The assignment function can be programmed to exclude officials from being eligible for assignment to the same team over a certain number of times. There are four options for this function. Maximum per location, Maximum per team, Maximum for both teams, and Minimum Days since last seen.

• If an official has seen either team equal to or greater than the number programmed under "Max Games for Team" (aka, "Max, Each Team"), the official will be excluded from being assigned to the current game.
• If an official has seen both teams in the same game (a rematch) equal to or more than "Max Games for Teams, Rematch" (aka "Max, Both Teams") the official will be excluded from being assigned to the current game.
• If an official has seen either team more recently than "Minimum Number of Days Between Team Assignments" (aka "Minimum Days") the official will be excluded from being assigned to the current game.
• If an official has been to a location (regardless of who the teams are) more equal to or greater than the number programmed under "Max Games for Location" (aka "Max, This Location").

All of these numbers can be programmed to preferred values but can be overridden on the assignment screen. Early in the season, it might be useful to set the Maximum games per team numbers fairly low but increase them as the season progresses.

The default settings can be made under Admin -> Configuration, ASSIGNMENTS, Assignment Options.

The place to override the numbers while assigning is in this section:
