The main administrative interface is a table of all the races in the database. The admin can create a new race, or select a race for Edit, Notes, Delete or Renew operations.
Notice the State column. The State can be updated automatically by the tool or the admin can update it through the administrative interface. This can have one of the following values
Pending - race was copied automatically to the next year (“renewed”) during Post Race Processing or by clicking Renew button. The admin is expected to confirm with race director that the race will happen and that the date and other race details are correct. This is set automatically through Post Race Processing or after clicking Renew.
Tentative - race director has confirmed race will be run again this year, but is not ready to receive the contract. This is set by the admin.
Contract Sent - race director has confirmed the date. Admin has sent contract to race director. This is set automatically.
Committed - race director has signed contract (electronically). This is set automatically.
Blocked - race date is blocked because of FSRC constraints. This is set by the admin.
Clicking the buttons will take you to specific views or perform some action.
New - takes you to Create Race view
Edit (requires single selection) - takes you to Edit Race view
Notes (requires single selection) - takes you to Edit Notes view
Delete (requires single selection) - shows popup “are you sure”, and if click OK deletes race. Actually race is marked as “deleted” and can be recovered if desired [beyond scope of this document]
Renew (requires selection of one or more races) - shows popup “are you sure”, and if click OK renews selected races.
This isn’t shown, but there will also be a way to filter the table display down to only show the events which are in a particular State. This is useful to look for committed races, tentative races, etc.
The transition from Pending to Tentative is done by the admin using the Create Race view or Edit Race view. This is optional, but could be useful if the admin wants to remember which races have had some discussion with the race director.
