  • A dialog box can be displayed with whatever you would like to say.
    
  • The Music shows that the Routine Markup is applied
    
  • If the markup cost is enough to make the registration transition to a balance owed amount, the “Pay” button (configurable text) will appear.
    
  • The Registration will remain closed.

Import or Copy/Paste into the Roster and Routines

• Previously, Studios could import a registration from other Competitions that use TourPro. Now if they have an Excel / CSV file as an export they can use that to quickly create the Roster and Routines.
  

Roster

• They click the “Import Your Students from a File”
  
• An example file can be downloaded by following the “Click here to download an empty file you can use as a reference.”
  
• They can either click the file via the Choose File button, or, simply copy and paste the contents of the file.
  
• The system walks them through the process
  
  • Select the file, or Copy / Paste
    
  • Load the file
    
  • Select the Columns
    
    • For each field, select which column contains the values for that field. In the example file, the header row matches the columns that are needed.
      
  • Identify the Date Format
    
    • Different systems may export the date in a different format – you can select the correct format
      
  • Import
    
  • The results are displayed.
    
  • If there are any errors to what is expected that column will be highlighted.
    
    • you did not select the correct date format
      
    • you tried to enter “F” for female rather than the word Female
      
  • If there are only a few errors it may be faster to fix them, or, fix the spreadsheet and try again.
    

Routines

• The process is identical
  
• The “empty file” is generated on-the-fly to contain the fields that match your system.

Warnings for Registrations with Deposits

• If your event is using deposits, the Studio begins by entering the number of routines they are bringing.
  
• When they check out, the system automatically adjusts their “reservation” by the amount of unused routines. This ensures that the event can reach capacity.
  
• The “Checkout” button has been renamed to Pay and Submit
  
• When they click that, they will receive a warning message that they will forfeit any unused routines.
  
• If the system is configured to allow them to Make a Payment, it includes the instruction on how to simply make a payment against the registration without closing it.
  

Ability for Studio to Make a Payment without closing Registration

• The Submit button on the Checkout Summary page has been renamed “Pay and Submit”
  
• Unless disabled, the Studio can decide if they want to make a Payment Only, or Finalize their Registration
  
• Payment Only will take them to enter their credit card information, and leave the registration open.
  
  • If the “Payment in Full” date has passed, then the Payment Only option will not be available.
    
• Finalize Registration will warn the user if they have reserved more routines than they have entered, and upon submission, follow your preferences to Always Close, Keep Open, or Close the Registration if Paid in Full.
  

  
   

Streamlined Dancer Selection for Routines

• Previously after adding dancers, they would have to go back to the Routine List, find where they left off, then click the Edit button again. Now, there are new Next and Previous buttons. This will greatly speed up adding dancers to the routines.
  
• Imagine… you just imported your routines – now go to the first one… add dancers, Next Routine… add dancers, Next Routine… add dancers. It doesn’t get faster!
  

PayPal Integration

• Full integration with PayPal has been added, similar to Stripe and Authorize.net

Studio can now Print Routines with/without Fees on the Registration Portal.

While adding routines and also on the checkout page, the studio can now print their routines with and without fees.

Sort Dancers While Adding to Routine

When adding dancers to a routine, you may want to sort them by name or type. You can now shift-click on the column headers to select multiple columns to sort by.

Themed Header / Footer

• Want to change the black header to a different color, or put in a repeating image? We can now carry your branding even further into the system.
  

Enforced Deposit Fees

• When a Studio makes a deposit for 20 routines, but ends up bringing less, you can now apply a penalty for not bringing the number or routines they said they would.
  
• The Routine Deposit Penalty will appear on the registration during checkout.
  
• Previously the entire deposit would be applied towards the balance, so as long as they brought enough to cover the cost of the balance, there was no real penalty. Now you can charge them for the ones that they didn’t bring.
  
• The fee is recalculated every time they check out – so if they do decide to bring more, the amount of the fee will reduce.
  

