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. |

The Individual and Team Finals, also called Elimination (up to 1/8) and Final (from 1/4 to medals) Rounds, are usually the most important |
|||
Before starting the Elimination Round, the user has to check for any tied scores, mainly, in the last place |
|||
stages in a tournament. Though they can seem hard to be managed at first, once the user gets used to the basic |
|||
granting access to the Finals. When there are tied archers, the user can check their ranking through the windows |

|||
Before starting the matches, ties need to be solved in order to send athletes from ranking round to the correct places in the brackets. Ties can be solved through ''Shoot Offs'' (SO) or ''Coin Tosses'' (CT), depending on the rules of the competition. Usually SO are needed for the last positions in the "saved" places (the ones granting direct access to a different phase than the first one) or the last positions of the bracket places. Ties in other positions are usually solved with Coin Tosses. |

{{Note|type=error|text=Once ties are resolved, redoing the procedure will void the matches already done!}} |
|||
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. |
|||
The procedure starts selecting <code>Individual Finals => Check shoot-off before final phases</code>, the submenu differ if no events have been checked or at least one has been solved. The red highlighted events in the menu item show which events have not been checked yet. |

<div style="overflow: hidden">[[File:Individual-Finals-Ties-01.png|thumb|List of Events to check/checked]] |

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''). |

The list of events to check is presented, on the left the dot shows the status of each event: a green dot means all done, a red dot means the check needs to be performed. |

Checks need to be performed one event at a time. |

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 |

==Setting the Field Layout== |
|||
Before explaining how to manage matches and the related printouts, the user has to set up a quick, but |
|||
important, section, related to the Field Layout for Finals, which could rise planning issues, as organizing |
|||
committees perfectly know. To manage the Field Layout setup, the user should open the page: |
|||
<div style="overflow: hidden">[[File:Individual-Finals-Ties-PDF.png|thumb|Tie score and SO scorecard PDF]] |
|||
'''Competition → Individual Finals Setup.''' |
|||
For each Event, a recap of the number of SO and CT to be done is shown. A PDF with the scorecards for the SO can be printed to hand to the judges. Instead of a single status per Event, a global status can be printed from the <code>Individual Finals => Shoot Off/Coin Toss Status Printout</code> menu item |

</div> |
|||
<div style="overflow: hidden">[[File:Individual-Finals-Ties-02.png|thumb|CT and SO panel]] |

In this section, the user can set a list of parameters that enable organizing committees to manage all the tasks |

[[File:Individual-Finals-Ties-03.png|thumb|Tie score panel after CT and SO]] |
|||
related to Individual and Team Finals (see Figure 4.3). |
|||
Clicking on an Event, the ranking round results of the qualified archers is shown, with selects in case of CT (yellow rows) and selects+input fields to insert the points of the SO. |
|||
An <code class="button">Automatic Coin Toss Assignments</code> button at the bottom right of the page helps speeding the CT by assigning randomly a position to the CT. SO need to be assigned manually based on the rules. |
