Confirm Ratings From Database - Database Menu
Database Rating Confirmation
This feature uses your main database to make sure the ratings and membership expiration dates listed for a section are up-to-date. If any differences are found, you have the option of accepting the changes or not.
Rating Search Configuration: Database lookups use settings from the Rating Search dialog, including federation selection (USCF/FIDE/N/A) and database status label preferences. See Rating Search Configuration for details.
How It Works
When you run this confirmation process, SwissSys compares the player information in your tournament section against the data in your main database. Any discrepancies in ratings or membership status will be highlighted for your review.
Database status labels configured in the Rating Search dialog appear in the registration search panel, helping you identify database record status at a glance.
Membership Date Protection
Membership dates are not overwritten if the current expiration date is later than the date on file, since the member may have renewed since the database was updated. This ensures that more recent membership renewals are preserved.
