This feature is available to all tournaments that are configured for Automatic Lane Assignments in the Tournament
Rules. If the tournament is configured for Manual Lane assignments,
the lanes can be assigned on the registration
screen. However, the Assignment Method can be changed on this screen
regardless of how it is configured in the Tournament Rules.
There
are two menu options to open this feature:
E)
Registration & Bowlers > 3: Assign Lanes and F)
Event Sign-In & Preparation > 6: Assign To Lanes

Note: When assigning lanes to linked squads,
select the squad with the most bowlers on individual registrations. For
example, if singles and doubles events are linked, assign lanes to doubles
squad first, then the following options will appear:
Yes, Do all related squads using Lane Movement: This
option will examine all linked squads (Events and Sets) and will assign the
lanes for all related squads (recommended)
Yes, But only from the indicated squad. No Lane Movement: This
option will only examine linked squads (Events and Sets) that have been
configured AFTER the selected squad. Linked squads configured to occur
BEFORE the selected squad will not be considered.
No. Don't use Lane Movement and just do the indicated squad for
now: This option will ignore linked squads and assign lanes
to the current squad only.
Cancel. Don't assign any lanes right now: Cancels
the lane assignment.
