The Database

The Database controls what information to store on all the people who register with your account e.g. Competitor, Media, Marshalls and Officials. This information is collected via the Registration Form which everyone completes when they register with your club.

To find the database settings, click Account in the Settings menu on the left.

Then from the Account settings page, click the Database heading at the top.

There are some compulsory fields that are required for everyone like Names, Email Address and Date of Birth etc. These are highlighted in the blue section at the top. There are also columns showing whether the field is shown in the user's People Profile and whether it is required when creating their profile at the time of registration, meaning they won't be able to complete the registration form without providing a response to this field.

Each field can be edited by clicking on its name. You can also a add new fields for your database by clicking the blue + New Field button. 

When creating a new field for the database you can choose from one of the systems universal fields which can be used across many clubs.

You also have the option to add your own custom new field with a variety of responses. When you create a new Custom Field you will need to specify how the recipient is to respond. This might be a simple text response (e.g. a car number plate), a number (e.g. confirming the number of team personnel) a list of options that you provide to them, simple yes or no sliders and tick boxes etc. 

With each selection you will need to give the field a name and can choose whether the field is shown in the user's People Profile and whether it is required when creating their profile at the time of registration, meaning they won't be able to complete the registration form without providing a response to this field. 

You can then give an explanation of the field and if applicable, the options the user can select i.e. a list of items to choose from. 

You can also add extra headings and paragraphs into the registration form to break it into segments. Click the blue + New Field button and then choose either paragraph or heading from the bottom of the new field dropdown. 

Then once you have created your new Heading and Paragraph, click the re-order button to place it into the appropriate section of your Registration Form.

You can then drag the fields into the appropriate position and click the Done button to save. Below is an example of how the Heading and Paragraph will appear on the Registration Form.
