# Awards
OpsLog has a flexible awards engine. Award **definitions** and reference lists are
shared **globally** across profiles.
## Built-in awards
DXCC, WAS / WAZ / WAC, WPX, IOTA / POTA / SOTA / WWFF, **DDFM** (French
departments), and more — tracked **worked / confirmed / validated** by band and
mode.
## How matching works
An award scans a **QSO field** for a reference, by one of:
- **code** — the field value is the reference (e.g. state = `NY`).
- **description** — the reference's name appears in the field (substring, case-
insensitive but **space-sensitive** — "Hongkong" won't match "Hong Kong").
- **pattern** — a per-reference regex is tested against the field.
Plus **OR rules** (also match if any of these hit), a **leading/trailing** strip,
a **prefix** added to found references, and a **dynamic** mode (any value counts,
like POTA).
> **Tip — Hong Kong / Macau style mismatches:** if the data says "Hong Kong" but
> the reference description is "Hongkong", either fix the description to match, or
> set that OR-search's *Match by* to **pattern** so the reference's own regex
> (e.g. `\bHong Kong\b`) is used. In *description* mode the per-reference pattern
> is ignored.
## Live detection & manual refs
- References are detected **live** as you enter a callsign.
- You can **manually assign** a reference to a QSO (stored in an ADIF extra so it
survives export/import — see [[Import and Export ADIF]]).
## Reference lists & display
- **Import reference lists** for totals and names.
- Per award, choose what the Recent-QSOs column shows: **reference**, **name**,
or **both**. Award columns are opt-in per the Columns picker
([[Recent QSOs and Filters]]).
## Rescan
**Rescan** re-pulls the logbook and recomputes — it picks up fresh LoTW / QRZ /
eQSL confirmations (see [[QSL Management]]).
