Automatically Capitalize
This is checked by default.
There are a number of fields in the header and while using the Edit Competitor screen that would typically be all in capitals. Having this option checked will capitalize those fields automatically. If you find a field is capitalized when you don't want it to be, uncheck this field.
Automatically Sort
This is checked by default.
There are many situations, such as creating reports, where the competitors should be in a specific order. When this option is checked, it will automatically sort the competitors, as needed. When this is not checked, it will always prompt where it would otherwise sort; to see if you want to sort.
- NOTE:
- Unchecking this is considered an advanced option. Be sure you know what you're doing when you don't agree to sort. It may result in strange outcomes!
- NOTE:
Save Time
