Defaults can make your life easier.

Consider the 2004 California State Championship.  We limited it to 175 shooters.  Still, that's 175 people for whom we'd have to enter much of the same information.

We offered three lunch choices.  By far the largest number of shooters specified turkey/cheese.

We offered several T-shirt sizes.  By far the largest number specified XL.

Staff shot the match the day before regular shooters.  Staff also had staff sweat shirts.

Can you see where this is going?

I created one default consisting of match registration, turkey/cheese sandwich, Sunday barbeque, XL T-shirt.

Another default for staff containing the same items, plus sweat shirt and Friday lunch.  And with a separate staff registration fee.

And a third default, which I called 'Extra'.  This was for the guys who brought partners and wanted an extra Saturday lunch and an extra Sunday barbeque ticket.

So for each shooter, I could just choose the best default as a starting point and then customize as needed (perhaps change the turkey lunch to a meat/cheese lunch, or switch to a different T-shirt size).

Defaults are specific to each match that uses the Event Module.  The match starts with three blank defaults.  You can specify what they will consist of, name them, and enable or disable them.

 

 

The upper Change button lets you set a name for this default, and the text for its button.

 

 

The lower Insert, Change, and Delete buttons and the Quantity spin box let you configure items that make up this default.
