Best practices

A few recommendations to get the most out of CallUp day-to-day and avoid common pitfalls.

Before the season​

  • Create your categories (Seniors, U13, Leisure, etc.) before adding many members at once: categorization is faster and more reliable when done as a flow.
  • Prepare the role tree: identify the presidents and managers, then the "parent" members who manage child profiles.

During the season​

  • Review event responses before creating a call-up: the eligible players list is computed from the present responses.
  • Ask everyone to use "Add to calendar" on their call-up: each person downloads the ICS file for their own calendar. The file is not pushed to members' calendars and does not update itself: let them know if anything changes.
  • Anticipate the line-up for a match as soon as the call-up is ready: the field layout becomes available at that point.

Permissions and security​

  • Keep line-up editing to the authorized staff only (president, manager); players and parents view it read-only.
  • Deleting a child profile is irreversible (anonymization): confirm with the parent before any deletion.
