Once your Season is created, you will need to create your Levels. Levels are the second tier in the program hierarchy. They are the "leagues" or "divisions" that will contain the teams. This keeps certain levels of play grouped together. For example, the "Men's Over 30 Open Division" offered on Sunday nights. This is also where pricing is added.
Go to the Programs menu and then press Levels. Select the Season you want to create the Level in and then click "New Level".
Level Name: Choose a name that is descriptive and helpful for the customer. For example, if it is a Level playing on a certain day , you can label it with the day and skill level (Men's Over 30 Open - Wednesday).
Number of Games: DaySmart Recreation uses this number to help charge the correct Individual team (House Team) amount. The League Scheduler will use this number to generate the correct number of match ups.
Start Date: Choose a date that the level will start on. This date may be different than the Season start date.
Classification: Select the sport, sex, age classification, and skill level. These are options to filter the Program Finder by and will be displayed when checking out through the member app.
Program Type: You can create and assign your leagues to a specific Program Type to help customer search online.
Prerequisite Level: Leave as "Select"
Standings Type: Leave as Sport Default or change to Percentage Standings, Soccer or Hockey points.
Team Fee: Select a fee (product) that will be associated with this level. You will want the product to be the amount for the group invoice. Start typing the product name and click on it from the drop down menu to select it.
Individual Fee: This is the House Team fee or "per game rate". If you are not planning on creating any individual/house teams for this level or do not want your customers to be billed in this way if they create teams on their own, you can create and use a "dummy" product in the drop down menu to proceed.
Payment Plan: Turn this on if you would like to offer a financed payment option. Need existing Payment Plan created to assign. This Payment Plan will be used instead of the one assigned in the Season Settings.
Registration Form: If you would like to have your customers receive a pre-set form of questions that you have created to fill out prior to registration, you can choose which form to add to this level.
Registration Email: You can create an e-mail template (Settings menu > Customers section > Email Templates) to send to all of your customers that register to give them pertinent information about the level they just signed up for.
Roster Lock: If you choose to lock your rosters and not allow any changes after a specific date, add this date here.
Online Description: The information typed in here will be visible to the customer through the Member App when they scroll over the league name. It is helpful to give a brief description of the level for your customers.
Max Teams: Online registration will lock when max is reached.
Online New Teams Are: This is the default for the pricing structure. Choose Normal Teams if you want all teams created online to be invoiced. Or choose Individual Teams if you want all teams created online to be the individual fee model.
Registration Options:
Disable all online registration: You can close the registration at the Level if you choose.
If you require full on-line payment, it will mean that when the person signs their team up via Dash Online, they will be prompted to pay the entire team fee up front instead of only the designated deposit (if applicable).
Allow payment by check for group registration: For online registration, allows team to be invoiced without payment. Set a date the check must be postmarked by.
Display statistics: Shows individual players stats online. Adults only.
Display standings: Shows team records for the Level online.
Hide private groups at individual registration: Prevents customers from seeing private teams in the Program Finder, which also disables their ability to request to join.
Allow pro-rating: For house teams, Dash will automatically charge a customer the amount of games left in the session according to the games remaining on the calendar. Otherwise, it will charge the full session cost.
Age Restrictions: Set by birthdate or age ranges. Age range is based on season start date.
