Providing Multiple Results For Boat(s) in a Race.
Preamble:
- TopYacht expects that only one race per series is set up at any one time. That race is “completed” before the next race is set up for that Series.
- Auto updating Handicaps normally adjust within one Series not across several Series although this can be achieved if needed.
Option 1: Results Groups
This provides multiple results for any boat(s) within a Series. Example IRC Handicap results for Race 4 and at the same time as Club handicap results for the same race.
Option 2: Sessions
A common entry screen is used to input finish times for Multiple Series at the one time. Further, if a boat is in some of those multiple Series then the single entry of a finish time will be allocated to all the series for which that boat is an entrant.
Option 3: Parent Child Linked Races
Using this approach finish times are entered into a Parent Series. The race is processed and checked in the parent Series, and then a race is set up in the Child Series. This (child) race is linked to a race of the parent and uses the start and finish times of the parent, as well as handicaps (Optional)
Option 4: A Combination of the Above:
The above can be mixed and matched to suit the clubs calendar.
