Generating the Planner

Once events are verified you can generate a detailed planner for the tournament. It uses the parameters of each verified event as well as any court usage restrictions that may have been specified. The planner is similar to the snapshot planner used to create your schedule with two important differences.

1. It will list the matches in every event, including team names, rather than just match numbers. For round robin events, it will show all team names. For single or double elimination, it will show first round team names.
2. It has an on-time tracking function that gives a visual display of how well the tournament is progressing compared to the projected schedule.
3. A visual display of on deck teams and all teams that are available to play is only available if the planner has been generated.
   

Click the Generate Planner button to start the process. Click on the View Planner button to view the results.

*The planner can be generated at any time and will include all verified events. Newly verified events will be added to the planner each time it is generated. Events that are already running will not be changed.

!Unless specific courts have been reserved for specific events, the planner assigns matches to any available court. Actual court assignments for the tournament are made at the time matches are played. Assignments can be made by the tournament director, or automatically, if that option was selected at the time that the event was configured. Court assignment procedures are covered in the Running the Tournament section of this guide.
