Mini B.O.S / B.O.S.

Clicking on the menu “Mini B.O.S / B.O.S.” you can access the mini B.O.S or the B.O.S. section of the menu.

Notice that the entries that will compete in these instances must have been selected as qualified for said rounds (this can be done by the head judge during judging or by the administrator from the Judging => Scores menu, and from there selecting the entries that go to the Mini B.O.S. or B.O.S. as appropriate). The latter is done as follows:

Once the entries for the Mini B.O.S. or for the B.O.S. have been selected and having entered Judging => Mini B.O.S / B.O.S., you then access a screen similar to the one below:

In order to carry out the mini B.O.S. or B.O.S., you must make sure that the panels that will judge in these rounds are configured to do so. This is done by going to Administration => Judging Sessions and then choosing the panel and setting the desired round type.

The head judge of the mini B.O.S or B.O.S. can then rank entries by dragging them from the center column to the right column, or eliminate them by dragging the entry cards to the left column. In this instance only the head judge needs to use an electronic device (computer, cellphone, tablet). It is important to remind that the number of award positions is defined in Settings => Judging Options by the Administrator. Notes on each entry can be written by clicking on “Add notes”, and information about the style being judged can be accesses by clicking on “Guidelines”.

Once the head judge finishes placing entries in the desired podium positions, he/she must click on Finish to define the mini B.O.S.

And then he/she must confirm the final positions (as seen in the following example).

You can navigate (as an administrator) between the different mini B.O.S or B.O.S sessions by clicking on the drop-down menu:

The head judge’s interface and navigation are slightly different when judging in one of these rounds. See images below. More information here: https://docs.beerawardsplatform.com/brewer/.
