New Organization Settings Menu / Location

The Organization menu have been redesigned. The Organization menu has been divided between, Items that you manage for your organization and items that you set up for your organization. We have decided to move your organization settings and configurations in a better spot! We are aware that the settings haven’t been easy to find and we have taken all of your feedback to give you the best solution possible.

You will now find all of your ‘Organization Settings’ in the header menu ‘Settings’ / ‘Organization’. This module will list all the settings you have access too according to your current role & permissions. We have included titles and descriptions with a search bar so you can find the settings you need easier.

Transfer

It is now possible to add a default expiration date for all shares in all your organizations. When a transfer request is made the date can be added or changed, but if no is added, the default date configured by the branch will be displayed. The default date setting can be done only by the branches.

To set up a default share expiry, go to Settings / Organization Settings / Transfer Settings. Click ‘Edit’ then add the desired default expiration date and click on ‘Confirm’.

Access to All Registration

In this release, we will now allow any organization to see the registration from any other organization. For example, if a player is shared between 2 organization and the player has done registration in both organization, the information for all the registration will be displayed in the registration tab. This will also be the cased for any parent organization looking up for a profile. The registration tab will contain all the registration in a season. The transaction tab will still be the same, showing the transaction only for the organization that the transaction belong to.

 

Access to Download Receipt from My Account

This is something that was asked since the launch of the system and that we are now releasing. A parent will now have access from their My Account and select any transaction that was partially or fully paid and reprint a copy of the receipt that is normally received by email. In the Purchases menu of My Account, the side panel will now display an icon for each payment received so you can reprint the receipt

 

Position Change

For the MHA asking for the preferred position in the registration process, it will now be possible to change the selected position on the registration before rostering. In the member's profile under the Registration tab click on ‘Action’, you now have a ‘Change position’ item that will allow you to update the position.

This is available from the online store Registration page or from the member Registration page.

Display Member Type in the Member Profile

We are adding the member type to the display on the member profile. This was only displayed in the past in the member search. Note that the member type are per season and per organization so you will see each of the member type for the selected season.

 

 

 

Updates and Improvements

Registration Report

The registration report now have new fields including the position and the position group entered by the parent in the registration process.

Process for Inactive Members

If a member is inactive, their status will change to active upon the following actions:

  • Add to team

  • Sign waiver

  • Update member information

  • Publish address

  • Transfer/ share

  • Add as a clinic attendee + add to cart

  • Create a Background check for the member

Option to Remove Files from USA transfer

After a USA transfer was submitted there was no way to delete any files attached to that request. We have updated the process so now the permission is enabled.

Critical Waiver Process

There was a couple of issues with the critical waiver process, mainly in a case where a profile was shared between 2 organizations. We have updated the process to make it compatible with those cases. We have also updated the batch confirmation process of the waivers in the team roster to include bench staff in the process.

Transfer Notification

We are improving the wording on the transfer notification. The text was confusing and was not showing the proper organization name when the transfer was triggered. We have updated the text to make it more clear.

Move-In Year Field when Creating a new Profile

The 'Move-In year' field was not part of the creation of a new profile. It was only when you were updating a profile or changing an address. We are now adding this field in the profile creation so any new profiles created will now have that information.

 

New Flag on Address Sent by 3rd Party System

We are adding a flag in the address display of a member to show that the address are coming from a 3rd party connection. This will allow the registrar to see where that address change was coming from.

 

Sorting in the Waiver Tab

The display of the Waiver tab in the members' profile has been reworked a bit. By default it will show the current season first and the sort arrow are now enabled to allow sorting by season.

  • A new version of the member search will be coming that will include:

    • Search by email address

    • Search by registered / unregistered

  • Parents will be able to submit contacts and emergency contact from the My Account.
