What is Import Match

Import Match lets match directors, federations, and athletes publish IPSC stage results on Scoring Services (also known as Hit Factor). Instead of static spreadsheets or PDFs, results become interactive: rankings, athlete comparisons, stage trends, and visual stats. Everything lives at https://im.scoring.services/import with three tabs: ShootingHouse (URL) for Brazilian portal results — paste, verify, import; PractiScore (.psc) for native exports from PractiScore app 1.7.x and 2.x — upload the .psc from Share → Export Match; and WinMSS (.cab) for WinMSS-registered matches worldwide or exports via PractiScore.com — upload, preview, confirm. Both file formats (.psc and .cab) unlock the same hub with charts, overall, combined results, and Match Editor.

ShootingHouse import (URL)

For clubs, organizers, and shooters with results on ShootingHouse. Steps: 1) Open Import Match and stay on the ShootingHouse (URL) tab. 2) Paste the stage URL (e.g. https://www.example.org.br/etapa/resultados-categorias/123/ — with or without www or trailing slash). 3) Click Verify — we tell you if the match already exists. 4) If new, sign in and confirm. 5) Track status (pending, processing, complete) in your import list. 6) Open the match hub for full analytics. You get duplicate checks, eligible reprocessing, and ecosystem integration (search, stats, hub).

PractiScore import (.psc) — app 1.7.x and 2.x

For clubs scoring directly in the PractiScore app (phone or tablet) without PractiScore.com. The .psc file is the native match export with stages, athletes, and scores. Steps: 1) With the match open in PractiScore, go to Share → Export Match and save the .psc. 2) Open Import Match → PractiScore (.psc) tab. 3) Upload the file and click Analyze file. 4) Review name, club, athletes, divisions, and detected country (e.g. BRA); fix region if needed. 5) Sign in and Confirm import. 6) Open the hub — overall, charts, combined, and Match Editor. Ideal for fast publishing after match day. Full guide: https://im.scoring.services/pages/import-practiscore and docs at https://im.scoring.services/docs.

PractiScore .psc vs WinMSS .cab

Pick the path that fits your workflow: .psc — direct export from PractiScore app 1.7.x or 2.x; immediate import on the PractiScore (.psc) tab; no PractiScore.com posting required. .cab — WinMSS or PractiScore.com → Export to WinMSS; useful for federations and legacy flows. Both unlock the same analytics hub. For live leaderboard during the match, see /pages/practiscore-leaderboard.

WinMSS import (.cab)

For national and international organizers exporting WinMSS .cab files — ideal for overseas IPSC matches, WinMSS events without a ShootingHouse URL, and fast publishing of finalized scores. We accept .cab files in the WinMSS standard from any compatible system — not only PractiScore. That includes WinMSS itself and other scoring software that exports in this format. Steps: 1) Export standard .cab from WinMSS (max 25 MB). 2) Open Import Match → WinMSS (.cab) tab. 3) Select the file and click Analyze file. 4) Review name, year, athletes, divisions, and region; search and fix region if needed. 5) Sign in and Confirm import. 6) Open View match — charts, overall, combined, and more are ready. Highlights: preview before publish, editable region, duplicate alerts, near-instant availability, and source shown as WinMSS in the hub.

From PractiScore to Scoring Services via WinMSS (.cab) — tutorial with screenshots

Alternative to direct .psc: post to PractiScore.com and download the WinMSS (.cab) export — useful for federations and teams already on the PractiScore.com → WinMSS flow. Illustrated walkthrough at https://im.scoring.services/docs#tutorial-practiscore-winmss. For immediate app import, prefer .psc on the PractiScore (.psc) tab — see https://im.scoring.services/pages/import-practiscore. 1) Post to PractiScore.com: in the app, with the match open, tap View Results, then under Share Results tap Post to PractiScore.com and Submit (title and passwords are optional). 2) Copy the URL: under Match Results, tap Share Posted Match, then Copy URL, and open that link on your computer. 3) Download the WinMSS (.cab) file: on the match page at PractiScore.com, scroll to Export to WinMSS and tap Download. 4) Upload to Scoring Services: open Import Match, go to the WinMSS (.cab) tab, choose the file, tap Analyze file (sign-in required), review the summary (name, year, athletes, divisions, and region), and tap Confirm import.

After import — hub and analytics

Your match joins the public catalog with a central hub: athlete search, navigation cards, and stage summary. Available views: comparison charts (up to 4 athletes), Overall ranking, Combined results, performance heatmaps, athletes per stage, best stages, and division stats. Matches tied to your account can be managed in My account (ShootingHouse reprocess per platform rules). More on the hub: /pages/match-hub and /pages/match-summary.

Trust and ecosystem

Part of the Scoring Services / Hit Factor ecosystem. WinMSS import does not replace PractiScore or WinMSS — you still register scores there; we publish and analyze the export. ShootingHouse matches keep their portal as the source. Docs: https://im.scoring.services/docs.
