  1. Allow coaches to edit games without requiring assigner approval.

    Create an option that can be turned off for coaches and ADs to edit game details without requiring approval. Our coaches have access to the system many months in advance, and prior to the season it is painful to have to go in and delete games because the information is entered incorrectly so they created a new one or I have to go in an approve all game change requests. Make it an option though so that once the season starts or once I start assigning, I can turn the option off then all game changes require approval.

  3. Add ONE column to bill to personal that list their permission/bill to/organization

    When I export my bill to personnel in excel... I need to see what group/organization they correspond with. This is technically the 'bill to' they correspond with. I am making a master list and I can only find out by clicking their profile one by one. It should spit it out just like their town, number or email in the members directory.

  4. Set game codes/leagues only to specific venues

    Add a feature to either the venues or to the leagues/games codes to identify particular venues that apply to a specific league. For example, we have two leagues, one for softball and one for baseball which play at different venues. We'd be able to manage it in our league software, but here we could catch errors in scheduling and ensure that there aren't any problems with incorrect venues and leagues.

  5. Reporting on Membership

    We rank our officials (1, 2, 3) based on games worked, test score, and years of service. It would be great if we could run reports (like web enabled pivot tables) within HWR, including on custom fields.

  6. enables to set one specific zip code as the center point for flat rate mileage calculation as opposed to each individual umpire's zip code.

    When using a flat rate mileage from a center point it would be easier to calculate the mileage using the center point zip code as opposed to each umpire's home zip code.

  7. Provide Officials with a Payroll Report CSV export option

    The "Exportable Version" option does very little good when trying to put a usable payroll report together that I can use for end-of-year tax reporting. P
    Being able to export my payroll games in a manipulable file format would be highly useful.
    Or add the Fee Column to the Schedule Export to CSV option, as that's the important information.

  8. contact crew by SMS

    currently I can contact the game crew by email, but I would like the option to do this by SMS. Most communication between officials is by text - especially if it is close to game time. Young referees don't check their email regularly - I need to contact them by text.

  9. Don't allow officials to give games to unqualified officials using the TBA System.

    At this time, any official can request any game from another official using the TBA system, even if they aren't rated. This causes the assignors to constantly be monitoring the alerts. Is there a way to have it as a preference if the organization does not want unqualified officials to be able to request those games? It is good for them to see the games if they are in a set, but not be able to 'grab' them.

  10. Expand Manual Game ID Length to 12 Characters

    Hello,

    The game import is an important feature to bring games in from associations. The Game ID field is limited to 8 characters however some of the games being imported have up to 12 characters due to the association settings.

    Would it be possible to change the field length from 8 to 12? This will greatly assist with game updates as they come in. They can be updated en masse rather than one by one.

  11. Scheduling Fee

    Users (officials) would have to pay a fee at the start of the season to use HorizonWebRef. The fee would be set by the system admin and a percentage would go to Horizonwebref.

  12. Allow Assigners to send a TBA when game has been turned back

    I have games that are turned back, but dont want to remove the official until I have found a replacement, but send a TBA. (our officials do not have the authority to send TBA only assigners)

  15. has a column in the 'bill tos' section of the members directory that shows which bill to the member is attached to

    next to the contact to feature which bill to the member is attached to. This should be a very quick and simple fix and would help me a lot. When I am asked to contact one of our bill to's... I currently just look at which town they live in and hope its the right person...

  18. Customize game report fields

    Allow league/assignors to customize fields to be filled out in a required game report. The base report is overly complex, where most reports can get by with a simple score, team names, and field conditions.

  19. Hide score in the master schedule if not submitted

    After an official submits a game report, the score shows up on the master schedule... unless the scosre is 0 to 0, then it APPEARS as though no one submitted a game report! How about if you make it so that 0 to 0 scores show up on the master schedule as 0 to 0 once a game report is filed. Thank
