Simulator Updates

This page allows the Tournament director to automatically update either the Event record or the Simulator or both with the actual times that were calculated by the simulator.

!Simulator calculated times may not match the times that were used to plan the schedule. This can happen if there are not enough courts or time slots available to start events at the planned time. In those cases, the simulator will move the start time to a later time.

1. This column shows the start time that the Simulator calculated for each event.
2. This column shows the start time that is currently listed on the event record. Click on the copy icon here to transfer the all of the calculated times to the event records.
3. This column shows the start times from the Simulator. Click on the copy icon here to transfer all of the calculated times to the Simulator. This will allow the TD to update the event record later with all of the correct parameters from the Simulator, including the calculated start times.

!The event record is used to verify events, create draws and produce the final daily planner. To speed up this process and assure accuracy, event records should always be updated from the calculated Simulator schedule as the final step in the scheduling process. (See numbers 3 and 20 on the previous page).

Be sure to save this page when done.
