How to Add or Release a Court on Events

Admins have the ability to both:

• Add courts to an Event

• Delete courts from an Event

An Admin may want to Add courts to an Event if:

• There is a lot of interest in one particular Event and the Club wants to increase the potential Customers who attend

An Admin may want to Delete courts from an Event if:

• There is less interest in an Event than anticipated and the Club wants to open a court up for other bookings

For an Admin to add or delete courts from an Event, the Admin would:

• Click on the Event

• Navigate to the Settings tab

• Scroll to the bottom section labeled TABLES ASSIGNMENT

  • If adding courts to the Event

    • Click on the “+ Table” button

    • Select the court name

    • Notice the court is added to the Event

  • If deleting courts from the Event

    • Click on the three vertical dots next to the court name

    • Select the option Release table

    • Notice the court is deleted from the Event

The video below shows this process:

Please note: when clicking on the three vertical dots next to the court name, the Admin also have the ability to:

• Unlock table = this means the court is not locked any more, allowing the PodPlay court assignment algorithm to move the Event on this court to another court, should the algorithm deem it valuable to do so

  • To learn more, read about:

    • Algorithmic Court Assignment (4th subheader in the article, The PodPlay Advanced, Managing Time-Bound Inventory)

    • Table Assignment Status icons

• Move courts = this means the court is moved from one court to another court

  • This is the same feature as the Drag-and-Drop
