Q: I am using a Handicap Service to maintain Handicap Indexes and would like my player Handicap Indexes to automatically update daily in the Event Roster. How can this be done?
A: Clubs that are using GHIN, WHS UK, and GOLF Link can allow the system to update handicap indexes in the event roster from the master roster on the day of a round. To allow this to happen a few conditions must be met:
You are a GHIN, WHS UK, or GOLF Link customer
The feature to allow daily automatic Handicap Index updates from the Master Roster is enabled.
This feature is enabled (more details below)
The event/league has at least one round scheduled for that day.
To enable and allow the system to update Handicap Indexes on the day of a round in an Event/League, follow these instructions:
Go to Customer Center > Customer Settings > Default Settings > Handicap Settings.
Select the option to "Automatically update Handicap Indexes in the Master Roster, every day at..." and enter the daily time of updating.
To automatically update all future event/league Handicap Indexes daily in the event/league roster, additionally check the box for "Automatically update Handicap Indexes from the Master Roster into Event Roster" (as shown below).
Note: To only update Specific Event/League Handicap Indexes automatically daily, do not check the box for "Automatically update Handicap Indexes from the Master Roster into Event Roster" (as previously noted). Save these global settings, then, within the specific Event/League, go to Event/League > Event/League Profile > Handicap Setting. In the section for Handicap Index service, check the box "Automatically update Handicap Indexes from the Master Roster into Event Roster."Click "Save."
The Handicap Indexes will then be set to be updated in the Master Roster daily at the selected time and then automatically update in any event or league with this feature enabled with a round that day.
