Which report should I use?

Choose the right carnival download for a programme, paper form, individual results or points.

You may need a running order for staff, result sheets for officials, or a spreadsheet of results after the carnival. Each Houseplay report serves a different purpose, so start with what you need the file to do.

The table below will help you choose. An organisation admin can download these reports from the carnival Dashboard under Download Report.

Choose a Word file when you need a document to print. CSV files open in Excel and other spreadsheet applications when you want to work with the data.

Each report uses the information in Houseplay at the time you download it. Before printing forms, check that the events and entrants are ready. Before sharing final points or top results, check that the relevant events are complete. If you make changes afterwards, download a fresh copy.

Once you have chosen a report, follow How to download a report.
