Hurdles or technical events Startgroups with different weights

Question

Since it is technically more convenient to have the JjunA and JjunB shot put together, I have created a Shot Put startgroup (a kind of "Shot Put 6kg" startgroup), but when adding competitors to this startgroup, I can only add JjunAs. I also run into this problem with other Startgroups based on different weights or hurdle heights.

You can merge different categories into 1 startgroup. However, this is only possible for the exact same event.

Athletics.app sees "Shot put 6kg" as a different event than "Shot put 5kg".

To get these categories on 1 Startlist, you can choose to select the general event "Shot Put" (without weight specification) for both categories.

Please note that this will affect the weight shown on the Startlists, see also this question. 

It is also often decided to have 2 separate startgroups, so that the correct weight is entered on the jury form. You then receive 2 separate jury forms that the jury completes one after the other. You can set the start and end time of both startgroups to the same time.
