HSS has a new results export feature available to export class results in Cheval Quebec format.
The new export is available by clicking "Cheval Quebec" on the main HSS menu.
The wizard provides the usual class selection and filtering options.
A feature to convert show division names to Cheval Quebec results division names is provided.
The default cross reference is built in, however the user can also specify a different cross reference file if desired.
The cross reference file must meet the following specifications:
Two columns in the spreadsheet.
|
The first column is the division name to convert from (the division name used in the show), the second column is the division name to use in the Cheval Quebec export file.
|
The first row must be a column header row - IE: just the name of the column.
EG: ShowDivisionName and ExportDivisionName
|
The file should be in TAB delimited TEXT format. This is easily created with Microsoft Excel.
|
When saving your cross reference file from an Excel spreadsheet, pick TAB delimited format in Excel as the file type you are saving your spreadsheet to.

You can specify that a specific association (EG: USEF, ASHA, THJA etc.) number is required to enter the class, and which entities require the number - IE: Owner, Rider, Trainer.
If you specify that an association number is required, then HorseShowsOnline will force the user to provide the appropriate association number before they can submit the entry.

-
Division Champ Chart Tool:
A new feature provides the ability to compute division results.
The champ chart tool is accessible from the Divisions tab in show manager. Select a division and click the "Champ Chart" button.
You can also launch the champ chart tool from the "Division champ chart" item on the main menu in Show Manager
HSS will compute the division results (Champion and Reserve) for the division based on points.
A screen cast demonstrating how to use the Champ Chart tool is available at:
Champ Chart Video
The champ chart tool lists and flags as included all classes within the division.
Model classes defined for the show are also listed so that you can manually include a model class(es) in the computation if desired.
If a model class is defined for the division it is automatically selected for inclusion.
Checkboxes for each class in the division allow you to exclude/include a class.
Checkboxes for each class allow you to indicate if Bonus points should be used for the class. The checkbox defaults to the "Bonus Points" setting in the class record.
Default points values can be overridden if necessary.
Default points are the USEF standard 10, 6, 4, 2, 1, .5
Default Bonus points default to: 15, 9, 6, 3, 2, 1
When computing points, HSS adds the number of points in Over fences classes.
Under Saddle, and Model points are added to the entry's over fences points if the entry is within the top N (default 4) ranking of over fences classes.
In order for an entry's total points to include Under saddle and Model points, the entry must rank within the "Top N" (typically 4) over fences points within the division.
A setting is provided so that you can change the Top N value for unique situations. For example, for California split divisions, you may want to change the TopN value to 8.
A setting is provided for California Split champ / reserve placing.
When this is enabled, HSS will compute a minimum of 2 champions and 2 reserves in the division.
When there are ties for champ / reserve, HSS will attempt to break the tie based on the entry's Over fences points.
Champ and Reserve are determined based on total points.
When a tie occurs, HSS will look at the separate subtotal of just Over fences classes for the tied entries to break the tie if possible.

A comparison is provided with exports to Excel and PDF.
It is important to understand that a person may be related to multiple entries, but you should only charge the fee(s) once per person, and NOT for each entry. The tool should be used only for comparing USEF against what you have charged. DO NOT assume you have to charge for each entry. Your mission is to ensure the TOTAL overall fees you have charged equal what USEF expects.

- Show manager now displays the entry count in the status bar. The entry count represents the number of entries that are actually entered into at least one class in the show.
- Grouping on Add Back Paid report now adds a space after entries with only one class so they do not appear as part of the subtotals of other entries with multiple add back classes listed.

Oct 7, 2003 Version 3.2.63
Support added for "Sibling classes":
Sibling classes let you have a "master" class and one or more classes with the same properties that are related to the master class - in other words a "group" of classes. When a horse is entered into the master class it is also entered into ALL the sibling classes that are related to the master class.
With this feature you can easily manage double judged classes as well as triple and quadruple judged classes with total flexibility on a class by class basis. HSS numbers the sibling classes using the same class number as the master class with a .1, .2, .3 etc. appended to the end of the class number.
EG: Master class=200, then sibling classes would be 200.1, 200.2, 200.3 ...
Considerations with sibling classes:
- HSS will attempt to add / scratch an entry from all siblings when an entry is entered into / scratched from a class. Under some circumstances HSS will not scratch an entry from a sibling class. EG: if results have been posted to the sibling class
- Class entry fees are used for each sibling. Therefore the total amount billed will be the entry fee multiplied by the number of siblings (including the base class). So if you have the base class and one sibling, and the Base class entry fee is $25.00, then the amount billed will be 2 x $25.00 = $50.00.
- Prizes are computed and awarded in the normal way for EACH of the siblings (and master) in the group.
- Results are entered for each sibling.
- When entering into a group of sibling classes, simply enter the base class number. There is NO need to specify the sibling class numbers. HSS will enter the entry into all the related classes.
- The invoice will list each sibling in the group.
- Results and points will be computed on EACH of the siblings in the group. In other words, the sibling classes are treated just like regular classes

You can also immediately jump to this button with a CTRL-ENTER keystroke. This makes it very easy to jump from entry to entry without going back to show manager.
Notes on prize money applied to invoices
- Prize money / results will only be shown and applied to invoices after a class is CLOSED. Do not expect to see results on invoices until you close the classes the entry is entered into.
- A new field is used with cheques to indicate the actual cheque amount versus the prize amount awarded.
- When applying prizes against invoices the cheque amount paid will be the net winnings AFTER the winnings have been first used to credit the invoice.
- You will notice that in “Apply prizes to invoices” mode, you will still see “PRIZE” type cheque records in the cheques grid, however the “Chk Amount” field will be $0.00. The “Prize” field will still reflect the prize amount the entry has won. 1099 / Tax reporting still uses this amount regardless of refund cheques issued.
- When a show is running in “Apply prized to invoices” mode:
- the cheque printing system will create “REFUND” cheques and update the “Cheque amount” payable when you open the cheque printing manager. ONLY cheques that are NOT already marked as “printed” will be updated. Existing REFUND cheques (if any) that are marked as printed but have an incorrect amount will be marked as VOID.
- You can only access the check printing manager if ALL classes are closed. This also implies therefore that you must close all classes before any refund cheques can be created and issued. This is fair since you really don’t know what the refunded amount will be until all prizes are awarded and therefore applied to invoices.
- You should avoid issuing refund cheques until you are absolutely sure you will not be editing any fees, payments or other things that might modify invoices. Refund cheques are based on credit balances on invoices. Change any invoice amounts and you will have sent the wrong refund amount.
- Cheques now have a “Type” field to indicate if the amount is a refund or a prize payout. Refund cheques are created when you have configure the show to “Apply prize money to invoices”. The refund amount is the net refund due after applying payments and prize money to invoices. Their may or may not be a check depending on how much money an entry has won and their payments and fees.
- Changing the prize money award scheme after starting a show is not recommended for obvious reasons.
