'Tally' field in a view

Hi All,

On an individual competitor’s record, I can fill in the ‘tally number’ field. However, I can’t seem to add that field (and have it populated) on one of the reports under ‘Publish’ menu.

I’ve tried editing the reports (such as the ‘Sign on / Sign off’ sheet), but can’t find or guess the field name to have that appear.

In the end, I export as a CSV and do it in a spreadsheet, but is there a way to have a simple list of all competitors and their tally number through Sailwave, please?

Thanks,

Simon Langford

Hi Simon,

  It sounds like you have not allowed  the 'tally number' field to

be published. If the field/column is showing on the screen,
right-click the column header then select rename column and check
the box for publishing.

  If the 'tally number' field is not showing on the screen then

click columns on the toolbar and search for ‘Tally’ in the window
that appears and double-click to edit. Again set the field for
publishing.

  If neither of these work then send me the file and I will take 

look at it.

  The publish option "Sign on /  Sign off" option publishes a blank

form for competitors to fill in their own information. It is the
“Populated sign on / sign off” option on the publish menu that
will publish a list of competitors and their associated
information.

Kind regards,

Huw

Dear Huw,

Thank you for your quick response. The ‘Tally’ field appears and publishes with no issues, and can add it as a column.

What I can’t do is add it as a field to, say, “Populated sign on / sign off” field [see screenshot]. I’ve added ‘Tally’ to this [highlighted in screenshot], but despite the field being populated in the file, the contents aren’t showing (the field is blank). Perhaps the ‘Tally’ field is called something else?

I’ve put some dummy text in the attached .blw.

Best,

Simon Langford

Hi Simon,

Thank you for the information which I have looked at.

  When I open the Sailwave .BLW file you sent and publish

“Populated sign on / sign off’” report I get the tally column
showing in my web browser - see attached screen capture. I made no
changes to your file before doing this.

  Looking at the the screen shot you sent, I can see you are using

the "Populated sign on / sign off " report. What this window does
is allows you to add extra column[s] to capture extra information
that is not in Sailwave like signatures - one declaring going out
to race and one for declaring they are back ashore, for example.
The “Populated sign on / sign off” report will publish all columns
checked to be published; so if the Tally field/column is checked
for publishing then it should be published.

If you still have problems then I am here to help more if I can.

Kind regards,

Huw

Huw - I’m very sorry. I was looking at my column added ‘Tally’ (right-hand in your screenshot) and it’s not populating. I didn’t look to the left-hand side to see the same field, this time populated.

Sorry to be so slow, and thanks for your help - it’s much appreciated

Another alternative is to use the SWClist program included with the Sailwave install

You can choose which columns to publish and can have additional columns for sign in and out
