Update Competitor Classifications for a Match

Previous topic Next topic  

Before you can report on, and/or by, competitor classifications, you need to update your Match competitors classification.  This can be accomplished using two different methods:

 

1.Using the International Classification System (ICS), via an Internet connection.
2.Using the WinMSS Membership Database.

 

Regardless of the method used, the process remains the same:

 

1.Select Tools > Classification > Update Competitor Classifications for a Match... from the menu on the WinMSS main window.
2.Choose the Match that you wish have the competitors classified for, by selecting it from those matches that appear in the Match Name drop-down combo-box.  Be careful, you cannot undo this update (you would have to restore the match from a back-up).
3.Choose the classification source that you want to use.  Selecting Update Competitor Classification - Using the International Classification System (ICS) via an Internet connection will cause WinMSS to retrieve the competitor classifications from the IPSC.org web server.  Selecting Update Competitor Classification - Using the WinMSS Membership Database will cause WinMSS to retrieve the competitor classifications from the Membership Database.  In either case, User Defined classifications will always be retrieved from the Membership Database.

 

Note: You may wish to make sure that your Membership Database is current prior to a match, so you can select your competitors from it and update competitor classifications without an Internet connection.  Your match competitor classifications will not change, unless you explicitly update them.  See: Defining Classification
