View Trials
Click the “View Trials” button on the home page ribbon and choose Trial Details or Trial List to display your Trials in one of two ways.
The Trial List page displays a list of trials in columns and rows much like a spreadsheet. Each column can be sorted and filtered.
The Trial Details page is divided into two parts. The upper part displays information for that trial. The bottom part (Classes Datasheet) displays the Classes that are a part of that trial.
The first column in the Classes Datasheet is the Class ID which is a unique identifier automatically assigned by the system when the Class is created. This ID is a hyperlink and clicking on it will open the Classes page with that Class displayed. When navigating to a Class in this manner the open and closed filter mentioned below is disabled.
The logo on the right will be your club logo which is set on the Clubs page.
The page is initially filtered to display only Open Trials. Change the trials displayed by selecting one of the three radio buttons to display open trials, closed trials or both.
The Trials ribbon has 9 buttons specific to mySWT;
