Splitted Class Management — User Guide
When a class is too big, it is split into two competitions — Group 1 and Group 2 — that run in parallel and are ranked separately. The riders qualified for the next round must then come from both groups, fairly.
This extension merges the results of the two groups into one ranked list and writes it into an Equipe list.
How the merge works
The two groups are interleaved:
1st of Group 1, 1st of Group 2, 2nd of Group 1, 2nd of Group 2, and so on.
This keeps each rider's rank within their own group, instead of comparing times or faults between two different competitions.
Are left out:
- riders without a result yet (not started, or results not published);
- a horse that already appears higher in the merged list (e.g. the same horse in both groups): only the first line is kept.
The position in the merged list becomes the starting order in the destination list.
Before you start
- The results of both groups are entered and published in Equipe.
- Create in Equipe the destination list that will receive the merged riders.
Use a list dedicated to this purpose: its content is replaced at each import. Official FEI classes are never offered as destination, so they cannot be overwritten by mistake.
1. Open the extension
Open it from the show in Equipe. Three drop-down lists and two buttons appear.
2. Choose the classes
| Field | What to choose |
| Splitted Class Group 1 | The first half of the split class |
| Splitted Class Group 2 | The second half |
| Grouped List | The destination list for the merged riders |
3. Generate the list
Click Generate Qualified riders list. The merged list is displayed:
# · Horse # · Rider Name · Horse · Nation · Result Preview · From
The From badge shows whether the rider comes from Group 1 or Group 2.
Check the order and the number of riders. Nothing has been written to Equipe yet.
4. Import into Equipe
Click Import Qualified riders to Equipe. While the spinner turns, the extension:
- empties the destination list;
- adds every rider of the merged list, with their horse number, their starting order and their result.
When the spinner stops, open the list in Equipe to check it: no confirmation message is shown.
⚠️ The import replaces the whole content of the destination list and cannot be undone. Always check the generated list before importing.
Using the list for qualifications
The merged list can then be used as a qualification class in the Qualifications extension: select it and tick Qualif 1 is a grouped list (or Qualif 2).
Limits
- Two groups only: a class split into three or more groups cannot be merged.
- No undo: what was in the destination list before the import is lost.
FAQ
The table is empty after Generate. No rider has a published result yet: publish the results of both groups in Equipe.
There are fewer riders than expected. Some riders have no result yet, or the same horse was in both groups (it is kept only once).
The Import button stays greyed out. Click Generate Qualified riders list first and wait for the table.
My destination list is not offered. Only plain lists are offered: not an FEI class, not a multi-use list. Create a new list dedicated to the merge.
The extension does not load the classes. Close it and open it again from the show in Equipe. If the problem persists, contact the administrator with the show number.
