Set up for SI and SIAC dibber hire

This article will show you how to set up your orienteering event when you need to offer standard SI dibber hire and SIAC dibber hire at different prices

Step 1 – Set the fees

Set the fees for your event in the normal way. For each Fee Band that you have configured include prices for chip hire and enhanced chip hire for both seniors and juniors.

Step 2 – Include the Entry Form Standard Items

There are three standard items for the entry form to configure for chip number and chip hire. We suggest that you use the display order to group the items together as shown below:

If you aren’t offering hire of two types of dibber do not include the “enhancedChip” item.

The “chipHire” item controls the display of the other two items. On the entry form it is set initially to “Yes”. When the answer to hiring is yes, the “enhancedChip” item is displayed and the “chip” item is hidden and vice-versa when the answer to hiring is no. The result is that if an entrant is hiring they can have a standard hire or an enhanced (SIAC) hire and if they select enhanced the enhanced fee above is applied.

If the entrant isn’t hiring then the chip item appears and is required so the entrant must provide a chip number.
