When players come to register, you can type in their player name or you can have a simple bar code scanner to scan their APA card on CompuSport App (we have a bar code on the app for APA too).
Based on the players skill the brackets available for his skill level will appear.
You can then select the minis you want to register. APA are having player levels (3 to 7) and each minis have levels so if you scan a Level 4 player, only minis that are open for Level 4 will be available.
APA are using 80mm printer to print a voucher but it's not mandatory.
When the mini is full, it is ready to shuffle. the bracket will be shuffled automatically, added to a continuous play group with surfaces and tables are assigned automatically. Also made public automatically as soon as full.
If it's not full and you want to start it, you can shuffle it manually and the system will create a bye. Under Shuffle > Shuffle this group.
The score sheet 413 is used with wins.
When the bracket is finished, You can go to Results/Pay > Pay Player.
