Running and Scheduling an Automated Handicap Revision Email

To help get started with handicapping administration we strongly suggest you set up a prescheduled report to be run after each Handicap Revision. GHP Online Club software has a feature to let you create this report and then have it emailed to you on an ongoing basis. Please follow these steps:

Step 1 – Use your internet browser to go to: www.ghinclub.net
Login with your club’s credentials:
Association #: @@
Club #: @@@@
Password: gasc@@@@

Note: You can find your logon credentials in two places:

  1. listed on the Club Credentials sheet (blue color) we sent to your club in early December as part of your start-up package. (This was the large white Tyvek envelope with posting holiday instructions, GHIN support phone cards, GHIN supplies price list, etc.)
     
  2. written on the back of your TPP Installation disk folder (if you or another Club Administrator attended one of our GHIN Seminars)

Step 2 – Select the “Reports” option from the menu list in the top gray section

Step 3 – When the next window opens, select “Handicap Index/CH” under Club Reports
in the Report Menu on the left


Step 4 – Set the following values:
Service = All
Print Group = <None>
Gender = Any
Holes = 18
Revision Date = Current
Status = Active

Sort Column = Member Name
Name Format = Full Name

Step 5 – If not already listed in the right-hand "Display" column - move the category items you want to see on your report to the right-hand box by highlighting the item and clicking on the single arrow that points to the right. You will note that you can move all items in a column by clicking the double arrows and any one item with the single arrows.

Step 6 – Now set the following values:
Paper Size = Letter
Paper Orientation = Portrait

Step 7 – Scroll to top of page and click on Run Report box at the top right.
A preview window will open. You may Export or Print the report from this window.

Next, check out the look of the report in the preview window to see if it looks correct.

  • If it looks good – click on the X in the top right corner to close the preview window and proceed to Step 8.
  • If it doesn’t – click the X and change the various settings to create the report type you are looking for and preview again until it displays the information you want.

Step 8 – Click on “Schedule Report” box at the top right:
Description = Create a description that will become the subject of your email.
Run Frequency = Revision Date
Run Time = Any time after 1:00am is an acceptable time to schedule the report.
Send To = the email address(es) you want the report to go to
(multiple emails can be entered with comma or semi-colon separators)

Copy To = other recipients
Blind Copy To = other recipients (unknown and unseen to the "send to:" or "copy to:" addressees)

Step 9 – Click Schedule Box
That’s it! You will now send out a Handicap Index report for all of your active members every revision day to the recipients you set up.

You can set up as many of these types of reports as you want. If you have a separate Men’s Club and want the membership chair to just get a report for men you can change settings (i.e. Service and Gender) to send out that type of custom report. The sky’s the limit on how you can use this very versatile option.
