How to search customers in Nexxchange

Image Added

At the very least, you have to type in 2 letters for the first First Name or last nameSurname, followed by an optional comma, to be able to search for a player.

We will take Max von Mustermann as an example.

Notation in the system:

First name: Max
Last name: von Mustermann

The first part until the comma is defined as the last name, the 2nd part is the first name.

Note

This is important if you search using the

association

association’s search function.

The search function with the comma is mainly intended for the association search, especially Customers with a Noble title.

In the GolfSuite there is the field ' Name suffix - ' for double names, here 'von' is entered for this example.

Wrong search:


von Mustermann


With "only" this specification, the following logic is applied:
Von → stands for the surnameSurname.
Mustermann → stands for the first nameFirst Name

Right (possible) search:


von Mustermann, Max


von Mu, Max (the name does not have to be entered completely - if the search is reduced to 1 player, it will be filled in/selected automatically).

Golf Data - HCP management of Members

As a general rule, the HCP can only be actively edited by users via the GolfSuite for:

...

Different regulations apply to different national golf federations. If you have questions about your customer’s Customer’s record stored, required or something is missing, please contact your federation or the Support-Team of Nexxchange if you are unsure about how to proceed.


For instance, it is prescribed by the The Austrian golf federation Federation (ÖGV) prescribes that HCP HCPI-changes and management is to be handled by the federation .Meaning: entirely, but you can still upload the initial Customer record with the correct HCPI.

For the German Golf Federation (DGV), it works almost identically with a few different regulations (regarding Golf Club Memberships and other Memberships).

For the Italian Golf Federation (FIG), Members need to be created directly using the FIG’s Service Portal and then navigating and confirming the download (Administration FIG → Members Download).

When issuing a Sync, data is sent by the federation - Your GolfSuite receives this data and saves it.

...

Especially when uploading new members Members to the association, it may take some time until a new customer Customer record is created. This data has to be sent by our GolfSuite and then needs to be verified by the federation’s system.
