1 voteUnfortunately, this is not something we will be incorporating. Our system purposely blocks auto username/password options and programs for security. We do not allow and actively block password auto-fill programs. If you want the system to remember your username/password you will need to use our built in “Remember Me” feature which will keep you logged in for up to 5 days since your last login. Thanks for the idea, though.

allow umpires to swap assignments
We are about to start using your system. We have a general rule that if an umpire has accepted an assignment & they can no longer umpire the game for any reason they have to arrange for another umpire to cover their game. I'm not sure if you have this feature already but it would be great if you could allow them to contact other open umpires to arrange a swap.
1 voteThis feature already exists. It can be turned on in your System Settings using feature #44. Feel free to email or Live Chat with support for additional details. Thank you.

Bulk Resource Attachments
It would be nice to expand the resource attachment feature to allow you to attach resources to multiple events at one time instead of one at a time.

Include game length & fees in reminder email
In System Notifications to Officials and Teams/Associations. Include the Game Length and Officials Fees to game information data. It adds an extra layer of check and balance for officials expected game fee on an assignment and what teams are expected to pay based on game length submitted for scheduling.

Simple way for users to view locked dates
It would be beneficial if users could view with one click all of the "days locked for editing" across all membership associations. Or even if there was a one click to view it in an individual associations.
1 voteUnfortunately, we have decided not to add this ability to the system. We are generally not in favor of making it easy to obtain your “locked” dates since they are not intended to help you plan your schedule or availability. We do inform users when a date is no longer editable, as a convenience, however, making it easy to obtain all the dates that are locked is not something we feel is in the best interest of the system as many users would begin planning their schedules around the locked dates, which is not the intention of the locking system. Thank you for the idea, though.

A "Grand Total" earned in addition to "Total Earned"
(The "Payment Received" was a great addition!) You currently have a "Total Earned" at the bottom of each page. However, it's the total of that page ONLY. Could you add a "GRAND TOTAL" (reflecting the total of ALL pages) at the end of the last page?
1 voteWe’ve decided not to incorporate this idea. Listing a total on that page would cause too much confusion in our opinion since you would have no way of knowing how we are generating that Grand Total. You can obtain a grand total using the payroll reports which allows yous to see exactly how the total is being calculated. Thank you for submitting an idea, though.
