Sharing the schedule with the crew
How the queued-changes batch + Share schedule flow work together, make every site / report-time / assignment change you want, then fan one consolidated email out per official.
Bluebridge holds your assignment, site-placement, and report-time changes in a queue instead of emailing every official the moment you tap something. Once the schedule is where you want it, you fire the queued changes in two passes: "Publish N changes" sends out the assignments / removals, and "Share schedule" emails each affected official their personal day-by-day list.
What gets queued
- Assigning an official to a date (Assigned status), emails on Publish.
- Removing an assignment / granting a release, emails the official on Publish.
- Marking or unmarking the head referee, emails on Publish.
- Placing an accepted official on a site or moving them between sites, surfaces in the next Share schedule.
- Typing or editing a per-official report time, surfaces in the next Share schedule.
"Publish N changes", bottom of Upcoming events
When at least one queued state change exists (assignment, removal, head-referee toggle), a "Publish N changes to M officials" button appears at the bottom of the Upcoming events card. Clicking it fans out the per-official emails, assigned officials get an assignment email, released officials get a "you've been released" email, head referee gets a designation email. The badge clears once everything's sent. (Distinct from an official-side Release, which is when an official asks to be removed from an assignment.)
"Share schedule with the crew", site + report-time updates
Distinct from Publish: "Share schedule" emails every accepted official whose site or report time has moved since the last share. The preview modal lists each affected official + their FULL personal day-by-day schedule (not just the deltas) with the dirty days tagged NEW. Officials whose rows haven't changed are excluded from the fan-out, so re-clicking with no new edits sends nothing.
Typical assignor flow
- Open the tournament detail page. Use "+ Assign" on each date to assign officials; place accepted ones on sites; type their report times.
- When you're done shaping the day(s), scroll to the bottom of the Upcoming events card. Tap "Publish N changes to M officials" to fire the assignment / release emails.
- Then tap "Share schedule with the crew" (header of the Sites card on tournaments) to email the affected officials their personal day-by-day breakdown.
- You can run either CTA as often as you like, each one only emails people who have unsent changes.
