TOES - Upcoming Changes

Details
Frontpage

Hello Everyone!
We are currently working on a number of enhancements in TOES and wanted to share with you what you can expect in our upcoming releases.
We are always interested to hear your suggestions!

Our Upcoming release

Mobile Users

56,9% of the users in TOES access our services using their mobile phones. So it should come as no surprise, that the first thing we are going to release is a set of (cosmetic) changes that will result in a better user experience on these mobile devices.

Recognized Organizations

We will be publishing the list of clubs/organizations that TICA recognizes. This list is also used automatically by TOES when you are entering a cat that is not TICA registered, to check eligibility for showing. If your club/organization is not on this list, you can contact your regional director to explore having them added.

Entry Clerking

We will be making some minor changes to the list of users that the entry clerk can use to add an entry for an exhibitor. This will make searching and auto-completing easier in this section and should improve the user experience.

Setting up a Show in the Calendar

The checkboxes "This Show will use TOES as its entry tool" and "This show will use the Cat Show App" will be checked by default.

Translations

We will be activating the language selector again, bringing TOES back to you in 10 languages.

500-mile rule

We will be fixing a small bug to make sure the correct RD gets involved when a club is organizing a show outside of the region where the club is registered.

Future Roadmap Items

  • Introduce a new advertisement system (pre-formatted ads) and disallow advertisements in the Show Comments section.
  • Set up an advertisement revenue scheme that supports the clubs
  • Bring payment for the use of TOES services directly in-line: real-time payment when you open the show
  • Move photos and registration documents to blob storage (technical change)
  • Fix some minor bugs in the marked catalog (*requires the use of the Cat Show App)
  • Automate the population of data into the Cat Show App when the catalog is run
  • Accept entries that were added through the Cat Show App into the TOES database
  • Calculate season scoring (Regional and International)
  • Generate Show Reports (*requires the use of the Cat Show App)
  • Generate Title application forms (*will only include data provided through the Cat Show App)
  • Generate datasets for an individual cat's scoring tracker
  • Activate the EMS color helper (matching EMS colors on TICA colors)
