Create divisions and allocate points by placing

Create, edit and delete divisions and set their placing points.

Your school may award different placing points for different groups of events. Divisions let you set up those points scales once and use them on the relevant events.

An organisation admin can create a division and choose the points for each placing. An event uses those allocations when it has the division selected and its scoring method is Division.

Create a division

1. Open Settings → Divisions. Check the existing divisions, then choose Add Division.

2. Enter a Name and the points for each listed placing. Give All Other a value too, even if that value is zero.

3. Choose Create Division and check that its name and points appear in the list.

You can now select this division on events that use Division scoring. If you change its points allocations after results have been entered, check the affected house totals to confirm they still match your school’s rules.

Edit a division and its points

1. Open Settings → Divisions. Choose Edit beside the division you want to update. Change the Name or the points for each placing, including All Other, then choose Save.

Check the saved row to confirm your changes. If results have already been entered, review the affected house totals against your school’s scoring rules.

Delete a division

Deletion is permanent. Divisions cannot be deleted while your school has any active carnivals. Archive those carnivals before deleting a division.

1. Open Settings → Divisions, choose Edit beside the unwanted division, then Delete. Check the name in the confirmation before choosing Yes, delete. Choose Cancel if you want to keep it.

Check the list again to confirm the division has gone.
