The Individual and Team Finals, or Elimination and Final Rounds, are one of the most important
stages in a tournament. Though they can seem hard to be managed at first, once the user will learn the basic
management method, organizing national competitions will be much easier and flawless.

== Setting the Elimination Round ==
Before starting the Elimination Round, the user has to check for any tied scores, mainly, in the last place
granting access to the Finals. When there are tied archers, the user can check their ranking through the windows
that can be opened clicking on:

'''''Individual Finals''''' → '''''Check shoot-off before final rounds'''''

All the tournament Divisions and Classes highlighted in red concern tied archers (as in the first row of both
the '''''Individual Finals''''' menu, and the '''''Team Finals''''' one; see Figure 4.1). This is not a mistake in the data
management, it simply points out the shoot-offs to be broken before starting Final Rounds.

<placeholder: Figure 4.1: The menu highlighting shoot-offs to be broken before starting Final Rounds>

To break shoot-offs and proceed to Elimination and Final Rounds, the user has to click ''OK'' on each screen,
after choosing ''All'' (or the wished Division) in the drop-down menu (meaning that the user has to confirm each
selected Division and Class), so that the program will save that there are no shoot-offs to break. In case of
shoot-offs, matches will be highlighted, and, once ties are shot, the user can simply input the scores of the
shooting athletes to break them (on the right) and modify the relative position in final rankings (on the left).

<placeholder: Figure 4.2: Shoot-offs to be broken, with tie scores and Final Ranking position.>

Once scores are entered, the user can click on ''OK'' and break the tie (see Figure 4.2). To view the last updates
in the rankings and check for shot-offs, the user can click on the second item in the menu, Shoot Off/Coin
Toss Status Printout, which will print a document with the names of tied archers, see Figure 3.11.

==Inputting results==

Inputting results of Elimination and Final Rounds is a simple task. In the '''''Individual Finals/Team Finals'''''
menu (see Figure 4.8) the software offers the following options.

<placeholder: Figure 4.8: Individual Finals menu>

===Scorecard Printout===
As per its title, this command enables the user to print Scorecards for the Final
Rounds (see Figure 4.9). The software upholds two types of scorecards: '''Single score with all
matches''' (on the ''left'') and S'''core for single match''' (on the ''right''). These two types of scorecards
only differ for their convenience. The right templates combine all Elimination and Final Rounds for a
single athlete on a ''single sheet'', as the archer will have to keep the scorecard up to the last match shot,
the other templates are divided per ''match'', as shown by columns divisions.
From the ''graphic'' point of view, it is recommended to print a blank scorecard each time, without
previous scores from shot Elimination and Final Rounds. It is, then, suggested to avoid using these
scorecards, except for tournaments in which electronic scoring devices are in use, or when enough
volunteers are available to collect and rearrange scorecards, for the data inputting before proceeding in
the tournament might be significantly time consuming.
As for the previous printouts pages, the software offers all the needed files, divided by Matches in the
''first row'', Division and Class, in the ''second row'', and for the user selection in the scroll-down window
''in the lowest part''. The user can also print Labels for each single athlete for the Final Rounds, just
as for Qualification Rounds. Similarly, in the single scorecard area, the user can print scorecards with
all the values from single arrows (available for tournaments in which electronic scoring devices are in
use). Scrolling down the page, the software offers other printouts, including blank scorecards without
names and, eventually, the chance of printing participants to Elimination and Final Rounds, by choosing
to print all the archers, or just the wished athletes.

===Athlete Numbers===
Similarly to the Qualification Rounds, the user can print Athlete Numbers for the Final
Rounds (see Figure 4.10).

<placeholder: Figure 4.10: Athlete Numbers Printout for the Final Rounds.>

===Data insert (Bracket view)===
This is the most efficient way of inputting data for Elimination Rounds.
Clicking on this command, the software will open a drop-down menu, from which the user can manage
the wished event. After choosing and confirming the selected option, the application will display a
bracket template, with the same framework of Elimination and Final Rounds, but with names and boxes
for inputting scores (see Figure 4.11).

<placeholder: Figure 4.11: Data insert in Bracket view.>

===N.B.===
Before choosing any event, the user should select any shot-offs that need breaking from the dropdown menu on the right (''Manage Tie-Break''), to input any scores from the corresponding shoot-offs.

