Decision Centre
A task list of contract, option and squad decisions that need attention, grouped by urgency.
The Decision Centre collects every decision that needs to be made for the selected team and season into one list, ordered by deadline. It works like an inbox: each row is one decision, and it can be marked as completed once it is handled.
What appears in the list
Items are created from data elsewhere in Agones. Nothing is entered on this page directly.
| Type | When it appears | Due |
|---|---|---|
| Contract | A player's contract ends on or before the end of the selected season | The contract end date |
| Option | A contract has an option deadline in the next twelve months (or up to a week overdue) | The option deadline |
| Contract decision | A player has a contract decision for the season (Extend, Sell, Last season or Undecided) | The end of the season |
| Deal action | An open action with a due date on a deal (Recruitment & transfers only) | The action's due date |
Only players assigned to the selected team are included, and sold players are left out. A deal action appears when its deal is still open and either belongs to the selected team or to no team in particular.
Each row shows the player (or deal), what is at stake, a short recommendation and the deadline. The player or deal name opens the player profile or the deal page.
Recommendations
| Situation | Recommendation shown |
|---|---|
| Contract expiring | Decide whether to renew, release, or transfer before expiry |
| Contract already expired | Resolve the status immediately |
| Option deadline | Confirm whether the club will exercise the option |
| Decision: Extend | Open extension talks with the agent |
| Decision: Sell | Explore the transfer market and set an asking price |
| Decision: Last season | Plan the replacement; watch for a late sale |
| Decision: Undecided | Decide between an extension and letting the contract run out |
For deal actions, the line underneath shows the deal type, stage and the other club.
Groups and priority
The list is grouped by how soon each item is due:
- Urgent: priority Urgent, or due within three days (including overdue items)
- This week: due within seven days
- This month: due within 30 days
- Later: due further ahead, or without a deadline
- Completed: collapsed by default; select the heading to expand it
Priority is set automatically from the type and the time left:
| Type | Urgent | High | Medium | Low |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contract | 30 days or less | 90 days or less | Later | — |
| Option | 14 days or less | 60 days or less | Later | — |
| Contract decision | — | Extend, Sell, Undecided | Last season | — |
| Deal action | 3 days or less | 7 days or less | 30 days or less | Later |
The Due column shows the date and a relative label such as Tomorrow, In 12 days or 3 days overdue. Overdue dates are highlighted, and the page header shows the number of open and overdue items.
Filter by type
Tabs at the top filter the list: All, Contracts, Options, Contract decisions and, with Recruitment & transfers, Recruitment. Each tab shows the number of open items.
Mark as completed
Select the circle at the start of a row to mark it as completed. Completed items move to Completed and show who completed them and when. Select the circle again to reopen an item.
- Contract, option and contract decision items are completed per club and stay completed for every member.
- Completing a deal action completes the action on the deal itself, so it is also done on the deal page. The item then leaves the list; Undo in the confirmation message reverses it.
Only the Football Director can complete or reopen contract, option and contract decision items. Deal actions can be completed by roles that work on recruitment (Football Director and Recruitment). Other roles see the list read-only.
