Entering Match Scorecards
This is a guide to help users with the process to enter or edit a scorecard. It assumes that match fixtures have already been entered.
Step 1 - Login
Login to the admin panel. Your username is your email address and your password would have been emailed to you when you were set up as a user. If you can't find your password then try the Lost Password link on this login page.
Step 2 - Find your match
You will open up into the list of matches. Find the match that you need to enter the results for using the search option and page buttons.
Step 3 - Enter the match result
Click on the Edit Results icon (the trophy icon) next to the match to update the overall match results - including margin, captains, keepers and match result. If you have trouble finding player names then see Step 4 on how to correct this.
Step 4 - Add/edit innings scorecards
From the Match Results page (step 3), click on the Edit button next to the innings that you wish to update. Be sure to select the correct batting team since it will affect what player names are shown. Innings need to be entered in the order in which they are played. If you make a mistake with the innings order, you can move the innings around by dragging the arrow icons on the left of each innings.
Enter batters, fielders, bowlers, scores, extras, FOW etc. on the innings scorecard page.
To select players: Enter the first two letters of the player's name in the player text boxes to search for the player. If you are unable to find the player in the selection list then either their player record doesn't exist, they are assigned to a different club or they are not marked as 'active'. These issues can be corrected via the 'Players' menu option and then editing/adding the respective player record.
If you don't have access to add or edit players then you can safely leave the player name blank but still fill in their results. Notify your administrator that you could not add that particular player to that match.
A tip for those operating the system as a single club - you don't need to enter the opposition's player names - these can be left blank and will save you some time. See Q16 in the FAQ for more details.
If you are running a limited overs competition then be sure to enter the MaxOvers field since it is required for correct Net Run Rate calculations.
Hit Save. Warnings will appear if you have made any mistakes when entering the innings details.
Repeat this step for all subsequent innings
Step 5 - Reviewing and saving the match
You will be taken back to the match results screen. You can check the batting and bowling totals for each innings to ensure they match.
If you have access, you can approve the match by checking the "Approval - Yes" radio button. Approved matches are locked so that no further changes can be made by anyone without access to approve a match. Once the match is approved then data from that match will be included in all statistics reports.
