Step by step
- Open Reports → Records and click New record board. Name it and choose what it covers: age category, gender, course, events.
- Commit builds the board from every approved result in your account.
- After each meet’s results load, record-breaking swims appear as pending records. Approve the real ones, Reject anything off (a relay split read as an individual swim, a mistyped time).
- Use Export (PDF or Excel) to print or share boards, and put them on your website with the Records block. The site updates as records change.
- Need to fix history? Click a record. The dialog asks what to do: View other top times for this event, Remove this record or Manually add a record in its place.
- After you remove a record, Commit lists the event’s next-fastest times, leaving out copies of the swim you removed. Pick one and click Set as new record, or click Leave this event empty.

Common questions
Our records live in a spreadsheet from 1998. Enter the standing records by hand on the board, then let results take over from here. We can also help import old results; email team@commitswimming.com.
I hid a bad result. Does the board fix itself? Yes. Hiding a result or rejecting a record pulls it off every board it held and fills the slot with the next qualifying swim.
I left an event empty. Will the next upload fill it? No. An event you emptied stays empty through later uploads, hidden swims and rechecks. It fills again when you set a record there, add one by hand, or approve a new pending record.
Two boards with the same name? Commit warns when you save a board under a name another board uses, with Change name or Save anyway.
Why didn’t a record update? Records come from approved meets. Check the meet’s status under Meets → Results, then the pending records list.
Can boards be public? Yes, through the website’s Records block. See pages and blocks.
