Configuring Judge Allocation [setting number of reads per application]

Staff

13 Steps

This is an easy way to set criteria for a judging round - for example, the most common use is setting each application to have a minimum amount of independent reads. Please note items in the allocator can be adjusted throughout the judging round, but the allocator needs to be first created before the round starts.

From staff dashboard, click on Judging

Scroll down to the Registering Judges/criteria section

If you prefer a video walkthrough, click on How-to Video next to Configure Judge Allocation. It provides the same tips as this article, just in a video format.

Click on Configure Judge Allocation

Click on the dropdown menu at the top, in this example, it says 2023-09 HAB Round 1, but click on the red box no matter what it says

For a good example of a standard allocation setup, Click on 2023-02 IL Round 1

Click on Edit Criteria

Here you can set a minimum amount of reads per application you'd like for your judging round. 3 to 5 is the recommended amount; items can be adjusted throughout the judging round, but the allocator needs to be first created before the round starts. *****************

You can also edit the gender criteria and weights. Typically gender and number of reads are the main things you'll need - the other filters aren't terribly useful/are outdated, so if you use the IL 2023 R1 as a template, you should be all set.

Click on Save

After you save, you can see the live progress as a round goes on. In this example, looks like we have 1400 total required reads across all the applications, and still need 162. There's none available since this round is long over, but a number would show up otherwise.

To clone another round's criteria, just go to the dropdown and click on a program
