PUMA Open Competitions – Sending Scores to the CDH

When sending scores to the CDH it is important that the information is as accurate as possible. Last season a number of users sent results where the date of the competition was completely wrong e.g. the year had been entered incorrectly (or not changed if the competition has been copied). To try an resolve this, a check was added to the 2016 release to make sure that the competition date was no more than 30 days prior to sending the results to the CDH. However, although the number of errors reduced it did not get rid of them completely.

In order to try to ensure that the competition date is always set up correctly, the number of days allowed to send scores to CDH has been reduce further to 7. i.e. you must send the results of the competition to the CDH within 7 days of the competition date. This should have very little effect on the way that you run the system as results are normally sent to the CDH within a couple of days of the competition.
