Competitor list import, failed mapping of SailNo

Hi,
I have a very simple competitors file. I am finding the competitor import function does not recognize SailNo.

HelmName,Class,SailNo,AltSailNo,Fleet,Boat
C. Pugwash,ENTERPRISE,E53111,E53111,ENTERPRISE,The Ark

SailNo is mapped to AltSailNo.

Anyone else having this issue ?

Jeremy

Using Sailwave version: 2.16.7

Works for me, doing a test on your example.

I just had to map AltSailNo to AltSailNo

I copied your file into Notepad and saved that as csv.

In Sailwave, I did Import Competitors Data from CSV

Hi Jeremy - Works fine for me

Although I don’t understand why you say you mapped SailNo to AltSailNo

The AltSailNo Field is a field for an Alternative Sail No. In your example you have the same Sail Number in both.

You also say you are on 2.16 - its worth updating to a newer version and enjoying some of the new features.

I didn’t. The software did.

The mapping process didn’t map SailNo -> SailNo.

I’ll upgrade and try again. Thank you for the suggestion.

Jeremy

Hi Jon,
Never mind my issue. I’ve found the feature to override the automated mapping. Using the RMB to select the intended target field.

Cheers,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy - You can change the mapping of all the fields. Sailwave makes a guess based on best matches and previous use but you can change them all to suit your situation.
