Here are some frequently asked questions
concerning Sportscard Organizer 2.0.
How
do I enter my cards into the software?
- Cards are first entered into the
Catalog. All you enter is the year, set, card number, the
quantity you have, and the condition. If you choose to keep track of a card
individually, including price and even a photo, then the card is entered
into the Tracking List based on the player's name.
How
do I keep track of my card's prices?
- Sportscard Organizer keeps a history of
all the prices you enter for a card. From the Tracking List, click
on the Price History button for the card you want and a screen will appear
showing in a graph, the change in that card's price over time.
How
do I update the price of my cards?
- Sportscard Organizer allows you to enter
the price of a card over time. Once the card is entered into the
Tracking List, you give it an initial price. Then, when you are
ready to update the card's price, you click on Update Card Price, select
the card from the list, and enter the new price and it's corresponding
date.
Are
checklists provided?
- No. However, Sportscard Organizer
does come pre-loaded with the name of over 900 sets. And if you don't see a set
in the list, it can be added easily.
Are
price updates provided?
- No. The beauty of Sportscard
Organizer is that you are not forced to buy expensive price updates or
spend hours downloading prices. You enter prices when you want, from
whatever price guide you want.
Is
there a way to tell what cards I need to complete a set?
- Yes. One of the several reports
you can generate in Sportscard Organizer is a Missing Cards
report. When you select that report, you will be asked to select
the set you want from the list, then you will be prompted to enter the
total number of cards in the set (using a 3-digit number - 600 or 048
for example). There are limitations however. If you enter
a card with a prefix, such as 123A for an error version, the report
will show that you still need that card. Also, some insert sets
(especially memorabilia cards) are coming unnumbered and are listed in
the price guide under the player's initials. In those cases,
Sportscard Organizer is unable to determine what cards are needed to
complete that set.
I
have complete sets that I would like to enter. Do I have to enter all
the cards in the set?
- No. Enter the complete set into
the Catalog as one item. When you enter the complete set, enter the
year and the set name. The 'Card #' should be '000' or some other
high number like '999' so it won't get confused with a regular card, and
the quantity (#) as 1 (or how ever many complete sets you have).
Then Add a New Player and call the First Name "Complete" and the
Last Name "Set". Then enter it in the Tracking list.
In the 'Cards in Set/Box' field, enter the total number of cards in the
set.
I
have unopened boxes of cards. How do I enter them into the software?
- Enter the unopened box into the Catalog
as one item. When you enter the unopened box, enter the year and the
set name. The 'Card #' should be '000' or some other high number
like '999' so it won't get confused with a regular card, and the quantity
(#) as 1 (or how ever many unopened boxes you have). Then Add a New
Player and call the First Name "Unopened" and the Last Name
"Box". Then enter it in the Tracking list. In the
'Cards in Set/Box' field, enter the total number of cards in the unopened
box.
What
about non-sports cards or memorabilia? Can I enter them into the
software?
- Yes you can! Sportscard
Organizer is flexible enough to allow you to enter non-sports cards as
well as memorabilia. All you need to do is create a unique Set
(like "Autograph Baseball" or "Star Wars") and
enter a player or character.
