Tracking ice money and venue costs

Ice money for a team is the question of what the rink costs and which players are there that evening. 1Equal records it on the venue and on the event. It is not an invoice to the rink and not a payment system. The same record fits a hall in floorball, basketball and volleyball: there it is a venue cost, not ice money.

A venue with an hourly price

The team saves a venue: a name and an hourly price. In hockey that is an ice rink. In other sports it is a hall. The team enters the price. 1Equal does not pull the price from the rink website and does not publish its own ice price list. If there are two rinks, each has its own price. A hidden venue can be taken out of the picker without deleting history.

What the calendar shows

An event gets a venue, a start and, when known, an end. If there is an end time, the calendar shows the cost as duration times the hourly price. Without an end time that multiplication is not shown. A game and a training session each carry their own figure, so a longer ice slot and a shorter practice do not collapse into one number. It is a display on the event, not an invoice the system sends to the rink.

What is written to a player

When a player marks that they are coming, and finance is enabled for the team, the venue price is written to their balance for that event if they are not fee-exempt. The exemption is set on the member. If they later say they are not coming, that event entry is removed. Collected on the event is the venue price times the number of members who are coming and are not exempt. What is still open is visible too. Money is not transferred through 1Equal to the rink or to the player. It is the team's internal note for ice money or venue costs.
