Check that every judge is scoring

Panel coverage lists every judge and entrant pair that still has no score, so you know who to chase before you close the round.

In a round, every judge on the panel should score every entrant. Panel coverage checks that. Each row is one judge scoring one entrant, marked Submitted when their scorecard is in and Outstanding when it is not.

Check coverage

  1. Open the round from Rounds, then View
  2. Choose the Panel Coverage tabThe number on the tab is how many scorecards are still outstanding. It is amber while some are missing and green when none are.
  3. Look for Outstanding rowsEach shows the entrant and the judge who has not scored them yet.
The Panel Coverage tab of the Question and Answer round, with a badge showing 23. A table lists each entrant against each of the five judges with a green Submitted tag and the time it was submitted. Entrants later in the list show a red Outstanding tag instead.
  1. Panel Coverage tab.
  2. Outstanding count: 23 scorecards are still missing in this example.
  3. The judge who owes the score.
  4. Status: Submitted when the scorecard is in, Outstanding when it is not.

Every row is a pair, so a round with 10 entrants and 5 judges has 50 rows. The entrants appear in the order set for the contest.

What to do about outstanding rows

  • Ask the judge to score the entrant on their own screen. The row turns to Submitted as soon as they do.
  • If a judge cannot score, a staff member can enter the score for them. See Enter and amend scores.
  • Do not close the round, and do not compute it, while rows are still outstanding unless you mean to leave them out.
Who sees the tab. Super Admin, Admin, Moderator and Auditor see it on every round. A Tabulator sees it only on rounds they are crewed on, unless they are also a Moderator. The panel itself is set up under Configure what a round scores.

On the dashboard

The dashboard also has a live coverage view that shows the same gaps across open rounds, so you can watch from the first screen you open. See Read the dashboard.
