Uploading results to www.pyonline.org.uk

Hi everybody, I am a new user.

My club has not been uploading handicap results to the RYA PYonline website and it is time we started! The RYA has encouraged us to start by uploading historic series results from last year so there is a basis of data to start with, which is fair enough.

I had a go at this later today but found that I could not complete the first step of uploading them because the Sailwave software requires to race dates to be in the yyy-mm-dd format. To date we have been recording results in dd/mm/yyy format. Is there a quick fix that I can use to turn a series race dates into the required date format? If I have to go to every single race and use edit+race to change the format, that will involve too much work.

Hi

  Can you say which version of Sailwave you are using please?

Changes were made in version 2-23-4 relating to date formats and
uploading to PYS. So if you are using a version prior to that I
suggest you download the latest Sailwave version 2-25-4 from the
Sailwave web site[].

Kind regards,

Huw

Not sure but we are almost certainly using an older version. Thanks Huw.

Belatedly coming back to this question. We now have Sailwave 2.25.11 loaded. How can we change then default date setting for all series from DDMMYYYY to yyYYMMDD as required to upload?

I’m trying to upload to RYA website - using Version: 2.25.11 of Sailwave.

So dates were in dd.mm.yyyy format and wouldn’t load ( 400 error)

Changed them all to yyyy.mm.dd and message now is

Bad year for R10, 2018.04.22.

tried reinputting that date - tried changing year and eventually in frustration, deleting that (last) race - no help as error message just changed to Bad year for Race 9

I’ve saved, altered date format used different seperators . and - etc etc.

This is the most frustrating process imaginable for results and I have the full years series to upload.

HELP!

Anybody any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

Offending file attached.

Thanks

Hi Keith,

Below is what is displayed when you select the send results to PYonline

The section in Bold is telling you the formats of the date that are acceptable.

You need to use one of these formats - You seem to be using a dot as a date separator

If you still have a problem please let me know

Keith,

  I have changed the dates from 2018.03.dd and 2018.04.dd using

Notepad to 2018-03-dd & 2018-04-dd, where dd is the day in
your file. Once this change was made I had a successful upload.

Kind regards,

Huw