For inputting scores, both in the ''Set Systems'' and in the ''Cumulative Systems'', the user has to click
[Enable] on the wished column, to edit the scores fields. In case of Byes, the user has to choose the
option ‘Bye’ in the drop-down menu beside the winner’s name. By default, the program will make the
athlete advance to the following rounds. Should an athlete have no opponents, i@nseo will move the
archer directly to the next round.

In case of tied matches, the user has to input the score of each shoot-off arrow in the last empty box on
the left of each row and, then, select ‘Tie Winner’ in the drop-down menu beside the winner’s name.
In case of tied scores, usually, a star is added after the score of the shoot-off arrow of the winner athlete
(for it is the closest to the face center; see Figure 4.12).

<placeholder: Figure 4.12: Inputting Byes and Shoot-offs scores.>

===Data insert (Table view)===
Another way of inputting scores during Elimination and Final Rounds is using
the Table view. In this case, the page won’t display brackets, but a chart, from which the user can input
both ''scores of single ends'', and ''set/cumulative scores''. For a standard tournament, when
electronic devices are not in use, the effectiveness of this scoring method is significantly lessened. Plus,
in the first top row, the software offers a list of commands to browse the wished round of matches, as
the user can move to the ''Previous Phase'' or to the ''Next Phase'', view the ''Brackets'' up until then,
and print the ''Next Phase Scorecards'' (even for a single match, obviously), or the ''Next Phase
Names'' to prepare athletes name stands (see Figure 4.13).

<placeholder: Figure 4.13: Data insert in Table view.>

===Spotting===
This function is used for the '''Arrow by Arrow''' inputting. It enables the user to input the match
results live, and, consequently, on sight. This method is meant for national tournaments and
international competitions (see Par. 5.9).

===Printout===
See Par. 4.4.

===Speaker===
This page enables the announcer to read the general overview of all the running Elimination
and Final Rounds, both ended or not, to promptly announce the results to onsite spectators. It is
meant for international competitions and national tournaments (see Par. 5.10).

Likewise, the user can also manage Team Matches. The procedure is similar, as it starts by setting the
tournament field in the same way of the Individual Finals, opening the command
'''''Competition'' → T''eam Finals Setup'''''
and printing ''Brackets'', ''Scorecards'' and ''Results'', using the menu for '''Team Finals'''. All the tasks follow
the same procedure that has been previously described for the Individual Finals management.

==Final Rounds Printout==

This menu integrates all Printout commands and templates available in the software. Opening the main page
and clicking on ''Printout'', the following commands will be displayed (see Figure 4.14):

<placeholder: Figure 4.14: Printout menu.>

===Participant Lists===
It enables the user to print all the Participants in the tournament (see Figure 2.40 and
Figure 2.41 in Par. 2.4).

===Statistics===
This command prints all the Statistics about the competition (see Figure 2.37 in Par. 2.4).

===Div/Class Result List===
From this function, the user can print rankings for Qualification Rounds (see Figure
3.11 in Par. 3.1).

===Qualification Round Printout===
From this command, the user can print Final Rankings for the
tournament to be used in the Elimination and Final Rounds (see Figure 3.12 in Par. 3.1).

===Final Rounds===
This function prints rankings for the Final Rounds, using both Brackets and Final Rankings
templates (see Figure 4.15).

<placeholder: Figure 4.15: Rankings Printout for Final Rounds.>

===Header for Result Printouts===
It enables the user to input a row, based on the tournament management
(e.g. ''non-official results''), on rankings to be printed, simply selecting the Session and entering the
wished text in the empty box (see Figure 4.16).

<placeholder: Figure 4.16: Header for Result Printouts page.>

===Awards Ceremony Management===
From this section, the user can manage the Awards Ceremony for
archers in the tournament, choosing the ''Number of Awarded Athletes'' for each event, the ''Name
of the Cup'' and the ''Awarder''. It is mainly meant for Awards Ceremonies of international competitions
and national tournaments (see Figure 4.17).

<placeholder: Figure 4.17: Awards Ceremony Management page.>

===Awards Printout===
This command prints the Awards Ceremony schedule including Athletes, Awards and
Awarders entered in the previous section.

===Print Sign===
From this section, the user can print any Sign (e.g. any direction) needed for correctly directing
athletes on the tournament field. Usually, the first row includes any instructions, and the second one
should add any directions. Symbols usually typed in the rows are ‘>’ for the ''Right Turn Indication'',
‘<’ for the ''Left Turn Indication'' and ∧∧ for the ''‘Go Straight’ Indication''. These symbols should
be entered without adding any other character. Otherwise, the program will add that alphanumeric
character in the print (see Figure 4.18).
