Players transfers
In simplest terms, a transfer of a player between two clubs will manifest in Comet as the termination of the current active registration and input of a new registration for player’s new club. Based on the relationship between the parent association of the origin and destination clubs, we can identify two types of transfers:
- transfer within the same country= origin and destination clubs are in the same country
- international transfer = origin and destination clubs are in two different countries
Note: Registration can be terminated only if there is no active contract for the player.
Transfer within the same country
There are two ways to execute a transfers within the same country which depend on the user's level of access:
One-step transfer
One-step transfer is called that way because the realization of it demands a very simple process which takes place within the framework of one registration center. The authorization to carry out the "One-step transfer" depends on the user's position in the organizational hierarchy. This transfer is triggered from the “Active Registrations” tab of the player by clicking on the “Transfer” button. A new section of the screen allows entry of the new registration details, mainly the selection of the destination club. User also needs to enter the end date of the existing registration and the start date of the new registration. Most other entry fields are already filled by the system. When the transfer is completed, the registration for player’s current club is automatically terminated and a new one is created for the destination club with status ENTERED. Both actions are logged in player’s history.
As always, the new registration needs to be confirmed by the responsible authority. One step transfer
Two-step transfer
Two-step transfer are logistically more complex because they involve actions from two different registration bodies. First, the player needs to be released from his current club. This means that his/her active registration for the club of origin will be terminated. Termination of a registration will be done by the appropriate authority from the current registration body. This user should select the appropriate reason for the termination. Note: Remember to check for active contracts as well, since you will not be able to remove a registration if there is a contract in place. Once the termination is complete, the player becomes available for new registration. Second step is to register the player for his new club. This is done by the registration center of the destination club. The process of searching for a player, viewing player details, and adding a new registration should be familiar.
