How do I add a round?

There are two ways to add a new round in getSoapy:

Add a round from the rounds page

  1. Go to Plan > Rounds.

  2. Click on the menu icon in the top-right corner and select + Add round (or click Add a round below under any existing rounds).

Rounds menu

  1. Enter a name in the Round Name field.

Round edit form

  1. To keep the round optimised automatically, toggle the Keep optimised option. If you don't select this option, you can re-order jobs and optimise the round manually later (see How do I manage rounds?).

  2. Click Submit to save your new round.

That's it, round added! Now you'll need to add jobs to this round.

Add a round from a job

If you're in the middle of adding or editing a job, use this method to create a new round on the go.

  1. From the Add Job or Edit Job form, click + Add round.

Round section on the job form

  1. Enter a name in the Round Name field.

Round edit form

  1. To keep the round optimised automatically, toggle the Keep optimised option. If you don't select this option, you can re-order jobs and optimise the round manually later (see How do I manage rounds?).

  2. Click Submit to save your new round and assign the current job to the new round.

That's the round added. Now you can continue adding or editing your job. When you're done, see How do I add a job to a round? to add other jobs to the round.
