Find suitable classes

Use Find a match when you are looking at one waitlist entry and want to see which classes could take that student now. It is a quick search for one student. It does not add anything to the Smart Matches list.

For the full Smart Match search, see Fetch new matches.

What you need before starting

You can manage all students. The Find a match button shows only to staff with that access.
You can edit the waitlist entry.

Find classes for a student

Open the student’s profile, then the Waiting Lists tab.
On the waitlist entry, select Find a match. The Matched Classes window opens.
Check each class in the list:
- The day, time, and register.
- The instructor and the class Average.
- The number of free spots. The badge turns amber when 2 or fewer spots are left.
Select Offer Space on the class you want.

Result: the Offer Space window opens with the student and the class already chosen. Complete the offer. See Offer a space.

When no class fits, the window shows No matching classes available right now.

Which classes are listed

A class is listed when all of these are true:

It is in the register of the waitlist entry.
It has at least one free place today.
The student’s score is close to the class. The score must be within 5 points of the class average. When the class has no average, Swimio uses the class’s Default Score. When the class has neither, any score fits.
Both the register and the class are visible to account holders and Smart Match.

The list is empty when the student already has a place in that register.

How this differs from the full search

This quick search checks fewer rules than a full Smart Match search. It does not check the student’s preferred days and times, or their age. Check those yourself before you offer the space. The Offer Space window warns you when the student is outside the class age range.
