In some cases it's necessary to transfer a player to another team. For example, Max Mustermann is currently listed at Team A and should be moved to Team B. You can change the player's team within the reports using the following steps:

For Match Reports

  1. Click on CREATE REPORTS.

  2. Enter all relevant match data, including the team you want to transfer the player. (NOTE: the player's current team may not be selected as the home or away team).
    ​
    ​

  3. Tap on SAVE.

  4. In the opened match report, click on ADD NEW PLAYER at the bottom left.
    ​
    ​

  5. Search for the player on ADD PLAYER FROM DATABASE.

  6. Select the player.
    ​

NOTE: For all new reports the player will be listed at the new team. However, for reports created before the transfer, the player is still listed in the squad of the old team.

For Single Reports

  1. Click on CREATE REPORT.

  2. Enter all relevant match data, including the team you want to transfer the player.

  3. Start typing the player name and tap on CREATE PLAYER.
    ​
    ​

  4. Select the team you want to transfer the player to.

  5. Search for the player on ADD PLAYER FROM DATABASE.
    ​
    ​

  6. Select the player and click on SAVE.

NOTE: For all new reports the player will be listed at the new team. However, for reports created before the transfer, the player is still listed in the squad of the old team.