Check the “Apply Routine Deposit Penalty during Checkout”

The “Forfeit” fee is applied during checkout.

Event Add-Ons tab added to the detail page

• Previously they could see the tab during checkout, so we added this to the detail page they can see after a registration is closed.
  

Reg Cutoff Can Be Renamed

• If you are showing the Reg Cutoff Column on the New Event tab, you can change the name to something else.
  

Student Emails can be captured

• Currently the students “guardian” email can be captured for processing of SmartWaivers. In addition, we’ve added the Student Email address.
  
• The student email is also requested while initiating a waiver so as to more accurately and often capture the students email address.
  

Added Custom Home Page Text

• The Custom web text by Event (Season Control – Edit the Event – Web Home/Deposit) on both the “Start A New Registration” page and “Open Registrations” page. This text appears under the Event Name

• The studio still has the opportunity to apply credits by using the Show Credits button.
  
• You can prevent the automatic showing of credits by going to:
  
  • Preferences -> Company Info -> Web Preferences (bottom right)
    
  • Search for the word credit – set “do_not_prompt_studio_credits” to 1
    

Ability to Not Show “Recompete” routines in Studio Portal Results

Email When Studio Imports from a Partner

You may receive an email notifying you when a Studio has imported their registration from another TourPro customer.

Preferences -> Behavior -> Registration -> Email Notifications

Invoices now include attendee fee total, which includes the sum of competition, convention, and addon fees instead of just an individual’s fees to attend.

Add-ons and Adjustments can now apply to a specific category (Student, Teacher, Observer or Routines) to adjust amount owed by category. This allows for an adjustment of fees to be calculated against before coupons are run OR for a manual adjustment of fees without the need to override any particular object such as the routine fee.

Ability to track attendee deposits by specific type.

If you select a type of deposit required for Attendees, you have the option to select All Student Types (All Teacher Types, All Observer Types). Previously you could only select the total number of Students / Teachers / Observers. This feature combined with the attendee limits will allow you to discontinue reservations for specific attendee types. Previously the studio would only know a particular type was sold out when trying to add the attendee as the specified type. Now, if there is a reservation, it will save that number of student types for the Studio. Combined with the feature below, you have full visibility and control of all attendee subtypes.

New Method to Sync and Load Scores

Previously all scores were synced as individual records when you did a sync. Given 500 routines, with 5 categores and 3 judges, on average 7500 score records would need to be created and synced across all devices – this took a long time. Now we are generating “score packets” that contain all the scores in a single file that syncs in seconds. The scores are unpacked and updated automatically.

There are a few things that you need to know.

• When you exit the Competition Monitor / Tabulator, a copy of all the scores are saved.
• When you enter the Competition Monitor, the system evaluates all of the scores that it knows about, and automatically merges based on the last modification date.
• Whenever you are presented with a dialog box, you will select the default option.
• At the bottom of the Competition Manager you will see the Local Event Score Loader. Generally you should not need to go into this utility. You can see for each event which ones you have scores on your computer and which ones there are scores available. You can click on the Score Snapshot link to see all of the versions.
• Scores need to be processed on our server to become available. We run the process regularly, but scores will not be instantly published.

The same rules apply for multi-room events – create the scores on the “master” room, then sync. With the second room, sync to download the score records. As the competition continues, you can sync as needed to copy the updated scores from one room to the other.

If your system does not have any scores for that event it will ask you to Load them.

If you have updated scores that need to be save, it will ask you to save them now. Generally click Save Now.

If the scores on your computer our not current it will ask if you would like to update them. Generally click Continue

General Improvements

• Award Presets now will always use the tie breaker score to put the “Technically higher” scoring routine (whether tie breaks are used or not) higher on the report. So while two routines may tie, the one on top performed better based on the tie break categories.
  
• Improved Running Presets from an iPad
  
• Improved overall performance of running Award Presets, especially when calculating and breaking ties
  
• Improved performance of “On-the-Fly” report.
