Add Referees

There are two ways to add referees in assignr.com:

• Import referees from a CSV (Excel) spreadsheet
• Add referees one-at-a-time from the People tab.

To add a referee:

• Click the People tab
• Click Add New Person

On the New Person screen, you can provide details about your referee.

Last Name and First Name

(required fields.)

Address, City, State, Zip/Postal Code

(optional fields.)

Phones (home, work and mobile)

(optional fields.)

E-mail (primary and alternate).

Any e-mails sent to a referee by assignr.com will go to one or both e-mail addresses. An e-mail address is not required, but a referee without an e-mail address will not be able to do much in assignr.com.

Login & Password

If a referee has not previously logged in to assignr.com, there will be a checkbox labeled Send Username & Password. To send a referee's credentials, check the checkbox and click Update or Create.

Other Identification (IDs and Grade/Badge Level)

These fields can be used to store identification numbers and certification level. The ID fields should not be used for sensitive or other personally identifiable information (such as social security number or driver's license number)

Privacy

Referees have access to a list of all of the other referees on the site. These checkboxes will allow a referee to hide or show their personal information from other officials. By default, a referee's personal information is not shown, unless the referee explicitly checks the boxes. If a referee checks the Hide Profile from Other Referees checkbox, their name will not appear in the People directory. Other referees will only be able to send them messages when they are assigned to the same game.

Permissions

Your user accounts can have any of the three privileges:

• Referee. Referees can view their own assignments,
• Assignor. An Assignor has access to view and modify all information in the system.
• Observer. An Observer has read-only privileges to all areas of your site. If you have a coach, athletic director, or school administrator that needs to view the information in your system, they should be granted the Observer role. By default, they do not have access to view personal details on your referees, but you can configure this so that they can view public details, or view all details for your referees.
• Account Owner The account owner has the capability to change the method of payment. This cannot be changed from the Add Person screen, contact assignr.com support to change site ownership.

If you want to grant a referee the assignor privilege, check the Is an Assignor? checkbox. By default, any new users added to the site will be granted the referee privilege.
