Time between seeing the same team
Allow assignors to set a minimum number of days between reffing the same team. Right now, if a team plays three home games in a week, the system would show the same official available for all three. I would like a switch, which was in our old system, to allow us to set a number of days for officials between seeing the same team. For instance, if an official was put in on the 1st of the month to officiate a team, and the number of days between games was 14, he wouldn't show up on the availability for that…

Automatically give a TBA to first response
When requesting a game from another official on the TBA board, it should be on a first come, first serve basis. Instead of having the official trading the game decide who gets it and have to confirm, the game should automatically appear on that official's schedule, the moment he requests it. This would eliminate any bias as to who does games, and simplify the whole process.

Select Email Notifications
It would be nice for officials to be able to select when they receive notifications and what they are receiving them for. Games added and Game day reminders should be default, but I would suggest that other emails, such as the three days out reminder, game changes that don't require immediate attention, etc could be options chosen by the user.
Also, like in the text messaging, I would like to see an option allowing the user to decide what time of day the assignments come in.

Mandatory Meeting
When creating Meetings, an option to make the meeting mandatory should be available. By selecting the mandatory option, the meeting would function similar to a game in that it will show on the officials calendar and effect official availability. Conversely, an non-mandatory meeting would continue to function as it does today.
As officials' individual calendars can be shared among different associations/leagues and update simultaneously, this would help officials manage their calendars and availability better. It would also assist in preventing assignors from in other associations/leagues from scheduling the official when they need to attend a meeting.

Follow up to a rating
It would be nice to see a way to follow up to a rating because I had a situation where a coach had given some false information and there was no way to follow up with the rating. Or a way to rate coaches.

Creates Referee Mileage Reports
Please consider a report from home to 1st site, and then site to site for balance of games, and then home afterwards for tax purposes.

shows the history of when people update their availability
Be able to see what date people updated their availability on. We have an issue where we schedule tournaments for a weekend and then after it's done, we get officials wondering why they didn't get assignment and their availability shows them free. It would be nice to know if they switched their availability after the scheduling was done.

Include payroll adjustment details on payroll reports
Having a description for any adjustments on the payroll report would make it much easier than searching in the Admin forms. Most officials wouldn't know this and end up asking the admin for help.

TBA Emails Opt IN/OPT Out
My officials find that the high number of emails during the season are an annoyance. It would be nice if the officials could opt out to receive the emails from TBA requests from their fellow officials, however, still simply view the games on the TBA board.

Reason/Comment accompanying Unassigning an official
It would be nice (and maybe an easy change request?) to give the Assignor a pop-up that allows him/her to write text of why they are un-assigning a game from an official, when they un-assign someone. This would prevent separate emails or texts/etc, having to be sent. This would be similar to an official giving a Reason when he/she declines/turns back a game

Game Breakdown on Assign a game via Master Game Schedule,
Our association uses members in multiple functions and have multiple assignors.
Assignors have requested when consulting master game schedule page, then assign a game :
When scrolling over fields PRIOR GAMES & GAMES (giving total game count) a little window that pops up with more detailed break-down.
For example :
8 - Timekeeper
6 - Referee
2 - Supervisor(You can already do a game comparison via the availability page, but it means having to jump back and forth constantly to verify which people have worked what, when trying to equalize game counts).

Coaches see just the number of officials scheduled
I don't need to see who is actually scheduled, just a confirmation that refs are assigned

Highlight games that are not fully assigned in the Master Schedule
I see that you have declined this request in the past, but please reconsider.
When you have a busy schedule it would be much more efficient to be prompted in the schedule itself for missing assignments..even if the # column highlighted, or changed colors.
When you have many games with a limited number of officials its beneficial to view missing slots with the surrounding assignments....this is why filters aren't necessarily the best option

Customize Information that is Synced to Google Calendar
I would like to expand upon the limited ability to customize how an assignment appears when synced to Google Calendar.
As it stands now, we can give a generic name that populates to the Event Title, and not much else. The event description has all the other details of the assignment, but it may not be presented in a manner that best fits my needs.
What I'd like to see, is the ability to fully customize how that assignment appears in my calendar; not only the title, but the description/details as well. Let me choose what information is provided, and…

Allow you to check a game once you have billed for it
I bill multiple associations over the course of the month. It would be useful to have a feature, like the one for getting paid, that assignors could use once they have billed for a game.
Maybe: Unbilled/ Billed/ Paid?4 votesgathering community support · AdminHorizonWebRef.com (Engineering Team, HorizonWebRef.com) responded -
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 Invoice Heading. Fonts, colors, logos, etc.
I like the invoice exporting, except the heading. It says Horizon Web Ref and is very bland. I would like to be able to customize a template for the heading to be able to add different fonts, colors, our organization's logo, the address of the receiver, just to name a few. It would be nice to be have full customization of the invoice heading.
