Use paper judging and bubble sheets
Print judging sheets and safely transcribe scanned paper scores.Use paper judging and bubble sheets
Paper judging provides a backup or primary workflow when judges score vehicles away from a shared device. Configure the judging form before printing so every sheet matches the fields staff will later enter.
Prepare sheets
- Open Edit event → Judging Form → Paper.
- Choose the detailed or simple paper layout and review the preview.
- Print a test sheet at actual size, confirm every score option and vehicle identifier is readable, then print the required quantity.
- Decide who will distribute, collect, mark, and transcribe completed sheets.
When the event has bubble-sheet scanning enabled, the printed QR code identifies the event. Keep sheets flat, use clear marks, and do not reuse one sheet for multiple vehicles.
Scan and transcribe
- Open Judging and start the bubble-sheet scanner when that action is available.
- Scan the sheet's QR code. A code for another event or an invalid sheet is rejected.
- Type or bubble the attendee number, then verify the loaded owner and vehicle before continuing.
- Transcribe each marked score, compare the calculated total with the paper sheet, and save.
- Confirm the saved judging status, then mark the paper sheet as entered.
Scanning assists transcription; it does not replace human review. Resolve unclear or multiple marks with the judge before saving. The scanner appears only when bubble-sheet support is enabled for the deployment, so retain a manual entry process and do not assume every device will offer it.
