Corral as Athlete Type

[MarkE]

Is there a way to map the RSU "Corral" field to the ART "Athlete Type" field?  I had a race map their Beginner, Intermediate and Expert categories to the Corral field.  We are intending to use dynamic bib assignment on race day so would like to have this mapped before the event and have it pulled in automatically during the event as people are registering.

Yes, there is a "way", but it takes a little bit of data manipulation.

Currently "Corral" info gets thrown into the "Announcer Notes" field when you sync with RunSignUp.

So you could pull everyone down from RunSignUp, export all participant info to CSV file, drag the "Announcer Notes" column over onto the "Athlete Type" column, and then re-import the file. If the only change the participant data is the new "Athlete type" then of course all other info stays the same and only the Athlete Type is updated.
